Just bought a 2004 RL in carbon Pearl gray🔥 love it. Great value , super smooth ride, pulls whenever i need to step on it.. loaded with features . Classic vip look that won’t go out of style. It’s like the baby brother to the Lexus LS430
The 2004 Acura Rl was a big bodied VIP cruiser. I remember test driving them as a lot potter for an Acura dealer in 2005. Then the 2005 RL came out. Completely different beast. It was a 300 hp AWD beast. You could push it hard and the computers would do all the work for you, within reason.
I had a 1997 RL premium with only 166000 kms (I'm in Canada) a few years ago and it was one of the most comfortable cars I've owned over the years, even compared to my Lexus LS 400.
I own a 99 RL I love the thing. the one thing no one wants to talk about tho is half the parts are discontinued by acura and there were not enough of these for there to be much for even aftermarket vendors to make parts for them. its is a total pain in the A$$ to find some basic parts like ball joints or engine air filter. some parts can be found easily but 75% of the car good luck. i have 2 major cities north and south of me and it took 3 years to find a hood fender and front bumper. not only that but in the 5 years ive owned it only 3 have popped up in junkyards within a 300 mile radius. if you can pick up a cheap good running one around 1500 i say go for it. be aware tho parts are brutal.
I wasn't gonna watch at first until I saw it was you. Funny I just seen Japan car show over weekend and they still rocking these hard core. I got too many cars but this would be nice. Never knew so many options and first time options. Once again the haters won't give credit to Acura/Honda. I don't care because we know they hot
I appreciate it as always bro, these first gen RLs were really innovative and also the last of their kind you could say. Glad to hear people be rocking em still!
back in the days 1997 to 2006 i was luck to own Legends from 93 6pd coupe to 94 GS 95 LS Legend, Seems the KA7 rides feels like a BMW the Handling and Balance made car feel alot smaller when it is, owned 2001 RL Feel like a Mercedes Benz W124 just more refined solid only thing lacking is power head rest
I had 2 Hondas cause everyone claimed they are reliable but they stayed getting fixed more than driven I couldn’t wait to pay them pos cars off second the title came in they was up for sale

Facts bro I have a 04 too,and alot of people thought it was a Lexus,also my has 195k on the dash and runs great.
Had 3 of them over the. years, love the KA9!!
3 of em! Damn!
those years were a joy to work on,
KA9 = One of the best looking Hondas from the end of the 90s.
I agree

Different cars hey? But both are super good in their own regards.
I own a 2004 RL bought it with 171,000 miles and currently at 187,800

These cars are rare in Australia. It's hard to get your hands in one. It took me 8 years searching to get one. Beautiful tanks..last forever
Just bought one in Australia myself
I want one of these in black vip build so bad
They really are so sweet looking slammed with some chrome rims.
Friggin' love the first-gen RL/Legend. 🍷🗿
My favorite of all.
Making this video made me hop right online to see what's available
@@SteffanJohal Word, m8. They're still very underrated IMO.

would it be worth getting one of these, its driven 336k in kms. meaning around 208k miles. its tempting hard
@@tbg4ming126 from what I know if the price is right, they are great
My question is hpw do you change the radio lol
Always had a soft spot for these, how's the transmission?
To my knowledge these are unlike the 2g cl and 2g tl transmission wise
I had 2 Hondas cause everyone claimed they are reliable but they stayed getting fixed more than driven I couldn’t wait to pay them pos cars off second the title came in they was up for sale
First one to see this it said no views I'm the first bitch😂😂😂😂❤ acura
It's true lol
It’s a V6 not Inline 6
This is my favorite RL. The 99-01? As much as I love them, I'd still take the Infiniti M45 over it. Both are awesome cars.
Slap two haridryers on it and tune it to 400hp u dont need more
