Deciding between the EX FX and RDX you need to determine what you plan on doing with the vehicle. If you want to tow a trailer (boat, car, wave runners etc) pass on the EX, not rated for towing. You can get a hitch as described here on the site, but thats mostly for bike carrier etc. The FX also is larger, heavier and has worse gas milage. RDX feels roomier inside, expecially the back seat; getting 4 adults in the EX can be tight, but is easily possible for short trips, so if you plan on having 4 quite a bit, again maybe the RDX. If you like a cockpit type feel where you slip in and feel like the car "fits" you then the EX is perfect. (30 seconds after my wife sat in one, she said "I want )Regarding the exhaust note, it is muted compared to the FX. The FX has a distinct growl much like my prior G35 coupe; i really miss it with the EX as I traded it in. But the exhaust is not silent, more like that on the G35 sedan.As for insurace cost, that depends on way too many factors like driving record, deductable, zip code, and coverage. I think I pay in the neigborhood of $600 for 6 months with Allstate platinum near max coverage amounts, new vehicle replacement, 500 deducatble and all the trimmings.Hope that helps
