add AWD to a FWD RDX?
I came across a screaming deal on a 2019 RDX, but it's FWD. Is it possible to add AWD to a used RDX? I get that it's probably more affordable to just buy one that already has awd, but ignore that for a moment. Is it possible to have the dealer put awd on this car, and what might the cost for that be?

That's probably why it's a "screaming" deal. 2019s go for less. Not only because they are the oldest 3rd gen but also because they were the first model year of the 3rd gen and had the most issues. FWD go for less than AWD models. Does the Carfax show accidents, fleet usage, or a rebranded title? Lot of factors go into how these are priced and it's hard to find a great deal on a perfect car, especially with the pricing tools that dealers have these days.

Yeah, I think it's just high mileage at 81k, and the FWD that's bringing the price down. There's no record of accident or salvage. I figured AWD wasn't an easy change, but one can hope!

If you need / want AWD, you should buy a factory SH-AWD RDX. There is no way it is going to be cost effective to have AWD added to a FWD vehicle. I bet it would be difficult to find a dealer to do it and I wouldn't want to deal with any of the issues afterwards.
