I’ve searched for NSX’s before, but never the RLX Hybrid. I didn't even know Acura made a car called the RLX.

this just proves that people don’t buy the RLX...which means it’ll depreciate like it’s predecessor, the RL.

Its targeted advertising based off of machine learning. If you’ve viewed other vehicles, sedans (I would assume big body) and the NSX its an opportunity for Acura to show you its other product. It appears that it worked because you now know that Acura has an RLX sedan. Also the RLX is the new RL - the RL nameplate when away a couple years ago and was replaced by the RLX.

My parents have an RL. Nice Honda.

I haven’t searched for sedans at all since early last year, and that was only for the new WRX. All my recent searches have been C6's, Cayman’s, S2000's, Mustangs, and the NSX.

Although I did just notice the RLX’s price is roughly the same as a used NSX, so the algorithms have that going for them.

Very well could be price related. Our software cookies the users machine and will track the user to gather as much data to show the most relivent advertisment at the right time. Our system also learns which ads are getting the most click traffic and which ones are not and will reduce the amount of times the lesser one is shown. Basically, digital adveritising is a creepy, big brother, scary thing.

Worst offender of all is Google - they track everything and actually build a profile of who you are, check out
