#7294 of 7335 RL TO GET A V-8 by bartalk3 Oct 23, 2008 (8:09 am)
Looks like the '10 RL will be available with a V-8. Terrible timing. Who needs a V-8 these days with the price of gas. Acura timing has been terrible lately. The redesigned TL has grown 6 inches, and now a V-8. This is part of Acura's attempt to move the brand upmarket into Lexus territory. But I don't think it's going to work.

Replying to: billyperks2 (Oct 24, 2008 7:38 am) ... What's wrong with a RL V8?   It'll probably be FWD!   j/k Actually, I've heard that they might actually be contemplated a real RWD platform. I've got my fingers crossed!
#7298 of 7335 Replacement key fob/transmitter for 05 RL? by galabar Dec 01, 2008 (4:47 pm)
Hi,   What would be a good source for a replacement key fob for an 05 RL? Do I have to do this at the dealer?   Thanks!
#7299 of 7335 I'm thinking about getting the 05 RL by sbaranek Dec 01, 2008 (8:08 pm)
Hi guys. I got tempted by the local non-Acura dealer with their 2005 RL with 34,000 miles on it. I got the price at 21K OTD. It seems to be in a very good condition. What do you guys think? Any comments would be highly appreciated. If I decide to get it, is 100,000-mile/+4year warranty (Acura) worth $1,400? I'm thinking about it, too.

Replying to: sbaranek (Dec 01, 2008 8:08 pm) I think the RL has gotten a bad rap primarily from those that lean toward more "performance". I have owned 2 RLs in the past and I would have to say they were two of the best cars I ever owned. Very reliable and drive and handle in normal driving like a dream.   That sounds like a great deal, and yes, I would spring for the warranty. The way things are in the auto industry today I would try to get them to "throw in" the warranty. Make an offer on that basis and see what happens. Keep us posted.

Replying to: sbaranek (Dec 01, 2008 8:08 pm) I've owned my 05 RL for four years and love it. I would definitely go for the warranty. Even as reliable as my three Acuras have been, there are at least four on-board computers on the 05, and lots of gadgets, all of which will be expensive to repair. For example, on my 99 RL, the auto-dim rearview mirror quit working and the mirror alone, with no labor, was $500. I can't imagine how much one of the computers would cost to repair.

Replying to: houdini1 (Dec 02, 2008 6:53 am) I have a 2000 RL and purchased the Acura extended warranty which carried me thru 75,000 miles / 7 years. Well worth the money. Parts and labor although not as expensive as the German cars, still costly. I have the vehicle with 87,000. Runs great. No market value, but a good winter driving car. Will drive it until the repairs exceed the value..Remember, their cost for the warranty is minimal compared to what you have to pay.
