This is the ultimate luxury SUV you've been waiting for!

I have got a treat for you today.  This has got to be one of the nicest Acura RDX's I've ever seen!  Regardless of the mileage!  This is a one owner truck, and they really did love this car.  Driving it with care every minute it was on the road.  This car runs and drives just like new.  It's still as tight as the day they purchased it off the showroom floor.  The truck has only received the best care its whole life. All we've got to say about this one is wow!  Here's a deal of a lifetime.  If you've always wanted an Acura RDX but were never able to afford one, or if you want to save some serious money and get the same SUV you could get for much more with normal miles that still gives you the level of performance and prestige that you'd come to expect from driving new vehicles then you've found your truck!  The mileage on the ad was not a misprint.  This van really has 128,430 actual miles on it.  Now if that wasn't an accomplishment in itself, this SUV still looks, runs, and feels just like it was new.  I kid you not.  In fact, I have driven these Acura RDXs with as low as 35,000 miles and we sincerely feel like this one drives and handles just as nice as a SUV with that kind of low mileage!   They treated this SUV with the level of care that I have never seen before.  I have always known that these RDXs were built to last over 300,000 miles, but I never thought they would look like this when they were getting up there.   This suv is in better condition than most 50,000 mile trucks I come across.   Without a doubt this truck's mileage was accumulated almost exclusively by highway use which has kept the wear and tear to a minimum.  According to this truck's clean title history, this truck is a one owner, Texas truck!  The truck has never been smoked in!  With the high level of care this truck's owner gave this truck even at this mileage we have no doubt that you will get many more years of pleasure out of this truck!
 

Here's the one that you've been waiting for!  A well cared for, affordable Acura RDX that's completely decked out with all the options!  This one has it all! It's jam packed with features including the turbo 2.3 liter 4 Cylinder engine, 4x4 all wheel drive system, leather interior, premium wheels, all power, power seat, cruise control, Acura Stereo /w In-Dash CD, front Heated Seats, Rear Air, Keyless Entry, Premium Wheels, overhead console, fog lamps, automatic transmission, and much, much more!   They completely filled this truck with options!  You will be in total luxury when you are driving this truck!
 

This truck has an incredible color combination, Black on the outside with Gray leather on the inside, very attractive indeed!  Black really brings out the best in this truck!  I wouldn't have it in any other color!  The truck is in incredible condition. It really has been well kept!  For a 2008 model, this truck does have some mileage with 128,430 wonderfully maintained, carefully driven, one owner miles.  Its a well known fact that these Acuras are very reliable and the 2.3 liter 4 Cylinder engine at the heart of this truck lasts for hundreds of thousands of miles with proper care.  128,000 miles is just the tip of the iceberg with this truck!  This is a one owner, non smoker's truck.  This truck has no rust and shows no signs of ever developing rust in the future.   This truck really is in fantastic shape!  After seeing this truck you'll consider yourself silly for wanting to spend big bucks on a new one when you can get a quality pre owned one that's this nice!  The truck has a clean history report showing only one Texas owner.  This is a non smoker's truck and it really shows. Everything is very clean inside!  You'll really be impressed with how nice this truck's interior is!  It's just stunning!  The a/c is very cold and the heat is just as hot. All the windows, locks, seats, and mirrors work great!   It also has cruise control which makes those highway drives much easier. To be in total comfort, you have the fully power adjustable seat!  Both front seats are heated for extra comfort!  No warning lights remain illuminated on the dash after the vehicle is started, just as it's supposed to be.  The factory Acura premium stereo produces incredible sound and does feature a in-dash CD!  For your safety, you have dual front and side airbags as well as keyless entry along with the alarm!  You really won't be able to believe how clean the car is!  The exterior is also in beautiful condition showing only minimal wear.   The paint is beautiful and very shiny.  You'll really be impressed with how nice the truck looks and drives.  You can really appreciate the effort that the truck's owner made to keep it looking nice!  The factory premium alloy wheels are beautiful and are matched to a very good set of tires!  As a special bonus you get all the truck's books with a keyless entry alarm transmitter!
 

If the looks of this wonderful truck didn't already impress you, then getting behind the wheel and driving it will give you a whole new perspective on how an SUV can drive!  You have plenty of power to get on the highway thanks to the top of the line 2.3 Liter 4 Cylinder engine that this truck offers!  It sticks to the road when you are going through turns, unlike any other SUV I've ever driven! The truck actually feels stable at high speeds.  You can do 80 in this truck without feeling like you're going to fly off the road.  It will seem silly to purchase a new/newer one when this one looks just as nice and drives just as good and costs thousands less!  The truck's suspension is still very tight.  It glides over bumps effortlessly and holds well in the turns!  The engine, while very comfortable and smooth does have all the power that you need.  Acceleration is very smooth thanks to all the torque that the engine provides.  You really feel in control of the truck when its accelerating!   The 2.3 liter 4 Cylinder engine is impeccable condition.  It has plenty of power to take on whatever you would need to use it for!  You won't believe how powerful this truck is!   It'll offer more than enough power to pass other cars on the highway. The automatic transmission shifts very smooth, just as it should.  It functions normally other than the defect noted above. The all wheel drive still works nicely, just as it should! We noticed no flaws at all in the engine and transmission, everything works as it should.   The truck even features cruise control for those long highway drives!  You won't realize what a bargain this truck is until you get behind the wheel and realize how well this truck has been kept!  This really is an opportunity of a lifetime!
 

