Looked at 05 RL TOday

I looked over the new RL today for quite a while with a sales man.

C- |Exterior styling, mediocre but I like the shorter length a lot, did not seem too big at all.
B+ |Interior styling, clean, precise, maybe too many buttons!
A |Tech goodies, esp. the Navi interface and computer
A |Audio
A |Fit and finish looked flawless. nice touches all around. Door sounds were tight, even trunk looked very clean with new kind of hinge. All closed very nicely. The black paint looked much better than on other Acuras I've seen, looked very thick, it was with the blue flake.
leather seemed the same as on the CL, no better IMO.

Value - Don't know, but for $50k I want some style. looks more like a puffed up Accord than a distinctive new style. Not sporty at all like the TL. Actually recalls the original CL with the tailights, not a good thing IMO.
Didn't drive it but the best features on the car are the AWD and the paddle shifts.
what do you guys think.
features - electric rear sunshade and headrests, side sunshades, no key- like Lexus, just touch the door handle to unlock car, do not need to insert key to start car, lots of gadgets and gizmos.
