Where have you been all my life.
I have nothing bad to report. My car is beautiful, great on gas, family friendly and rides like a dream. This is my first Acura and I am definitely a fan. It is pure luxury. I drive it daily and as long as you service it on time, you'll have no problems going anywhere.

This car has a fantastic steering system; it runs very smoothly.
The 2015 Acura rx is a fantastic car for anyone who wants something practical, but with some sports car features. The all wheel drive, Bluetooth features, zone a/c are all fantastic features that I may not have considered when originally going out to look for a car, but I am glad I ended up choosing one with these features. The one thing to remember is this car is very sensitive! For example, if some sort of debris gets swept into the car it will mess with the electrical system, so you have to make sure you drive it consistently. Other than that, I would certainly recommend this car.

The maintenance on it could turn out to be very costly.
The experience that you have with this car is just amazing all around. The car is very spacious and allows space for everyone. Nevertheless, the car is just a luxury itself.

Great car that gets you where you need to be safely and one stylish ride!
My car is excellent had it for over a year now (about 16 months). Bought it used and so far the only thing I had to do was change out the factory battery and get a replacement. Car is super comfortable. Rides smoothly and is stylish. One thing that is a plus is it is really great on gas!

Lower passenger seat, placement of buttons for driver seat warmer.
Love this car. It is luxury at a far less price. Nicest car I have owned. The only tiny drawback is where the seat button warmers are. I am constantly turning them on, the buttons are in the middle by gear shift and I sometimes put my purse there and purse hits the button.. Also, the passenger seat sits lower than driver seat. I also wish hatchback window rolled down.

It looks like a really expensive car, but the price really wasn't bad.
It is so comfortable. I have had it for almost 5 years now, and besides routine maintenance, I have never had to have real work done. It is not too big and not too small. It is very comfortable to drive long distances as well. Lastly, I had a baby last fall, and it really truly is a family car.

My vehicle is family friendly and comfortable for my kids!
I believe this car is great for quick trips, long trips and everything in between! It takes me where I need to be at a reasonable rate and the gas mileage is not bad at all. I enjoy my exterior very much and have had little to no mechanical issues in the five years that I have been driving this vehicle. I highly recommend you buy this car for a first as it was within my price range and has lasted me this long. I know it will last me another few years until I update to the next model!

Looking for a reliable car for new drivers?
It is a nice car for starters, the mileage is great and the interior was a plus for me. Now in aspects of gas it is a bit more but if you think about it the car itself is very reliable and the outside looks sort of luxurious for the price that is overall it is a pretty good car it is interior features is a perk.

It has a lot of problems. I also Is needing to go to the shop for some stupid reason. I really wish I had a different car. Don't buy!!!
It is a terrible car. Whatever you do don't buy it.
accountCircle Kendall L
The car itself is white and the inside is like tan peach color which looks nice.
It is okay I mean it does not look nice but it gets you places safely and that is all that matters. The inside is leather and it is a 5 seater but the inside is also not that great. There were a few problems like the engine not starting but I got it fixed. So it is all good now!

Comfortable ride- battery low.
Runs well but the battery is too weak. Like the seat belt reminders; do not like that it hijacks my phone which prevents me from deciding for myself what I want to do with my phone. The car starts all the systems and then the engine; it should be the other way around to preserve battery life.

My Acura experience is above average, this is by far my favorite car so far.
Great reaction time with good safety features. Sleek exterior and interior is leather in mine. The gas mileage is above average for a car its size, and the passenger seating is roomy. Mine does not have a back up camera which some models do. If you buy from the dealership, they for the most part offer great service in the sales and maintenance departments.

Pros from Owners

likeFilled Nick J.

Speed, endurance, adjustability I enjoy everything about my car. This is the right car for me because of all of the different features that it has. In addition to this the price of the car is affordable for me which is also great.

Cons from Owners

dislikeFilled Nick J.

The cons of me vehicle are that I do not know how long it will last for. I am a bit skeptical about how far my car can go with the current mileage that is on it. In addition to this I would prefer that the car were a different color than what is it right now.
