I recently had a 08 rdx loaner and was very impressed with the suspension tuning.This was a standard model.The turbo was not seamless ,there was some lag and the boost was noticable on throttle tip in but I was impressed overall.I'm sure the sport model would be even more fun and possibly track worthy.
 
I've heard that from several people, including sports car enthusiasts. A friend of mine that always has a couple bimmers actually told me the RDX w/ sport package [apparently there is no sport package] handles better than any BMW he's owned besides his E46 M3. It's important to note that is the newest he has owned, it's an 04, the new ones may be/probably are better.

Sports model? There is only Tech and base model. They both have the same engine, suspension, etc... there only difference is nav, back up camera, better stereo (my favorite stock Acura stereo :wink: ) and a few other things. I wish they made a sport or Type S model. :smile:

I still would have leased one instead of my TSX when they had the Tech lease the same as a base lease last month. I would have sent my ECU to Hondata the very first day. tinted the windows and changed the wheels.
 
I can't wait till people take these motors put them in Civics and mod the crap out of them.

Should be a lot of fun.

They've been trying since the RDX came out. The only real problem is getting around the SH-AWD issues.
