vp911;
I live about 100 miles north of you and am in the market for an RL. If you purchased locally (in Michigan) would you be willing to tell me which dealer you purchased from and if you have been satisfied with their service?
I appreciate anything you may be able to share with me about this.
Thanks!

Welcome to the forums!

Yeah, I bought from Suburban Acura in Farmington - DO NOT buy from there. They are pure assholes. Go to Acura of Troy they were at least respectful. There is a thread somewhere here about my experience, when I find it, I will PM you.

-Great car and impressive technology package too.
-PAX run-flats seem to be quieter on highway than the tires used on non-Tech Package vehicles. (I test drove both RL vehicle types before choosing.)
-Adaptive Cruise Control is great; being used regularly.
-Collision Mitigation Braking System is great; it's been activated several times already.
-This car has just the right amount of "feedback" provided to the driver from the road through the steering wheel, suspension and tires - you can "feel" how the car is performing/handling/gripping. (I do not like the "boat-like" ride of other luxury-type vehicles that provide too much (audible and physical) "isolation" between the driver, the car, and the road.)

I know 44,500 seems high compared to others, but they gave me $3000 more for my trade than KBB listed it worth in excellent condition.... PLUS my trade had a dent and hole in the bumper and huge scratch in the side... I figured they were getting their money back for that in the dealer rebate....
