A Fitting Comparison

I hadn't seen this article on the forums, and although it's dated, I think it's pretty good. It summarizes what I think of the car. Never heard of it's SH-AWD being compared to a Bentley before!

Even last night while driving my RL around DC, I commented to my wife that it's hands down the smoothest/best handling car I've ever driven. And I've driven a lot!

Great to hear it held its own on the track against BMW, Audi, and Mercedes. I love how they said that that driver sold him when he pushed the RL to its limits and he wasn't even in the car. Awesome.

It's in the 05 RL Media Archives/Reviews thread.

It's too bad the public didn't love it as much as the automotive press did when it was released.

Not really. I f the public had like it, we would have paid 9k or more for the RL. I love it when the public hates.

I wish the public had of hated my Miata too!

Good point. Many of us DID virtually steal this car.
