I ordered a 2019 RDX Elite here in Canada. Elite is missing LED fog light and adaptive dampers that really annoys me, got a good deal though. Base, A-Spec and Platinum Elite trims make sense but not the Elite trim I am getting lol imo.

Thanks for talking about the audio system. NOBODY else ever gives you more than a sentence about this and it's a huge part of the driving experience for a lot of people.

Can't agree more. When you buy a luxury vehicle you expect a great sound system, but the mid level in Mercedes, BMW, Land Rover are just tweeters and muddy bass. You'll have to go many thousands more to get something comparable to the Acura ELS, and audiophiles put it right there amongst the best, next to systems in $100k+ cars. Nothing exudes luxury more than a great sound system, and the RDX already has a great ride, silent cabin and great style

Finally someone understands how good the RDX is. The second gen was a lazy departure from the core of what it was and what it has become. I have a first gen, which I encourage people to drive. It had a SH-AWD system with lateral torque vectoring back in 2007. Obviously its more advanced now and turbo lag was real, but its a sleeper of a fun car to drive and a Subaru WRX killer.

@@chaseteterAcura and Subaru model generations were staggered differently but I have driven friends 07, 08, 13 WRX and my RDX. For 2007 RDX vs 2007 WRX: 100%. The RDX, aside from having a superior AWD in 07, the 2.3 has more HP and torque as well. For 08-13 WRX they upped the power so the edge is to the suby. Acura lost their way with the 2nd gen RDX. What I will say is if you want a Japanese turbo hatchback with torque vectoring AWD and leather with an auto; the RDX is it. And they're pretty cheap now.

I usually never leave comments especially long winded ones but this is a pretty neat story some will appreciate & since Mr. Geese dedicated sometime to it in the review: When I was about 10 years old when the RDX came out they had an exhibit outside a museum near my house. I got to sit in the car and listen to the new sound system. A gentleman explained all of the features and benefits. It was the first time music blew me away. I think we listened to an assortment of Eric Clapton. Fast forward 10 years later I went to a minor league baseball game to watch a new friend pitch. I never met this kids father and sat next to him. After talking for a bit I said, “I know this is a long shot but you didn’t happen to have been at a museum near town about 10 years ago talking about a sound system in an RDX?” Turns out he’s Elliot Scheiner and remembered meeting each other way back then. Super nice and humble guy. You wouldn’t know it for a second he’s this big time music producer. And yes he gets new Acura’s every couple years.

Just picked up my 2021 Advance yesterday. Dealer never showed me the sliding console. I don’t think he knew. Now I do thanks to you. Touchpad.....easy peasy. Took me about thirty minutes overall. Took your advice and eliminated a lot of never use icons and now have four. Upper right and left. Lower right and left. Keep eyes on the road, slide finger to what corner of pad I want and push. That’s it. Two model years later, I think they’ve improved the paddle downshifting. It uses a lot of quick torque to get you lower fast. Doesn’t seem clunky to me. Wish you drove it in the snow a little bit to show what SHAWD can really do. Great review. Very impressed.

Hands down this is the best review video on Acura RDX I have watched to date. No other reviewer, even the highly rated ones didn’t bother to gather so much details about this car.I already own this vehicle and quite interested in listening a lot of new stuff that I had missed from other review videos. A great deal of thanks to the maker and I have already started watching all other videos from this channel. I was literally blown away when I heard about the comparison between Korean car makers. I think KZread should mark this video as the ultimatum for an Acura RDX review.

I’VE WAITED SO LONG FOR THIS!!! Acura driver who owned 2003 (the end of the good years) and 2009 sedans. Looking at the RDX for the missus.

OK Goose... You got me... I was waiting for the shoe to drop the whole time... NOT until the end did I come to the realization that you were being completely serious about everything. I guess I am so use to your more funny satire... As always amazing production quality, and excellent information. I would have never considered the RDX as a contender in future purchases, if it was not for your content. It's funny, I have come to rely on your input and detailed presentation of vehicles... Thanks as always for what you do!

I always try to leave a comment on this channel because I think this is the premier place to get a car review. Mark is alot more detailed on the technical details and gives so much more useful information then the typical KZread reviewer. He truly is top of class and deserves more subscriptions. Thanks Savage for another awesome video.

This was the best car intro I ever saw on KZread. The music at the right times, effects, everything.

I have to compliment you on your RDX review. I have owned Acura’s since the mid 80s, starting with two Legends and switching over to MDXs for the next 3 vehicles, with a BMW 330 cig in between. I’ve been watching the RDX for the last two MDXs , but they couldn’t compare with the MDX. Two months ago I bought the new 2019 RDX and have been enjoying it ever since. Your descriptions are spot on, but your technique in delivering the information make it all believable. I’ve probably watched every RDX review that YT has to offer and without a doubt yours is the most accurate and entertaining. Keep up the good work!

Man!!! This review has more detail inside than an..X-ray and a CT combined with an MT together!!! No other RDX has been examined so good in the entire youtube and motor world worldwide. Now i must say this Marc! Have you really counted how much time you re spending examining and explaining the electronics in this car? I think that is about more than 30% of the duration which you re talking about the infotainment and the other electronics. Why do i write about that! The electronics have made us to talk about things which you and i and the most of the ppl consider not to be the essential in the drivers world but anyway i would buy this thing blind because beside its ancient and un funktional infotainment system i m impressed by its great engine, great suspension and great 4 wheel drive system and in generally active driving. Great car and i m a Lexus fanboy but most i m impressed once again from this excellent work you have delivered. By the way i want to say something about the trans. Every 10 speed where ever is implemented shows the same characteristics i really have to say the same things about them. Sometime i do wonder why they don t use CVT s in their products would be somehow more efficient and realistic.

