Review 1 of 62

Price Paid:  $14800.00 from Baranco Acura Atl. G

Year / Model Reviewed:
1999 Acura 3.5 RL

Summary:
Best vehicle I've owned. Baught it used with 102,000 miles. I took a leap of faith with the high mileage due to good reviews,and glad I did. This vehicle has been maintenance free outside of oil changes and 1 set of brake pads. Good power and still accelerates silky smooth at 156,000 miles,Amazing! If you want to experience honda engineering at it's best this is it.

Strengths:
reliability,quality of fit and finish, engine and transmission, ride and comfort.

Weaknesses:
gas mileage could be better but I've used midgrade to offset cost with no problems

Review 4 of 62

Price Paid:  $45000.00 from Acura of Denville (D

Year / Model Reviewed:
2005 Acura RL

Summary:
Overall a big waste of money. If you like overpaying for cars with obvious faults and like to have no customer care from either the dealer or the company, then the Acura RL is the car for you.

Strengths:
Power adequate. Smart appearance. Comfortable seating. Handles well. Voice activation impressive. Navigation powerful once you learn it.

Weaknesses:
Noisy with lots of squeaks and rattles and wind noise that nobody can fix. Reminds one more of a New York City taxi cab than a 50K luxury car.....poorly designed: for example keyless entry. Sounds good, but if you lock something in you still need the key WITH YOU to get in... zero trunk space. Zero customer care. Dealers could care less. Heqdquarters couldn't give a rats behind whether you are happy either.

Review 5 of 62

Price Paid:  $0.00 from Cloninger Ford Toyot

Year / Model Reviewed:
1997 Acura 3.5 RL

Summary:
I have nothing but praises for this vehicle. I have had it for less than a month. I purchased it used at Cloninger Ford Toyota in NC. So far we have taken it on a mini roadtrip(5 hrs) and it did quite well. It could be a lot better as far as fuel is concerned. Other than that it is a great car.

Strengths:
Luxury, style, design, smooth ride, great handling

Weaknesses:
Fuel usage sucks
