If you’re a technology junkie, the 2008 Acura RL showcases the latest automotive high-tech gadgetry in an attractive package that is both user-friendly and semi-intuitive. Drivers who prefer razor-sharp handling to straight-line performance will love the RL’s Super Handling All-Wheel Drive (SH-AWD).
If you’re expecting neck-snapping starts from a standstill, the 2008 Acura RL’s 256 pound-feet of torque will not impress. And for those with a full-on performance bent, the RL does not offer a manual transmission.
