Default Miss My RX

Well we have had our new Audi for almost 1 month now. It does ride better then the RX but it is smaller too. The NAV is harder to use but the BluTooth works great.

Going to look at the 2012 RX next week to see if we will get one too. Can never have enough toys.

haha, glad you might come back to the RX. The Audis have been selling like hot cakes too though and they sure look great!

Sorry, but you just can't beat an RX! LOL
Let us know what you think of the 2012.

Quess we have to do some homework on the Audi NAV. Haven't really used it too much, it just seemed harder to use.

Just curiuos though, if Q5 rides better than the RX and on this thread, the Q5 has most of the features as standard than the RX, what made you miss the RX still?

For one, the service garage waiting room is not 1st class like at my Lexus Dealer.. I know its not a big thing but u ask.
Also, as I stated above the NAV will take getting use to. The rear hatch has to be closed from the outside & not from the drivers seat. The radio needs more attention to just change a station, not good while u are driving. No backup camera, ya I know it is coming, but I miss it right now.

Have a road trip coming up & that will tell me more.

I've had my 2012 RX for a week and two days and I'm in love! This is the first time I bought a make and model again, just can't beat perfection. There are a few things I miss from my 2004 RX, but overall the 2012 is a winner!

Understand completely, we had a '04 RX then the '09 RX. Going to check out the '12 next week but we will have the '12 Audi Q 5 for at least a few years. Then will look at the '14 or '15's. Seems so far off but not really.
