"Used Acura Overview And How To Buy At The Best Price!"
It was back in 1986 when Honda was one of the first to fully appreciate the large market for luxury cars. And they had a built-in advantage over the competition ... they could upscale a product line on their already reliable Honda car platforms.
So, Acura was born ... and the rest is history. They were an immediate success.
And Acura's reputation for high quality and reliability is the backbone of this success. But there's a lot more. They're packed with luxury features and technology and graced with high levels of performance. Independent ratings from the likes of J.D. Power, Edmunds.com and others are excellent, as are consumer surveys for overall quality and satisfaction.
And the kicker is that they can be owned for thousands less than their European counterparts. Resale values are also strong, further reducing the true cost to own.
Here's just some of our favorites you may want to consider:
Acura RSX: This two-door hatchback replaced the Integra from 2002 to 2006 and offers car buyers a sporty coupe design with nimble handling and responsive steering at affordable prices. Other pluses include above average reliability and refinement.
Acura TSX: This is Acura's least expensive sedan and makes an excellent choice due to its high level of standard features, high quality interiors and athletic driving dynamics. Again, the reliability factor is excellent and this four-cylinder sport sedan represents a lot of value for the dollar.
Acura TL: The TL is Acura's midsize entry-level luxury sport sedan and the maker's #1 selling car ... for good reason. This is a well-built, feature-loaded vehicle with excellent handling and performance, powerful engines and an outstanding reputation for dependability.
Acura RL: This is the nameplate's flagship luxury sedan and replaced the Acura Legend. Outfitted with all-wheel-drive, a 290 horsepower V6 engine, gorgeous interiors and high quality materials, it's priced at a distinct advantage over its European competitors.
Acura MDX: With its introduction in 2001, the MDX quickly became a big success among those looking for an upscale, seven-passenger SUV. Given its comfort, handling and performance ability, all-wheel drive technology, number and quality of amenities, and top crash test scores, we can't believe its price relative to the competition.
Acura RDX: New in 2007, the RDX is a small, entry-level luxury SUV designed as a sporty performer. Loaded with premium features and coupled with a turbo charged 2.3 liter 4-cylinder engine, the RDX is sure to please.
All in all, and no surprise here, we think Acuras make excellent choices as used vehicle purchases ... just a lot of vehicle for the dollar.
And we have several suggestions to help you save when buying one.
