#7201 of 7335 Re: ROAD NOISE AND HARSHNESS [strapper] by golfnut5 Nov 15, 2007 (4:41 pm)
Replying to: strapper (Nov 15, 2007 2:52 pm) strapper,   I drive approx. 25,000 per year and as my bones get older am not sure I can take the extra noise and firmer ride. I do like the Acura RL's exterior and interior. I am having a hard time taking a decision. Replies to this message: houdini1 (Nov 16, 2007 6:03 am)

Replying to: strapper (Nov 15, 2007 2:52 pm) how can you compare these two cars; one is a Camry with a marshmellow ride and no road fee - really a 58 Buick Super in disguise; RL is a firm handling AWD road car and feedback from this is good - ask all the happy BMW drivers out there!

Replying to: golfnut5 (Nov 15, 2007 4:41 pm) Since you are checking out a few cars I would suggest that you also drive the Avalon. A friend of mine has one and it is very impressive, especially at the price. It might be a good compromise.

Replying to: strapper (Nov 15, 2007 2:52 pm) Hey Strapper I only paid $39800 for my 06 acura last year my friend got a 07 ES 350 and he paid 42,500 and did you get a good look at the side back windows on the ES!!! Replies to this message: strapper (Nov 27, 2007 4:35 pm)

#7206 of 7335 2005 Acura RL AFS Light Always On by umoms Nov 21, 2007 (5:30 pm)
My 2005 Acura RL AFS light is always on. Delaer replaced the AFS Unit and Steering Wheel Sensor under warranty but it didnt help. They said the next thing they can do is replace the headlamp unit which would cost $1500 and its not covered under warranty because it looks like its been in an accident.   I asked them why did they even replace the AFS unit and steering wheel sensor if it appeared that it was in accident. They replied we didn't realize it until after installing the parts and doing further investigation.   Does this seem legit? If they started it and left the parts in shouldn't they finish the job?   It seems pretty dumb to me that they didn't realize it was in accident until after installing the parts.   Anyone have any other ideas what it could be before replacing the headlamp unit?

Replying to: elibruno (Nov 15, 2007 4:57 pm) Wow i must have hit a nerve here ;re 58 Buick Super -before my time - guess you just dated yourself.As there are a lot more Camrys sold than BMWs and a lot more Lexus Es sold than RLs one can assume that there are a lot more drivers who prefer a quiet car that does not have a harsh ride.

Replying to: eclipse2 (Nov 16, 2007 2:44 pm) If you compare the MSLP of both cars new the Lexus ES lists at about $33000 whereas the RL lists for about $46000.However if you were able to buy your car new for $38500 I am not surprised as the dealers have to seriously discount them as the RL is grossly overpriced which is why you see so few on the road
#7209 of 7335 is 2009 the makeover year? by zoom2xtn Dec 08, 2007 (3:05 am)
If 2009 is when Acura completely redoes the RL I might want to wait but if it is 2011 or so I might want a 2008 with the dealer incentives making it a much better buy than previously. Anyone know their makeover plans?   Lee Replies to this message: dsm05rl (Dec 08, 2007 5:22 am)
#7210 of 7335 Re: is 2009 the makeover year? [zoom2xtn] by dsm05rl Dec 08, 2007 (5:22 am)
Replying to: zoom2xtn (Dec 08, 2007 3:05 am) My dealer confirmed to me that they were definitely doing a make over on the RL for '09. He said it would be slightly larger than the new TL (one of my biggest complaints). He did NOT indicate what the revised engine would be or whether that was changing.
