When I first picked my RL up I was a bit anxious about all the new technology, but after days of playing and asking questions I fell in love with my car. I feel like a female Bond in it. The handling is superior to my other vehicles including my Lexus. It's built strong but sleek. It gets lots of head turns at the gas pump.
Worth your money

If you are looking for a 50,000 car that won't turn heads, the new RL is for you. even in the dealers lot you'll have a hard time telling the Rl from acura's lineup. Get inside though and the fun begins, actually even before I got into the car the keyless entry thing is way cool (no more fumbling for keys). the interior design is very sensible and pleasing to the eye, the nav is great (i'm coming from a 01 mdx) and this rl nav blows it away. The power and confidence of this machine is awesome, pull away from a traffic light and watch people on the side shaking their head asking each other "what was that". my only problem is finding a comfortable position,(coming from a suv)

This car is everything I expected and more. Smooth silky performance, luxury feel at every touch, and as much fun as a sport sedan can offer. I was waiting for the M35 AWD to launch but saw my Redondo Red RL and fell in love.
Great Car with some problems

I read up a lot about this car before I bought and have generally been very happy with it. However, about 2 mos after purchase, a rattle developed in the driver side dash. I have taken it to the dealership three times to have this corrected and they have yet to fix it permanently. They freely admit that this is a common problem with this new model and that the factory has no good fix for it. A $50K car should not have a problem like this. I like the way it handles and the overall comfort level. The voice activated system is "over the top" and generally unnecessary (there are more that 4 ways to adjust radio volume alone, why not just turn the knob?). The all wheel drive is great.
