The RDX, Salads and Triple Sundaes
So I tend to think that people who enjoy performance oriented vehicles typically have active personal lifestyles; they bike, kayak, run, etc. They do this not just for recreation, but also becaue it's smart to maintain a healthy lifestyle.
At our favorite ice cream window in town, I have observed that the trim types with a sorbet or small cone are driving an Acura, Beamer, sport-bike etc, while fatso with the triple sundae waddles back to a non-descript Buick-Toyota-Durango-Equinox thing.......or a Harley.
The only woman I know who runs an S2000 as a daily driver is a hardbody (and she's pushing 50).
Are RDX drivers generally fit?

Mentally or physically? In my case, mentally yes; physically no. I would venture to say most that most Acura owners cover the gamut of physical types; not to mention race, religion, gender, and sexual orientation You offended a lot of ducks with your waddle comment.

My opinion is that RDX owners in general took time and research to make a decision so I think we are probably more fit mentally than physically but it doesn't mean that both are mutually exclusive.
My case I bought it because it reminded me of Mad Max's Car in The Road Warrior.

I'd venture to guess that RDX drivers are generally in good shape, but I think it's because there's probably a large positive correlation between physical health and income, and the average household income of Acura owners is certainly higher than that of Dodge or Saturn owners.
Count me as a counterexample, though, at 5'11" and 230lbs!

Although, the RDX is marketed to an "active" group of people....I don't think that you can tell how healthy someone is based on the car that they are driving...You are looking too much into it and seeing only what you want...I bet that there are plenty of unhealty people and a-holes driving RDXs.

I'm liking the post but have to say that weight/brains is a stretch based on what car you buy. I see a lot of skinny poor people and a lot overweight rich people...and vice versa. I like to think that I'm just "average".

However, I did not initially consider income. I think the correlation is with the choice of a performance biased vehicle and fitness/activity level.
A certain amount of comfort is sacrificed to obtain performance from both cars and people.

Well, the RX 300 is a wallower that serves to bolster my hypothesis.
The "old" 328....I dunno, did he buy it when he was a young go-getter? Sacrifice for performance is a business principle as well.

What lifestyle would an RDX convey? The average "other peple" have no clue what an RDX is or that it is any different than the many small SUVs it resembles.
The RDX styling tends to disguise it's performance -- the characteristic which appeals most to enthusiasts.
The question is simple; do RDX drivers maintain a physically active lifestyle? (Which would seem to compliment their driving style.)
