i bought the RDX for its responsiveness over the MDX. the MDX drove like a boat.

i dun need to extra space anyway.

i got average 13L/100km (MIXED)....not bad for its size IMO.

Thank you for everybody's input.

Would you mind, Ravemother, show me how much for the last three service bill? 等我好同老人家(actually not too old)交代一下,等他們衡量一下。

Hey elan, bcuz the RDX uses a turbo engine, it needs more frequent servicing and the maintenance cost will be higher than car with NA engine. eg, it uses syntactic oil  

i usually pay $139 for each service at richmond acura. (oil change, oil filter change, inspection, tire rotation, free shuttle service and car wash etc)

you might want to know that the RDX has a build-in service monitor to tell you when to service based on the quality level of engine oil (sprint driving style reduces the oil quality faster). therefore, drivers with different style will have different service interval.

i usually need to bring it in every 5 months. note that: i am usually easy on the throttle.

i sort of agree with chobit, the suspension set up of the RDX might be a little bit stiff, but this is the point of getting a RDX for its handling. i like it!
