Bought the car as a lease return. The car has a great ride along with good road feel. Didn't have a repair until it had over 140k. I now have 169K. The leather interior still has no cracks. I use 87 octane gas. No problem. I can't find a good reason to buy another car. The 3.5 RL has lousy resale making it the best value in used car value.
Great Car

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.
Can't get any better!

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!
Great RL!