You will have a very hard time finding a truck that's this nice for such little money.  This truck is really a value with a selling price well below any guidebook's standards.  This would make a great truck for anyone.   You'll have a very hard time finding another truck that's this nice, and there's a good chance that it won't be completely decked out with almost every factory option that make this a truly special SUV, and they'll want more for it than what we're prepared to sell this truck for!   This truck has all the features you could ever want.  It is incredibly hard to find a 2008 model of anything that is this nice, and a good one owner ownership history!  Those kind of vehicles simply are not around anymore. You'll really see the benefit of getting a car that's a one owner.  When someone pays the full sticker price for the truck they tend to take steps to make sure that the car stays in good condition while they're driving it as they remember what the truck looked like when it was brand new!  The reserve is low and we anticipate it being met well before the end of the auction.  That's right, we actually plan on selling this fine truck at the end of the auction.  Make sure you have the high bid because this truck will sell!  This may be your last chance to get a high quality RDX with all the options! You will not be disappointed! Bid early and follow the auction to the end, don't let another bidder with a couple of quick clicks of the mouse in the final minutes of the auction take your dream car away from you!   Don't settle for second best!  Get the truck you have always dreamed of owning!  Don't let this wonderful opportunity pass you by!

2019 Acura RDX compact crossover goes into production in Ohio

Wed, May 16 2018

Acura has kicked off production of the all-new 2019 RDX, capping a $54 million investment in new technologies and processes at its plant in East Liberty, Ohio, where the compact crossover will be built. It goes on sale starting in June, though prices are yet to be announced. The RDX is Acura's best-selling model, and the 2019 model was designed and developed in the U.S. for the first time. Acura says it's the first in a new generation of vehicles based on its Precision Crafted Performance brand direction, which is based on the Precision Concept and Precision Cockpit concepts from 2016. Honda's investment in its East Liberty Auto Plant brought two firsts for a mass-produced Acura: a new roller hemming process for the crossover's large panoramic sliding moonroof and the use of high-performance structural adhesives to increase body rigidity. It also gets a new multi-layer paint system to handle the new premium exterior color options. The RDX is powered by a 2.0-liter four-cylinder VTEC Turbo engine built in nearby Anna, Ohio. It makes 272 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque and is paired with Acura's 10-speed automatic, made at the company's transmission plant in Tallapoosa, Ga. Also notable is the "Super Handling All-Wheel Drive" system, which shifts more power to the rear axle to improve handling. It also gets a new, lightweight Acura-only platform that stiffens the body and adds more interior room and cargo space. Acura is also debuting a new True Touchpad Interface in the RDX that offers a unique one-to-one position with the 10.2-inch center display screen that works a little differently than a traditional cursor interface. You can read our review of it here. Related Video: Featured Gallery 2019 Acura RDX production Image Credit: Acura Plants/Manufacturing Acura Crossover acura rdx

A smoother operator | 2017 Acura MDX Sport Hybrid First Drive

Tue, Apr 4 2017

There's a lot to unpack when trying to understand the 2017 Acura MDX Sport Hybrid. Acura is billing it as a three-row crossover infused with NSX technology via a sport-oriented hybrid drivetrain. So it's a hybrid crossover, sure. But it doesn't comport itself like a traditional crossover, nor is it a conventional hybrid. What it is, underneath, is an intentionally subtle blend of impressive technologies doing their best to appear transparent – and it's too subtle, I fear, to be appreciated by those who'd like it the most. This is a lot of foreshadowing, but if you're not familiar with the MDX Sport Hybrid's powertrain, let's fill you in. The MDX Sport Hybrid uses the same basic system as the 2014 RLX Sport Hybrid, with some newer NSX battery tech sprinkled in, packaged neatly into the refreshed third-generation MDX platform. The system improves handling and efficiency – but more important, it smoothes out the harshness of shifts and engine stop-starts. We do need to examine the system in some detail to understand how all this affects the MDX as a whole, so let's go toe to tail. Up front is a transversely-mounted 3.0-liter V6 making 257 horsepower and 218 pound-feet of torque, as well as featuring i-VTEC and cylinder deactivation. It's slightly smaller than the 3.5-liter V6 found in the conventional MDX and many other Honda and Acura products. Attached alongside is a Honda-produced 7-speed dual-clutch transmission that has a 47 hp, 109 lb-ft electric motor-generator stuffed inside. Amidships are the battery pack and the electronics to control it, and stretching aft from there are large cables feeding power to a pair of electric motors that reside in single housing, one for each wheel. Together, they produce electron witchcraft and torque-delivery wizardry – and add 72 hp and 108 lb-ft of torque to the mix. The total system output is 321 hp and 289 lb-ft of torque – a gain of 31 hp and 22 lb-ft over the conventional MDX SH-AWD. Beyond the raw numbers, there's the remarkable subjective benefit of the Sport Hybrid's drivetrain. Engine start-stop events are quiet and smooth, nearly imperceptible when under way – in stark contrast to the too-perceptible shudder of competing engines kicking on. The electric motors (mainly the one residing in the transmission) add in power to make up for the lull during a shift, making shifts up or down seamless, as well as providing regenerative capacity.
