Does the Red Line option improve the handling enough to justify its cost or
is it a waste of money?

Thank you

It all depends on your driving. The RL suspension is enhanced so as to work
with the 1" lowered chassis to give a more road hugging feel when
accelerating around steep corners. (Try one, youll feel it!). On the other
hand, I have to say that today I had a customer compare both on a long and
winding road and he was impressed by the handling of both and could not tell
the difference.

The RL has a slightly better center of gravity and handles curves a little
smoother, but not by alot IMHO. The 18" alloys and better tires definately
help alot in the handling dept. What you are really paying for on the RL VUE
is the body kit and the kool 18" wheels.
They both have the same interiors and V6 250hp Honda powered engine. You
cannot tow anything with the RL VUE ergo, it is a "for looks " SUV and not
as versatile as the normal V6 VUE.

Drive both and decide for yourself.

As far as not towing, I live here in Palmdale California and there is a shop
that modifies RL Vue so it can tow. They did a cut out of the plastic rear
molding to allow for the towing apparatus.

Yes, I have heard of this being done. Do you know where I can find any pics
of this modification? I wonder if there is anybody in South FL that also
does this mod? I will be happy to refer customers to them.

Thanx,
