Default 2005 Acura RL

I just bought a 2005 Acura RL with 110k miles on it it's loaded with the AWD system HFL with voice command. It drives smooth and handles pretty well it will be my DD so I can keep the GS parked and pull out on the weekends.

Thanks! Looking forward to it.

Just an FYI regarding HFL, I own a similar vintage TSX and the HFL has been the only thing go to bad on it. So if one day you hit the bluetooth button and get no response, you'll most likely have to replace the HFL module, which luckily is quite cheap on eBay. Other than that the Acura has been rock solid.
