Buying help

I have a choice between two rdx's
2013 155k miles 1 owner
2007 89k miles 2 owners

both are at the same price, the 2013 is maintained regularly at a Honda dealer and the 2007 only oil changes from time to time.
which one should I buy? any tips.

Thanks!

That is a lot of mileage on the 2013 but I think the more important thing is whether those are highway or city miles. Also, regular maintenance is more important and see that the 2007 is reaching ten years old, it is probably around the time when it might require a few more parts changed than just the oil. Also the 2007 model still uses the Turbo 4 vs the NA V6 on the 2013 model ( I believe fuel economy is slightly better on the V6). Steering feel will also be lighter on the 2013 RDX and there is a bit more interior space. Are they listing at similar prices? Ultimately, you might want to test drive both and have an independent mechanic look at both. The results of the inspection might sway your decision one way or another.
