Thanks again for this useful info. This should help others who are in the market in other places as other dealers (hopefully, including our sponsoring dealer) should be receiving them. I know I'm anxiously awaiting an opportunity for a test drive.

No show today...still showing assigned for shipping 7-31 out of West Liberty. Spoke with Columbus and Cincy and they are expecting the same shipment. Our sponsor should have their vehicles a few days after Ohio dealers.

The GB color code is Carbon Grey.

MOD EDIT: Cut the shit.

Rob,

Have they arrived yet? I wonder if they left a few days late. We have three that were suppose to ship on the 31st also and wondering if they also will be delayed.

How many do you have coming in after that?

I've got a few that were suppossed to ship out 7/31 as well. You'll probably get yours before I will since I'm all the way down in Florida. The dates for assn, rcvd, and ship all seem very misleading on my run. Are you guys seeing that as well?

Rdx At West Palm Beach Dealership

Today I was just searching around to find a RDX in SOuth FLorida. I was up in Palm Beach, and called the dealership. I dropped by and the guy told me I was ten minutes late. Acura picked up their only RDX, and it will be back MONDAY OR TUESDAY. I did not get the guy's name, but how could ACURA just pick it up. MAybe just a demo, but the salesman said it was nice, fast, and sleek. I can't wait until the car arrives at my dealership.

It could have been one of the Ride N Drive RDX's?

Arrow RDX's Finally here...

We just had our first three RDXs hit the ground. All three are running through service tonight and will be ready tomorrow for demonstration.

We'll have another 5-6 vehicles arriving by month-end with about have pre-sold. It looks like about the same for September.

Rob, any chance of some pics please!?

Also, I think you missed out the crucial word in your last sentence - "with about ________ have pre-sold" - so what was the number please?

Thanks!

Unhappy 3 In Louisville

We also got our 3 in Louisville. My Red Tech was suppose to be on the first truck but it didn't show.

Sorry to see ELS won't play the 5.1 surround sound on audio/video DVD's.

rdx in cincinnati

I drove one today after waiting a year and a half and was underwhelmed. It drove ok and looked ok, but neither was great. Back seat should recline it doesn't, storage comp. only opens toward driver, pass. cannot get in. I didn't like the wine of the engine, or the lag.I can get by with no self dimming mirror, and I can get by without memory seats or power seat for pass. But I certainly couldn't make a decision on a $40,000 car in the 15 minutes I was allowed to drive it in. I told the salesman I needed more time than that in the vehicle, he said that was impossible because this (rdx) was in such high demand! Could be months he said, ok I said I'll wait three months. Oh, he said it could be much longer than that. Because this car is special, he was surprised they were letting anyone drive it because of its high demand, they just usually sold them (the high demand ones) without a test drive. Really? Sad to say not the first time I heard this nonsense. I said oh well and went
and looked at an infinity fx 35. Well they leased me one for a year for $299 (plus tx $318). So I have a year to look. It does take corners well, it is comfortable and lots of nice toys. Just underwhelming. Like the salesman!
