2012 Acura RDX

You can be forgiven for mistaking the 2012 Acura RDX for a Honda CR-V, but there are subtle differences and about $10,000 that separate the two cars.

[@applesappleapple]

a KIA competing with an ACURA?? no, i dont think so...

[@jayasmrmore3687]

Which one do you think is better

[@Kana0211]

@@jayasmrmore3687 acura is 10x better

[@oldschool1928]

Sure the GPS looks crunchy and dated but it's still one of the best in the car market. If it works and still gets you where you need to go, no need to change according to Acura. Besides it costs the company lots of $ out of pocket to update the entire GPS OS every year.

[@ForgotToMentionThat]

This car looks better with time!

[@happytimberlake4738]

A Kia! Where dose that come in this segment a Lexus rx350

[@meilee9961]

Now it’s 2019 my dad got the 2011 Acura RDX and we still own it it’s been 8 years and nothing has really broke only the ac system broke and everything else is still pretty good (now he’s saving up for a 2019 mdx)

[@jayasmrmore3687]

Watch Chrisfix, he teaches you how to do simple mechanic work so you only have to go to the dealership for major repairs.

[@applesappleapple]

Yeah I see what you are saying... But if you were looking @ a hyundai or kia, at lets say $25,000, you really won't be looking at a similarly equipped acura at almost $40,000. Also, the quality of the cars are different. For instance, why would you pick a BMW X5 for about $55,000 when you could get a Toyota Highlander, with a similar amount of power and amenities, for less than $40,000? The quality (and the name) really make the car.

[@telj1]

@oldschool1 The price of this RDX warrants the price it would take to update every year. They haven't updated it in awhile. Just saying.

[@normaspirated]

Great engine Fantastic drivetrain Crap tuning from the factory (explains the shitty mpg) Outdated 5 speed auto (also contributes to shitty mpg) Honda should drop this engine and sh-awd drive train w/ a 6 speed manual in a civic si. Almost guaranteed they'd own the sport compact segment again a la '99-'00.

Can you off-road in this vehicle? Can you tow something heavy like a boat behind this vehicle?

[@Autofanatic28]

Mr. Cooley, can you review the new refreshed 2012 Honda Pilot? I want to know your impressions on the vehicle with a updated new gadgets.

[@Autofanatic28]

@remelsheikh This car not in the same class FX. This would be best compared with the EX model.

[@mace2142]

@ename17 oh sorry, though i could.. just now i could swear i had 1m dollers invested in IBOVESPA, brazil´s stock market.. and that my father owned a 400m doller distribution comprany called "logon". but it must have been just a dream.

[@daviddang82]

damn acura update the damn thing.. nothing special about this thing. just buy a 2010

[@cannonballkid]

@tjpark1111 def Kia has really stepped their game up over the last two years...

[@xg3000]

5-speed auto... that's 2012 Acura/Honda tech. fuel efficient my ass.

[@daviddang82]

@mokos23 true, i prefer the older grill. but honestly.. there are much better options right now. 2012 honda crv and 2013 mazda cx-5. both get great gas mileage. RDX has crap mileage and really isn't that luxurious.

[@jayasmrmore3687]

It depends what you are looking for. Lexus has better reliability and mileage whereas Acura has a faster acceleration and better performance and a more spacious interior yet compact exterior. Mercedes has more luxury in it and towing capacity.

[@coldfeet1337]

@hondaftw1234 what's wrong with a kia again...?

[@adamkiksyou]

2.34 turb... not bad at all.

[@PhreshNBeat]

well their new 2013 rdx will be different and no more 4cylinder turbo.

[@jayasmrmore3687]

Also in 2013 they shifted from an ignition start to a push button instead

[@mikeluscher159]

first

[@hondaftw1234]

Really, a Kia? This car really needs an update, due Next year. Still cheapest in the class though and it starts about 1,200 dollars cheaper than he said.

[@jayasmrmore3687]

In 2013 they updated the ignition with a push button

4wd, it’s called SH-AWD

4th?

[@abcdLeeXY]

[@tiltheendoftim3]

This has got to be one of the ugliest cars I've seen. I think it fits well with the styling of the Pontiac Aztek. They both looks like shit. The styling doesn't compare to its competitors, Audi, BMW, Lexus, or Mercedes Benz

[@jayasmrmore3687]

Then this vehicle is not for you.

[@pattycarljackson]

i love acura but when you think about hyundai and kia suv's they can compete with acura they have better navigation better layout of everything and looks very updated plus great engines and handling such on the new santa fe sport

[@jayasmrmore3687]

The navigation system I don’t mind I just wish it updated on its own

[@Kana0211]

Until the Korean car breaks down

[@igeekone]

This proves yet again Acura has poor designers.

[@jayasmrmore3687]

How?
