    Not perfect, but plenty good enough

    Traded 2015 RLX w/ 95k, for 2018 SH-AWD w/ 35k. AWD was the draw, plus the HUGE depreciation hit on the '18. Techo wizardry, you can take it or leave it. Great seats for long rides. Acceleration good, put in Sport to really put a smile on your face. Only Toyota can match Honda/Acura reliability - had zero issues in 4 years with the '15 RLX, expect the same experience here.

    Amazing car that did not sell - overpriced msrp

    After driving this car for a while now, I have concluded that this review by Edmunds.com was to say the least HARSH ... with the commentary included here I can find at least 80% of ALL cars they provide reviews where they over-glorified some of the Korean made cars without any common sense or expertise applied - I simply do not agree with their review. I will agree on following however: MSRP was way too high - too overpriced (62k-65k is just beyond any sense) Infotainment is pretty non-intuitive and half-baked The Interior is fairly dated The drive is AMAZING given SH-AWD. They are forgetting this car weighs over 4000lbs... As far as specs go, you will be paying for a german similar spec'd car over 65-70-75k and will still have headaches whenever car needs to go to the shop - germans are NOT reliable cars... they are a society statement "I have money, and I can afford it..."
