The RL is a lovely automobile. Actually, it is gorgeous. Sitting on its own while being photographed, the RL is sleek, racy and flows beautifully. Problem is that when you leave it in a parking lot, is simply disappears into the mass of cars. I blame this mostly on the absence of chrome and more particularly, 18" or even 19" wheels. The potential exists to make the RL hot; the car, like I said, is gorgeous! An RL Type-S (or something like it) must become available and must include chrome trim, 19" wheels and an extra 15 to 25 hp.

Few deserving cars in the industry have ever flown so far below the radar as the Acura RL has. The Legend, the predecessor to the RL, had a fairly good run between 1986 and 1995. Throughout its career, the RL has stood alone in the shadow since 1996 when it first appeared on the scene. In substance, the 3.5RL had all the necessary goodies: a 210 hp V6, opulence, luxury and a comfortable ride. By 1999, the RL received many physical enhancements in the form of new bumpers, headlights and trim. The revised car enjoyed some success thanks to its more self-assured look. Up until 2004, numerous other improvements were introduced but nothing could slow decreasing sale figures.In 2005, a sleek new RL surfaced with some much needed styling. A new 3.5L V6 promised more performance and spirited driving; all of which were directly related to Honda's SH-AWD system. Even though the RL garnered a number of accolades, it still has failed to rival counterparts Infiniti, Lexus and the Germans.
