This is it!
By Rose on 2/19/2026 2:16:08 AM
I was on the hunt for a reliable car that was both affordable and visually appealing. This car exceeded my expectations and provided everything I desired, plus more. It handles exceptionally well, especially in adverse weather conditions like rain and snow. The car offers weather-specific options that can be activated during your drive for enhanced support. It performs admirably when making sharp or quick turns. The technology inside the car is also impressive. The touchpad may take some time to get used to, but it’s a great feature that prevents fingerprints from smudging the screen. The ambient lighting adds to the overall ambiance. The ride is so smooth that it can be therapeutic, and the comfortable seats contribute to this experience. There’s even a compartment in the front row for storing your purse or bag. There’s so much more to this car that I could write about, but I’ll stop here. I’ve always been a sedan enthusiast, but after driving this SUV, I don’t think I’ll ever go back. I can already envision myself upgrading to another Acura in the future. I have no regrets about my decision. The only regret is not spending a little more and getting this car sooner. - 4.0
Beautiful and fun car
By LanceR on 1/17/2026 6:30:57 AM
I have 2004 A-Spec. Pros are amazing suspension & handling (SH-AWD is so good), incredible 3D stereo, ambient light, 19" tires and black wheels, ventilated and heated seats, comfortable seats, power lift gate, lane assist, and a few super cool hidden compartments in the back for storage, groceries, etc. Cons are lack of power (although it's not horrible), sucky gas mileage, & no auto wipers (unless you get Advanced pkg). - 5.0
2022 RDX
By RM2020 on 12/14/2025 7:52:34 PM
I have a 2022 RDX Advance. Fun car to drive, very comfortable, great features. I know some have compained about the infotainment interface but once you get used to it, very easy to operate. I test drove Mazda, Lexus, Nissan, BMW and Audi before my purchase and the RDX checked off more boxes for me. Have about 70k on it and no troubles at all. Two thumbs up.
