Fun to drive, very pepy

Plenty of leg room. Great driving characteristics . Could use a little more trunk space. Like the navigation system. The heated seats work well. Like the deep center console for storage, wife can place whole purse in compartment and lock it up.

Reliable luxury SUV

Very nice car, a better value than other luxury mid-size SUVs that are more expensive but come with less features. The base model is loaded except for technology and other packages of questionable need. In 6 years had needed no repairs, drives like new. Only wish is that premium gas was not needed. Regardless, just bought another new RDX.

Great car

This 2011 is my second 1st Gen. Rdx between the two of them I have about 250k trouble free miles. I would buy again but sadly they don't have a turbo anymore

GREAT CAR FOR THE MONEY

Great car for the money....super fast car...great on road trip to Kentucky ....only problem was rear view mirror too close to windshield to adjust but mew RDX fixed that..Best part of ACURA is one price no extras with or without tech package...we have 52000 miles same tires will make 60000 miles before needing new tires....get 20+ miles per gallon..

Great mid size suv

Very peppy and nice ride. The RDX is sufficient for getting around town or on long road trips. Storage area is sufficient for transporting smaller household items. Dashboard layout is very good though the navigation system could be a little more intuitive. Love this SUV and would highly recommend a test drive as part of your shopping experience.

Great Value

After much consideration decided to trade in our 2004 A6 S as the maintenance costs were getting hard to swallow. Began considering Acura?s based on past experience as we have owned 3, 2 Legends (92, 93) and a RL (96). Great service and excellent cars, but found the RL boring to drive so switched to Audis. It was down to the 2011 Q5 vs. the 2011 RDX and finally ownership costs (purchase and maintenance combined) made the decision. Driving the RDX is terrific, performance is all I could ask for and we expect the lifetime maintenance to reflect Acura?s quality and value. What I not wild about is the interior quality of the some of the materials, cheap looking and not in the Acura image. Same goes for the front end, it?s a bit radical.