@Jenna_

5 жыл бұрын

CVT's are much less reliable than a traditional torque converter automatic (typically) and disliked by the vast majority of people and well-informed consumers/enthusiasts. Lexus makes their own 10-Speed Automatic, it's used in the LC500 and the new LS500. The infotainment I can say is clunky, but, so is Lexus' approach to car infotainment. Audi's MMI and BMW's i-Drive are some of the best in the business. The RDX is a great buy for the segment and undercuts the competition in price and uppercuts them in driving dynamics.

6:15 Look at these immense storage spaces in the trunk, they can fit a cellphone! Super detailed review. The intro was epic!

I've got some awesome headphones, and I must say that that intro was simply divine! Now let me go find some paper towels.

The RDX has the same problem Acura has had since at least 2014: You can't get the Sport appearance with all the Options. When I was at the dealer looking for a TLX he asked me if I want the A-Spec or Advance and I said 'uh both?' He then showed be 2 cars and it still hadn't dawned on me that you can't get an A-Spec with Advance. Went home, hit up the 'Build my TLX' page and "choosing advance will remove A-Spec". Wait, what? But I want the 15 features that are in the Advance but not the A-Spec. You don't get the remote start, heated steering wheel, wireless charger or a myriad of other options. If I'm buying a luxury car I want both. Fast forward 5 years and I'm looking to replace the car I bought in 2014. Oh the RDX looks nice. Same problem. Maybe it's just me but the Advance model looks extremely like an old-person car. All that chrome looks like a car from the 50's. I'm surprised it doesn't have fins. It's funny that they don't ever sample the cars to journalists without including the $2000 black wheels. Surely they've figured out that some people want any of the following features but to not look like a grandpa: Rain-Sensing Windshield Wipers Remote-Linked Power-Operated Tailgate with Hands-Free Access Acoustic Front Side Glass Rear Camera Washer 10.5-Inch Head-Up Display (HUD) Head-Up Warning Surround-View Camera System Nope, they still haven't. Oh well, time to look at (literally every other 'premium' manufacturer) that gives me the option of sport and options.

same with some Korean manufacturers in the UK. You can get 'sport' or technology, not both at the same time

The best you can do is get the Advance but with the black wheels option. Which is what I would do actually because Id want the wood instead of the carbon fiber and Id want the brown leather seats over red or black. But I hate the normal rims on the Advance I’d only do it if I could option the black rims.

@@AFCompany They have 20 inch optional wheels for the Advance but they are an extra $3200. The original wheels look like shit and ruin the vehicle. I also want the A Spec with the Tech and Advance package but Acura doesn't offer it

Hamer Player ya unfortunately A-spec is like Fsport. Just an appearance package. I find it so weird though that if you want an Advance model it can’t be with A-spec appearance. However they are releasing some Type-S models this year and you can get Type-S and Advance in the same package. But they are gonna be really expensive.

If it's such a big deal, put A-spec trim and wheels on it.

This is the BEST review I've seen for any vehicle. Pros/Cons & straight talk. Gave me a lot to think about as I shop around for my next vehicle. Some of it (the mechanical) was a bit over my head (I'm not a "car" person) but it was understandable and the points you made wrt how this affects the performance of the vehicle was a welcome addition and one I haven't seen in any of the tens of review videos that I have viewed in order to make a good car buying decision. Nothing cutesy or gimmicky about this review. Thank you.

I stumbled upon a video of yours and I want to say you are so thorough with the reviews.. I feel so informed. Subscribed!

I think they went with Android 5.0 because it’s old so it has most of its kinks worked out. It’s a car infotainment system, it doesn’t need to fun Facebook and Twitter haha.

Can’t wait for the Type S model 377hp twin turbo V6

I really liked the music in the intro. Great work!

The. Music. Though. I can’t believe you do all this by yourself! Amazing

that kid on the laptop must be angry guy in the outro's son.

With your tactical mask on, I thought you were going to pull out some ARs and 9mms to store in the trunk area. JK. Great video, BTW, keep it up.

Didn't realize I have been watching your videos without subscribing for almost a year now. Subscribed! Keep up the good work. You have one of the best quality videos and content.

Man! You are really putting out high quality well edited highly visual product,and you keep getting better!

ooooh not so fast first gen TSX 😈but this is the best coming from Acura in recent years. Congrats on getting a Honda product after all this time, I can see you had some fun making this.

Had a ‘05 TSX and it was the slowest 4cyl Honda I’d driven; certainly nowhere near the advertised 200+hp :(

I'd love to see a direct comparison between the RDX and CX5 Turbo... Since you reviewed both within a month of each other, which one is more satisfying to drive?

The quality of the video, the amount of info and the unbiased reviews make his Chanel the best on KZread, hands down. I bought a G80 sport based on his reviews, after the test drive I just couldn't agree more with him about the car. I'm a subscriber for life

You could be the last one who get the car, but you made the best review. This review will be future documentary. Your work is AMAZING.
