What did you like about the vehicle?

"The RDX drives like a car - which is great for a two ton car and a 4cyl. I found the sightlines great; it had fantastic visibility while driving. I loved the oversized mirrors. It was fantastic to drive on the highway- very smooth."

"It has that classic Acura front and back end. The RDX has a cute compact look to it"

"Just a great drive - not top heavy - really drives like a car."

What did you think of the Fit & Finish and Ride & Handling?

"The ride and handling was very smooth. The interior looked a bit Civic like in my opinion. I am not a fan of the pseudo carbon fiber material look. I did like the deep storage well in the centre consoled - great to put lots of items in. I also loved the amount of controls in the driver's seat."

What did you not like about the vehicle?

"I was surprised that the gauges inside felt a bit Civic like. I'd have to say that the vehicle is not really targeting me - it is a nice smaller cross over. I really liked driving the car, but it felt it wasn't me."

Did driving the vehicle change your impression of the brand?

"I really liked trying out Acura's SH-AWD technology - it worked great and totally makes sense for me. From a marketing perspective it gave me a larger appreciation of what the Schlueter Automotive Group is doing in social media and how it can be used".
