Hello Acurazine! I'm Russ,

I just started working as a Product Specialist at Speedcraft Acura in West Warwick, Rhode Island. I have been passionate about the Honda-Acura brands since 2010 when I was gifted an 03 Acura 3.2 TL! Now I have the pleasure of selling them.

Welcome. How's that transmission holding up on your '03?

Unfortunately I do not have the car anymore. And the only reason for that was I beat on it and the body just couldn't take the abuse anymore. It had around 176k when I had to part ways with it. But overall the car was great to me. I did transmission work at maybe 125k? It needed the tranny fluid flushed and it was grinding. But after that I had no issues.

Hmmm, that's good. They improved them somewhere around 2001 or so. Are you guys selling a lot of new RDX's?

We started with about 15 on the lot. We are down to 2 A-Specs and a few TECHS. Many of the customers are willing to wait for color and trim options and due to that, many cars we have incoming are already spoken for. I even sold our demo car to a couple who was looking to Lease, but financed because they wanted it. All I can say is, if I did not buy an SUV before I started working here, it would have been my next vehicle. Finally got a red on black yesterday that is going through TDI. The red is gorgeous.
