I just bought a 2007 Acura RDX, 2.3L, DOHC 240hp, 260ft lbs torque, SH-AWD (superhandling all wheel drive) drive by wire throttle system with paddle shifters, carbon grey color, turbo and technology package, special speaker system, navigation & camera. The dealer gave me $1700 off which is really not much. I haven't seen too many people driving around in these..I've seen only 2 people since it came out about a month ago.
The RDX allows you to channel your torque to whichever axle you want through the set up screen..so if you want more power flowing to your rears, you can do that.
I get XM satellite radio for free for a few months. I doubt I'll really be listening to that anyways. I'll be pushing the turbo charger.
I will post up my pics asap. I should get my camera by tommorrow. I'm still discovering this car since I got it last thursday. There's alot of things I don't know about it yet.
Here's some pics of an RDX, same everything..looks exactly the same, except mine is a carbon grey which is darker. (I will remove those pics as soon as I get mine posted)

congrats dude!!! looks nice. me likey.
i only saw like 2 as well. they look pretty tight though. :P
but nice choice...
Yes....huge license plates, rear foglights, Angela Merkel....thats pretty cool... :roll:
right, dude....I hate this Land!!!
And 1.30€ for a liter Gasoline!!!!! :twisted: :twisted:
this thing drives like a smaller version of a porsche cayenne..stable at any speed.
(my speedo goes up to 160!)
YES
i will post up new pics when i get my hands on a digital camera.
i have one on my phone, but quality is an issue.
excuse the messy interior..i just took these photos tonight 2/20/07 and started abusing it already..i went to In & Out Burger got a cheeseburger and a drink..i brought the drink with me and started racing the car down a hill and almost cranked this bitch up on the rail.
-i was holding my drink and racing down a twisty hill..and trying to take pictures at the same time.
the engine is pretty torqey for a 2.4..i'm used to V8's so i don't know that much about smaller engines except from my wagon (and the RDX but that one has a turbo so it can keep up with most V8's). i was able to blow away a number of cars on the road including some guy in a 240sx with a coffee can muffler on it that i gave a 1/2 street head start.
Very sick rides there! I like the color choices too. I love the darker silvers that honda offers. The tsx is sick too. Im really starting to like those cars a lot. Keep us posted on mods should you decide to do so.
duckie, you come to California, i'll let you drive them anytime.
thanks.
yes i musta stepped into that same hole..and eventually it's going to get bigger cuz i want to upgrade in a yr or two maybe into a used 360 modena or a 911 gt3..
i drove a gallardo the other week at los gatos ferrari..that thing turns some heads! chicks are all over it..guys are melting on their knees to get a close up with it..yellow with black interior..colorwise, i kinda liked the orange-yellow better.
v10 and f-1 paddle shifters..they call it e-gear and charge an extra $10g's for it. although it's really smooth and extremely quick. i'd feel kinda gipped cuz the doors don't go up like the Murciélago.
i like hondas cuz it's a distraction for me right now..i can come here read some stuff and fix my rides.
i like the carbon grey myself..i think it's probably honda's best color next to black.
you'll let me drive them...but can i take one home?
