RLX Understated Value

2017 Acura RLX Advance Package 4dr Sedan (3.5L 6cyl 6A)

This car is a understated value, Had a BMW prior to buying this car. This car is a lot quieter, rides better/smoother, has better visibility, and interior materials. The BMW hype is just that! I love this Acura RLX Advanced.

I been driving Honda/Acura products for the past 30 years trouble free. This is the last year of an outstanding car. I compared the RL/RLX to other luxury cars, Acura won each time.

Great car only thing i did not like was trade in value on my last car. Comfortable, great handling ,powerful ,reliable,great gas mileage! Bought the Hybrid and get great gas mileage in the city and highway. Have driven the car for over four years and am still quite impressed.Greatly that Acura discontinued this model. I am still driving this car and have no plans to trade it!

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..."
