We purchased car January, 2016 - love it - first new car in a long time and very happy with purchase even though it was on the high end of our budget. Car is very comfortable to drive and is made well. Technology is very easy to figure out and has lots of cool features. Took ride up to Minnesota and ride was very stress free with cruise control system features. Smooth quiet ride. Some reviews state navigation system is cumbersome and at times it is, but no different then using a Garmin. Sound system is great and love the HDD CD Drive. Even though dealers do not deal much in price we found a much better deal at an Illinois dealer vs Milwaukee area and they were great! Hope we get lots of years out of it and it holds it value.

We expected the RDX to be a great car but it has exceeded all our expectations. The tech packages work fantastic. The only issue is it offers so much tech that we keep learning new ways to operate the vehicle. The car is very quiet, the ride is smooth and the mileage is very good for a new vehicle. I would recommend the RDX to anyone looking for a smaller vehicle but needs lots of room for riders (I'm 6"2" and my son is 6'5" and sits comfortably in the front seats.)

Assume the usual: great quality, good dealer, power, good fuel economy, useful interior, only thing I've done is change the oil in 1 year. The downsides: confusing owner's manual, slight blind spot on left front side, I've got wind noise at speed from I assume the outside mirror. After 1 year I still don't know how to do a lot of the controls even after reading the manual several times (and I have the base model). Not an exciting car but then I'm dull myself. It's a great, useful vehicle but not a sporty SUV.

After One Year...

Having given the base RDX a good year of use and driving 13k+ miles, I can report the following: THE GOOD (1) Ride is very comfortable, (2) road noise is low, (3) no issues with electronics or connecting my iPhone, (4) faux leather cleans up easily, (5) VERY fast and responsive acceleration, (6) nice, tight feel to the ride, (7) good sound system, (8) cabin is comfortable and solid feeling. Now the NOT SO GOOD (1) HORRIBLE, I repeat, HORRIBLE gas mileage. I get a combined 19 MPG, and probably only around 14 MPG around town - I was shocked at the numbers coming off owning a Honda CR-V. For this reason alone, I will probably look at other brands for my next car. If you live in a flat area of the country and never use the AC, perhaps you'll get better mileage. (2) storage and cargo space is lacking and not very well thought out, (3) NO spare tire, and (4) jerky feel to the transmission when slowing/downshifting.

As Good as Advertised and Better in Some Ways

This is a really great car. I got out of a BMW X5 for this one and the RDX is way better than my old bimmer. The main thing I was looking for was a silky ride with a very quiet cabin. I get both with this RDX. The power train is exceptional with the standard v6. The cabin is very quiet although some what less so than Edmunds reviews said. Where Edmunds gave it an "A" - I would say it's probably a "B" or "B+". It is quiet at low speeds but gets louder on highways. As a plus, the ELS stereo on the Technology Package is an incredible system that makes the feint noise go away, replaced with beautiful music. Navigation system is lame, use Google maps instead. Edmunds says the screen controls for the tech is "confusing" but I disagree. If this control panel confuses you, you probably shouldn't be buying something called a technology package. Love this car. It's the best I've ever personally owned.
