Meh...it's okay
I bought this after driving an 2008 Infiniti EX35, and I totally regret the purchase. The good thing is it's a bit cheaper on the 36 month lease, but performance is unwieldy and I'm not happy with the interior build quality.
Great car
Handles great, great gas mileage and low maintenance!

Great Vehicle
Excellent service and thorough sales expertise and follow-up. Bob, (internet sales) at Clinton Acura, is an excellent sales person, who takes the time to explain all the features of the vehicle and provided full support throught he sales and after- sales process. The RDX is a great vehicle and performs well on the road. Great pick-up and handling for an SUV.
Not great for a petite woman!
When I test drove the car, it seemed perfect for my height--5'. It is not. Since buying the car and driving it, I'm having difficulty parking it. I can see over the hood, but something about the front end--length?-- causes me parking problems. Seat height limited--needs another 1-2". Seat belt doesn't lower where attached and cuts me across the throat. Passenger seat does not go up and down; husband needs a high seat to enter the car due to back problems and now has a difficult time getting in. Would not have bought the car had I been aware. No push button to lower rear door--have to stand on tip-toe to grasp the handle. Looks more like a station wagon, not SUV. Want my RAV 4 back!
Money Pit
This is my 2nd Acura vehicle. I previously owned a 2005 MDX, which I loved and would have kept if the spark plug hadn't broken off in the engine and ruined it! I purchased this 2012 RDX Turbo used. After less than 2 years of owning it, the transmission had to be replaced. I admit, I put about 30K on in in those 2 years, but I also did EVERY suggested and required maintenance! This vehicle has been nothing but a money pit ever since.
