Just bought this baby. It's an amazing vehicle. Interior quality is unsurpassed for this entry level Luxury class. It's not as fun and exciting to drive as a BMW or Audi, but that's not its target market anyway. If you want pure comfort, luxury, reliability (Toyota recalls notwithstanding) and all the latest gadgets, then take a good look at it.
Great review. I have a '99 and 2002 RX 300 - both still going strong...and I live in road-weary, harsh winter New England. This vehicle might be matched but can't be beat.
Excellent for Tahoe. Crusie control and responsiveness to road a huge plue. On the down side...the Nav sucks since you can't do 80% of functions while in motion.
Not many comparisons to the competition besides the nav interface... other than that, pretty in depth! I'm leaning more towards the SRX and Q5, but good knowledge to have thanks!
Im getting this car on friday fully loaded. Trading in the 2008 Rx 350 for a 2010. I could wait and get the 2011, but it's the same car and it'll cost $75 per month more than the 2010. I can't wait to drive it.
It has small clearance... It sucks! I think 90% of buyers out there are not keen on luxury vehicles... It has to be more practical, like Toyota Land Cruiser...
Lmao, the Acura ZDX was built through the inspiration of the Infiniti FX35/50 and so was the BMW X6. When do you ever here Acura being compared to other luxury models in a commercial review or anything of that fact. Acura isnt even named amongst top dog competitors in this luxury auto market consisiting of Lexus, Infiniti, Audi, BMW and Mercedes Benz. They dont even have a coupe or a convertible, what type of luxury manufacture is that exactly. The ZDX is trash. Acura is a substitute to luxury.
I love this car!!!! it is a dream to drive and the smart access/ navigation software is amazing.
How is it holding up so far

I start in the quality control dept at the assembly plant for the rx next week

My wife has a 01 RX 300, its great. I just drove the 2010 RX 350 and its a superior ride and the interior like Ron says is great.
Exactly. Ron is a big guy and look at 0:30 ... RX is a massive car. Well designed.. so it doesnt evoke "too big" impression like Q7...
lexus needs a F version of this to compete with ML amg, X5M, Q7 tdi

lol I think its funny when he said "Make sure you use the mouse when youre moving"
Very informative review! Thank you.
really awesome car, if someone can answer, is this a good car when it comes to mountainous roads, like Yosemite or Lake Tahoe?
@Johncarson9113 Acura has their own approach, you can't step into a MDX, RL or TL saying that it isn't of high quality and luxurious.
Very good luck
i think this competes with Q5 not Q7, GLK rather than ML,
If it is bigger that you want, then they make the LX 570 8 passenger.
The hybrid has the EPA estimated of 28MPG for both city and hwy. Why does he say it's 25?
@jeffmaggie What if you're new to driving? I heard it doesn't have good traction
@BoscoW0ng No, not even a chance!
My dad has a 2011 Lexus rx 350 and recently the right latch for the folding seats is not really working as smoothly any suggestions
this is gonna be my first car =|
I tested out the rx450h yesterday I like the car but the nav makes me so mad it's useless when your driving
What are people getting for MPG city and Highway and combined ?
Is it possible to add extra seats at the back?
It has small clearance... It sucks! I think 90% of buyers out there are not keen on luxury vehicles... It has to be more practical, like Toyota Land Cruiser...
this competes with the q5 not the q7
well i wanted a nissan 370z nismo but my dad wants to get me the lexus.
This is a Toyota Venza
so for most of the time its a front wheel drive, fuck that i aint wastig 50 thousand for a FWD
