When it comes to flagship vehicles, the Acura RL offers one of the best balances of luxury, performance and prices. Starting in the mid-$40,000 range, the RL benefits from a powerful V-6 engine mated to the Acura Super Handling All-Wheel Drive™ (SH-AWD), which helps give the car stellar performance and handling capabilities, while continuing to offer luxurious accoutrements expected among its competition. Still in its second generation, the RL received a considerable redesign for the 2009 model year, which eliminates the bland styling previous RL models have endured. The Acura RL comes with a four-year/50,000-mile warranty and gets an estimated 22 mpg on the highway.
