VERY HAPPY WITH NEW ACURA

This Acura RL replaced my BMW 745i. The ride in the Acura is comparable to the BMW---only the Acura is MUCH more reliable. I have had the Acura for 3 months. My BMW had been towed twice in the first three months!

This is nothing short of a dream car—a dream car that you can buy. It's performance is well above the comparable V6 Mercedes, Audi, and BMW competition and it exudes quality all around. The interior is spectacular and the exterior draws looks and questions from strangers everywhere I go. No one builds cars better than Acura these days, at least not for this kind of money. Thrilled with my purchase!

Overall this car is an excellent upgrade to the old dog RL. The all wheel drive is spectacular! We just got a foot of snow in NE PA and this car went through drifts like an SUV. The stability control makes winter driving less worrisome! The 300 hp is not the aggressive hp you will find in sports cars, however, it will acceletare you off the stop light well ahead if it's competitors. At highway speeds, the 300 hp is at its best. Just push the throttle and you are doing 90 MPH before you know it. The interior has all of the technological equipment needed to keep you ammused. The nav system and audio controls are very easy to use and feel natural.

If you're technically challenged, this is not the car for you. But if you love technology and use it, you're gonna love the voice activated technological advances this car offers. By voice one can control the gps system, bluetooth phone, temperature control, audio control and OnStar. Once you figure out how to work everything you never need take your hands from the wheel or your eyes from the road. It corners like the BMW I test drove - maybe better. I think I'm in love!
