Acura injects logic and understatement into the luxury sport sedan segment. Special thanks to Deion B! Thanks for catching my gaffe on the earlier posting.

I own an Acura 2015 T.L.X four door six cylinder...I bought it used in early September of this year...So far I am really satisfied...It is fast, smooth, has impressive safety features and is fun to drive...The audio is solid too .............................................................................................

I recently purchased a used car at a Acura dealership and really liked the service. I considered an Acura purchase after my experience there, but one thing I did not like about the new Acura's was the paint jobs! Surprisingly enough you can even see an example of the horrible paint job with the orange peel shown at 1:37

I know this is kind of late, but can you please review the Acura RLX Sport Hybrid. Please, I need to know your opinion. A lot of receivers seemed biased, and I don't get from you.
@jeffreysegal20659 жыл бұрын
I'm really surprised at how unexceptional this new model is. There just isn't any aspect that stands out. SH-AWD is not clicking with US drivers, styling is nice but safe, and interior is missing many features commonly found in Hyundais these days. Same could be said of ILX also. If there's a rabbit in their hat, now would be the time for Acura to pull it out.

I don't understand those people that don't test drive their cars comparatively. I'd say test drive 5-7 cars to be honest and that's only after you've decided on new vs used/CPO. If you're looking at new and used cars, you might want to test drive at least 8-9 cars then and spread them out so that you have some time to gather your thoughts.

I feel like the Japanese luxury automakers seem to be acting a bit confused lately. Lexus have that weird joystick interface, Infiniti named everything Q for no particular reason, and Acura seems to be struggling with its own identity. Hence this car has two screens, and thought competent, it seems to struggle to be something outside of a lux-trimmed honda. It's not bad, just kinda faceless. It's a shame, because I want these brands to be great again. Infiniti G35, Lexus LS and Acute TL were great cars, and once lexus game germany a genuine challenge. It's time they showed they were exceptional again.

If only the ILX was an adequate replacement for either the TSX or Integra, and the TLX wasn't a combination of the bad from the two cars it replaces. As good as this car is, there's no compelling reason to buy it over an accord ex-l, or any Acura over its Honda counterpart for that matter. That being said a TLX V6 manual coupe with SH-awd would be nice. But will that happen, no.

Acura needs to bring back some turbos, they used to have one in the RDX. Until then, they will remain underwhelming.

In Canada, Tech and Elite trims do have heated rear seats. We just test drove one a few months ago, and the only way this car makes sense for us is fully loaded as a SH-AWD model, with the ventilated front seats, ACC and CMBS etc. Still very happy with our 2007 TL Type S, which is FWD, though.

Acura has a lot to learn about how to paint cars. Before you buy, take a good look at the paint in the shade and away from the sun. Paint spray marks and blotchy areas are very apparent on the top surfaces. They say this is normal and their CEO is in on it to. Buy the Audi!

Acura should stop fooling the car industry and change it's name back to Honda. It is not a luxury level brand. In Japan, the RLX is the Honda Legend. C'mon guys, stop trying to front.

TLX is copy and paste of older TL model, with back of TSX. It's really ugly and too many other competitors that offer way more for less.
