Replying to: jmpage2 (Jul 19, 2007 1:08 pm) Still no air in the backseat? (Yeah, yeah, I could go look, but you've already been there! )   Visiting Host who may be interested... Replies to this message: jmpage2 (Jul 20, 2007 11:58 am)

Replying to: pat (Jul 19, 2007 3:34 pm) I haven't seen the '08 in person yet, but per the spec changes, no air in the back seat.

I read the info on the rdx 2008 on the Acura website...what does the info they have there about stiff ride and noise mean? Does it hopefully mean the RDX will be quieter and a more comfortable ride? Thanks for your help.

Replying to: frog22 (Jul 21, 2007 9:04 am) What information on the Acura site are you referring to? Provide a link or copy the info here.   The 2007 is stiff and has a lot of highway noise. I seriously doubt that this has changed for 2008 as it has more to do with the level of insulation in the vehicle and the sporty suspension/handling than anything they can "tweak" out of the chassis.

Replying to: jmpage2 (Jul 21, 2007 11:47 am) Thanks for responding! I would send you the link but it is still under www.acura.com. If you go to the acura website, then click on the rdx, then on performance, you will see that there is a heading on the left side titled "noise vibration & harshness control." It seems like they are addressing the issue but I dont understand why- are they saying it has been fixed or are they just acknowledging that is a problem but trying to downplay how big of a problem it is? Thanks! Replies to this message: robertsmx (Jul 27, 2007 12:06 pm)

Saw a 2008 RDX Tech in Ramsey, NJ dealer lot today. There may be more - I was looking at MDXs but happened to notice it in a group of other RDXs.

Replying to: frog22 (Jul 21, 2007 12:05 pm) They may have added some stuff to reduce it.

The seats are very comfortable and I like all of the standard options, including the ipod connectivity and memory seats on the base model. I like the storage compartment between the driver and passenger seats. I do not like how the steering wheel radio controls are laid out and it seems like the shifting paddles get in the way when you are not using them. There is a lot of road noise and I am not used to this. I noticed while sitting idle talking to the salesman in the car for a while, it started shaking and vibrating. I still liked it overall, but then the dealer said "We don't sell at invoice." And he gave me the "This is an Acura" speech "So you have to pay more". This was quite a turnoff. Then he told me "someone" would contact me about the pricing offer the next day, and noone did. He never even gave me his business card. So needless to say my experience with the salesman put a damper on my desire for the vehicle. Now I am going to look at the Mazda CX-7 again, which is so comparable for less $$$ and I had a wonderful salesman. Replies to this message: wwest (Jul 30, 2007 8:55 am)
