The white exterior with black trims and with the red interior, is just a fire combo!!

Wow, RDX was one of my favorites in 2020, now spicing it up with the 2021 RDX. I love Acura and Honda.

As always fantastic review !! I like RDX A-spec.🤩🤩

I love how the dash is complicated. It's a breath of fresh air from the sleek horizontal flat dash that all the other luxury car makers are going with ( and even some non luxury like Hyundai s)

Nice job on the review.

Both of you guys are awesome 👏 but I really like the one that did the review in this car 🚘 today, I also like the voice 🙌🙌 It is a very detailed review...

I like the Acura RDX a spec it is very high sport suv and I really like it keep up the good work guys.

Driving 2021 black-on-black a-spec package as we speak what a beautiful ride. Love the panoramic sunroof and the whole layout of the car. Also the front end with the headlights are gorgeous. 🙏

Stopped by the dealer on my way to check it out all the colors in A spec trim look amazing I change my mind everyday lol but i think black with the red trim looks so good

Acura needs an A SPEC Advance, I would like Advance features with A Spec styling

Great Review. I’m impressed by the RDX. My choice would be an advanced trim but with the 20 inch wheels/tires from this trim. I agree that the infotainment needs to be touch and the touch pad. Also, Acura should have offered a spare tire.

thanks guys great video thinking about getting an A spec

I love the 2021 Acura RDX A spec it’s very nice!! I love the red Interior!

we got the 2020 advance. it’s such a gorgeous looking car. the only downside is the rims they give with the highest end trim (which we bought). they used to give the diamond cut rims with the highest trim in 2017. now it’s $2500+ option

I just bought an RDX Tech. I am now an empty nester and this car is the perfect size! I love it.

Love the new design Acura style. Hopefully next year I will be able to get my hands on the tlx type S but I do have a family so it might be better for us to get this one here.

Until the type S is available the A spec trim should be optional on the Advanced model. I want the adaptive suspension, tech features and A spec looks.

Thanks for making this video! I'm waiting to see how the TLX Type S is priced then decide between one of these and a TLX. Crossing my fingers for a RDX Type S!

Second!! Keep up the great work!

Got one of the first (and at the time rarest) ‘19 RDX A-Specs in Black with the red interior. Absolutely no regrets Love the 0-100 in 5.5s😂could save so much on gas if I didn’t floor it so often (Being Canada, it apparently has more standard features like power folding mirrors, heated steering wheel, remote start, & SH-AWD) Edit: test drove an X5, GLC, Q5, Evoque, RX450, and F-Pace and found this one to be the best for my needs, one of which was size. It also has the some of the most power in its class. Though the F-Pace, RX, & Q5 were close, the Jag was a lil outdated on the interior, Lexus had no pano sunroof, & the Q5 was lacking on cargo space in comparison. The low maintenance costs (being an Acura) were a bonus

My wife and I just bought this car, black interior though. Traded in a 2018 Ford Escape titanium. I'm pretty damn impressed with this car so far.

You guys know your stuff - thanks for the video. I’ll likely purchase one soon. One question: what’s with the coupons? Is that just to size up storage?

Hi everyone, so ive had a 19 ilx, a 21 tlx, also a 21 rdx and a 21 ilx. All had faint oil smell coming thru vents. And rear main seal leaking oil. Allow a bit more than 2000 km possibly less. Look for small oil residue or leak at fly wheel cover.

I would definitely buy one just wish it had over 300hp

You can get heated steering with Aspec as an option.

My dad has Acura RDX 2019 aspec but in black pick up few weeks ago also

I own 2007 RDX Turbo tech package and i always gets the front row every red lights :D Thing goes 0-60 below 4 second still. Apart from stiff and clunky shift knob and a bit of turbo lag. Fun car to drive.

Advanced package

I have this car. I traded in my absolute lemon of a 2019 base model. After so many nightmares with that one I thought surely! Surely this brand new car will be great! Until tonight when, at 3177 miles, driving her like a baby to save on gas mileage (22.9), the passenger side window will not work. Both buttons, turned on and off, no the lock isn’t on. I have to drive to a different dealership because if they see me again after the 2019 issues, they’re going to think I’m hustling. I’m just a girl, with a brand new Acura, trying to not have a problem. My 2004 Acura TSX had a passenger window problem once. After 5 years the spring broke through the button. But it was 5 years old. Not 2.5 months. Absurd. I’m having an existential crisis.

CHINGON.... COMPA !!!

How many recalls RDX AND MDX ???

Not having a touchscreen is one big leap backwards. A-Spec not having 360 camera is also a minus.

Imagine if they made an advanced package for the A-Spec model. I really hate the wheels in the Advanced package :(

Bought a 2020 Advance version. Loved it until.... I was passing a tractor trailer on small two lane road. Half way pass the engine suddenly gives out and won’t go over 25 mph. Thank God the truck slowed down so I could pull over. There I was, broke down on a country road. The car eventually restarted and made my way to the Dover Del dealer. The code said cylinders 1 and 4 misfired. But they had no idea what caused it or what to fix.......goodbye. So I’m driving a $49 k car that could break down any where any time. Now I’m afraid what could happen on future drives.
