One thing Acura will have going for it over most of its rivals is better than average build quality and reliability, superb sales and service, and high expected resale values. Not a bad company to buy into, no matter what you think of the vehicle's styling. Hey, just be glad that it doesn't look as hideous as the previous SUV concept that bore the RD-X nameplate back in 2002. Next to that, the new RD-X is a beauty queen.
