Chomping on The Competition.

50 additional horses,19"/20" wheels, 10" dash-matching wood strip or carbon fiber on steering wheel,red brake calipers, 20% exhaust upgrade and Mercedes,BMW. and other luxury brands would be selling fewer cars. Absolutely beautiful.

Most Reliable Car i have ever owned.

This is a beautiful Acura RL. The vehicle drives extremely well for a luxury car, the way it handles and most importantly how safe it feels, especially in the snow.

Best car , luxury, sporty, technical

I bought used and I love it , it's got everything I was looking for with low miles. More comfortable and peppy than Lexus , just wish exterior looks more sporty but this was not the primary goal of this sedan

Nothing compares!!

I've owned Mercedes, BMW and Audi sedans and nothing beats the reliability, value and prestige of an Acura RL!! Best choice I've ever made. Don't waste your time buying anything else!

Best overall car I have ever owned

Best all all around car I have ever owned - the AWD is awesome, particularly in snow, and it is fitted with luxury amenities FAR ahead of its time - dual temp controls, dual seat warmers, built in rear window shades and power back window shade, back up camera, VTEC, XM, Navigation,etc etc.

Great Unloved Ride

you cannot beat the value of the RL - its under appreciated - unloved - this car has a ton of power - is really comfortable - has an awesome AWD transmission - rides smooth - great VTEC motor - all that and mid to high 20's MPG on the highway. I have owned a lot of Acura's this one is the best. Never understood why this car was not more popular.

Great car for the money!

This car has all of the features that you would want in a luxury sedan. Heated leather seats, keyless entry, power everything, navigation, back-up camera, and the list goes on and on. There are so much features on this car that I I haven't discovered everything there is to know yet. The car rides smooth and takes corners really well thanks to the super handling all wheel drive. The power is sufficient for this car at 290 horsepower. The gas mileage could be better as I only get around 23 mpg combined.
