I see rdx a lot specially the newer models. Not much 07. However they are rare in some parts of the city. I remember I was one of the first in my neighbourhood who bought it. A year later and there were 4 rdx in my street. There is a blue one at my work parking lot as well, Only rdx I saw that was not black/silver/white. I should have bought blue but then all of may cars would be blue Oo

^ btw those are 2 rdxs. forgot to mention just in case since pic quality is bad.

I see a lot of RDX around my way but I normally just drive pass them.
They are probably wondering why my CUV is much quicker than theirs.

Not racing anyone - just have a heavy foot to the gas pedal most of the time. =P

Yeah, there was a blue non-tech package and the white tech package when I bought mine. I got the white due to wanting the tech package, kinda wish I would have waited for the blue, its gorgeous..

I usually see the same 1 or 2 "Plain Jane" RDXs a week around town with tint being the only upgrade.

The Acura/Infiniti/Lexus/BMW dealerships are pretty small in ABQ. I think all of them together would equal one Ford Dealership in size. Once you leave the city limits, Ford/GM/Dodge is king in the southwest. The RX350 would be the #1 SUV followed far behind by SUVs by MB/BMW/Audi/Caddy and then Acura. It looks like Ford/GM/Dodge still sell about 30 to 1 compared to Acura/Audi/BMW/MB/Land Rover/Porsche/Infiniti/Lexus/Volvo. We are pretty broke in NM

Southern California here. A lot of time it seems like there are some RDXs around, until I get close and realize it just an MDX. Not many RDXs here, which makes me feel special

I rarely saw RDXs on the road in Vancouver back in 2008 when I bought mine.

Now I see them everyday. Most are grey, silver, white, then black; seldom see the blue, brown or red.

Yea the population of RDXs is very scattered. Popular in some spots, rare in others. The RDX was the 6th best selling lux crossover in Canada for 2010. I'm not sure the newer models will be as popular (2010-on) with the new redesign.

1. lexus rx - 7300
2.acura mdx - 6000
3. benz glk - 5800 <-- holy crap!
4. lincol mkx - 4400<-- rentals
5. bmw x5 - 4000<-- more than x3!
6. Acura RDX - 3100
7. Audi Q5 - 3000

http://www.goodcarbadcar.net/2011/01...cars-2010.html

that's 1/4 the number of US sales. Considering that USA has 10x the population of Canada, it is clear that there are more RDXs sold per capita?. RDX is 9th in sales in USA. There is a huge absent of nissan crossovers in these sales numbers, infinity EX to be specific. In fact in canada there were more Acura CSXs sold in 2010 than infiniti EX, and the number of Lexus IS sales = Acura CSX. There were also more RDXs sold than Acura TL, making RDX number 2 best selling acura in Canada after the MDX.

Good find. Thanks for posting.

I am surprised by the GLK's sales in such a short time since debut. Holy.

I wouldn't say there are a lot, but they're far from rare.
