2013 RDX Forged Silver On Black W/ Tech Pkg

Hey All,

Here are a few pics I snapped this evening before taking my two Greyhounds for a walk. I detailed both inside and outside yesterday afternoon. It looks awesome for a few days before snow arrives and the roads are salted and sanded.

^^^ Thanks for posting the photos! The more I look at the RDX in that color, the more I like it! I am envious of the fact you don't have any snow on the ground....you should see what we have here *sigh*

Weather, where in Canada are you? I'm envious, I want some snow here in NJ! I'm an avid snowboarder and today's 50 degree day is no fun when all I want to to surf the mountains

PS - OP, LOVE that color. That and Amber Brownstone are my two favorite colors on the RDX.

Impressive, both car and dog. I've always been impressed by greyhounds. Also amazing is how FSW looks different in the two different lighting conditions. I plan to get an RDX FSW next month.

Do you mind me asking why you chose the ebony interior? That's the direction I'm heading, partly due to our dog (gray-haired beardy), but the parchment does look decent, too. Plus, in case my wife thinks parchment is better, I want to have some good arguments to stick with ebony (which is what we have in our '06 TL).

Hey Saxman48,

For me the ebony interior is a must. I like ebony interiors, I think they look the best and as you mentioned, I have two dogs and the parchment is light enough that it would show up dirt I think.

Greyhounds are awesome dogs.

Nice pics. Saw a new RDX in FSM over the weekend. It really looks nice in that color. I like FSM best in bright sun.

Hey Weather,

I was not 100% sure that this was the colour to go with but now I've had it a little while it has grown on me more and more and I'm pleased I got something different from my usual Silver or Grey.

Yes, its been nice not to have to hike over snow and ice when taking the dogs for a walk. Although, we're supposed to get a few inches tonight into tomorrow morning. There goes the clean RDX

Where in Can are you located?

Hey guys...I am located in the province adjacent to Maine...NB. I will trade with either one of you to not have to see snow ever again!

Fleuger....That same system that will affect you guys tonight will track south of NS on Tuesday and give them a few inches of snow....my friend Mikejmack will be experiencing a slow commute to work.

This was a love it or hate it color on the TSX/TL when introduced, and I think it has done very well on the RDX. Not for everyone but looks great on the RDX, and your pictures are proof.

Something unique, too, unlike so many other "meh" colors generally available. Amber Brownstone similarly unique, in a different way.

Great choice!

It by passed us, we only got 1/2 an inch of snow but the last two days its been 4F or -16C. I walked my dogs tonight and forgot to take my gloves. The wind was howling and after 15 mins I had to run home as my finger tips were bright red and burning and didn't want to get frost bite. Winter sucks!!

fleuger...Looks like you guys need better weather forecasters *lol*

Its been brutally cold here with temperatures at night in the -26C to -28c range and wind chills near -40c (which ironically enough is -40F as well)....Brrrr

Luckily for us, we are going to see a gradual warm up through the weekend and early next week and may see liquid precipitation by Wednesday! Bring it on!!
