Review
I purchased my 1997 3.5RL w/ 38K in
2000 and three year and 60K miles later
I still enjoy the car. The exterior
paint and interior fit/finish have held
up well-(it gets pampered at the car
wash weekly). The only complaint I have
with the car is that It seems to eat
brakes every 15-19K miles. Houston's
traffic may not help. Look forward to
owning a 2005,hopefully with a
V8&navigation
system.

I bought this car used and it is the
best I have owned. The ride is
incredible. The fit and finish is
outstanding. With Acura reliability you
can't lose!

Review
I purchased mine last year with 30K
miles (now it has 40). It's a fantastic
vehicle. It's my 2nd Acura and I have
loved them both. The guy giving the
poor rating may need to check recalls --
if he meant upper control arms, they
are typically replaced with the ball
joints (covered by a recall for 1997
RLs). I had mine replaced at no
charge, and since then, it's been great.

I have been driving my 3.5RL Premium
(includes heated seats) for 1 1/2
years. My wife and I love the looks,
comfort, and driveability of this car.
It was purchased as a certified vehicle
and drove as new when I purchased. I
currently have 75xxx miles and it still
drives like new. I got a great car at
1/2 price of new one.

the review written below is obviously
biased. maybe his/her car was a
lemon. i've had mine for about 4-5
years now, it never any a single
problem! i've even gotten into an
accident with this car but still
performs like day 1. this car is very
very comfortable to drive (but not
really fun to drive as my Bimmer) and
reliability is far beyond expectation
(well, it is basically a honda so you
know what i am saying). bottom line:
don't avoid buying an RL like the other
guy said. i would recommend this car to
any one!

This car is owesome, I hope I spelled
it right. But this car feels like the
most comfortable car in the world.
Probably not more comfortable than a
Cadi... but it is for sure up on that
range.

Review
During the 5 years that I have owned
this vehicle, the 5th year has been a
MONEY PIT. I have replaced both arms
at $686 each, both rear window motors
and now have an emmission contol
problem. I now have to take the
vehicle in YET AGAIN because of a
revving engine. I would avoid
purchasing an Acura 3.5RL
