DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMN. I wish that'd been available at that price when I was looking a few weeks ago. Someone indeed needs to jump on that. No beta test needed.

Certified Pre-Owned 2014 Acura RLX Sport Hybrid SH-AWD with Advance Package SH-AWD Sport Hybrid 4dr Sedan w/Advance in Bridgewater #P12120 | Bill Vince?s Bridgewater Acura

Your car is for sale at the same dealer where I bought my RL for $36k, Legend badge and all.

Is there anything one can do during a test drive to see if they mitigated or resolved the acceleration issue you were having?

You don't like the thrill of losing power to all controls/steering wheel mid turn?

They did not duplicate the problem, therefore not solved. Test at your own risk.
