^^wait for the redesign in 2014. it will most likely have all the bells and whistles of the newer RDX and then some. OR....lease a 2012 for 2-3 yrs, trade it and get the 2014. you're looking at a base model anyway...a lot of the "extra" toys come with the advance and tech pkgs.
what are your deal breakers?

I haven't driven the 2013 Accord, but on paper, that car is very impressive. Accord EX-L has lots of standard features that are optional on luxury SUVs/cars such as the A6, 535, Q5, X3 and MDX.

RDX as a loaner
I had a 2013 RDX as a loaner these past few days while my 2012 TL was being serviced.
My wife has a 2006 MDX and like others on this board, the MPG is a concern.
After driving the RDX, and discovering the amazing mileage, we almost pulled the trigger on a trade in.
HOWEVER, I discovered that most of the navigation systems features on the 2013 RDX become grayed out once the car is moving! The voice controls are supposed to help, but has anyone entered an address verbally one letter at a time?? Plus, you can only scroll up to three screens verbally and then it stops!
I guess I am spoiled with my 2012 TL and being able to use the navigation system while driving.
Just my $.02
