Another great car...

by MDX Man from West Chester, PA on Wed Apr 11 2012

This is the 3rd MDX we've owned and the 2012 is, by far, the best yet. The biggest improvement is the 6 speed transmission which was my biggest dislike from our 2009 MDX. While the exterior has only changed slightly, the interior refinements are really nice like the LED interior lighting, hard drive for your personal music and other light things. While the MDX Tech / Entertainment package we have isn't cheap, we know what we're getting. In the 10 years we've owned the MDX's, we've never had a single mechanical or electrical issue. Can't ask for anything more!

Better gas mileage than expected

by Globalnr from Cincinnati Oh on Sat Jul 28 2012

I have had the MDX for a month now, and took mt first road test from Cincinnati to Niagara Falls. Surprise! We got 24 mpg on the hwy, averaging 70 mph. Was not expecting this. I wonder if Acura/Honda tweaked the engine mid year to achieve this? Compared this to the Pilot and was worried about the gas mileage. Price was the same (acura base vs Pilot touring). Handles exceptionally well and can't believe the performance. Tough choice vs the two. Strengths: Performance, handling. comfort. Weakness: Very little room in 3rd seat, but workable.

Love our new MDX

by Happy MDX Owner from Springfeild, MO on Wed Oct 17 2012

We drove the RDL and liked it a lot and considered a purchase and just for kicks we drove the MDX and guess what we drove home in our new MDX the same day. Great vehicle and Great working with the staff at the local ACURA dealership. We are into day our fourth day of ownership and still loving the great ride from the MDX. Thanks!

Best SUV that combines luxury and value

by Acuraowner from on Sat Sep 02 2017

This SUV has the perfect combination of style, luxury and space for those who don't want to break the bank. I've had a pilot, highlander, Tahoe and this SUV surpasses them all.

Good car for the money. balanced package

by Suburban dad from Ridgewood, NJ on Sat Aug 17 2013

Wife and I shopped around a lot of different cars in class including Lexus RX, BMWX5, Infiniti JX. Each had their pros and cons, but looking at all, the Acura had the best balance of attributes. It was sporty enough (though cant compare to the X5's V8), spacious enough having an actually functional third row and the price was right cons include the crazy amount of buttons, the fuel economy and the blind spots.

So far so good

by New Acura MDX Owner from Philadelphia suburbs on Mon Jan 23 2012

We've only owned it for a month, but so far we really like our new MDX. We got the Advance package, which is loaded with all the bells and whistles, and it really is quite a step up from our (beloved but old) 2004 Honda Pilot. We are still learning how to use all the electronic voice command features, etc, but the driving experience is great. More car-like in its handling than most SUVs.

I love love love this car!!

by JP from Gainesville, FL on Sat Mar 16 2013

This is the most stylish, luxurious, high-performance, amazing car I have ever owned. It has exceeded my expectations and I cannot imagine owning any vehicle other than an Acura MDX in the future. It drives like a sports car but rides like a luxury car and has the safety and space of a mid-size SUV. AMAZING!!!!

Just love it!

by koolken from MONTREAL CANADA on Sat Dec 22 2012

Just wish the technology package would include mexico in their teck pack. It s to bad that the dealers in canada are so greedy. I saved 10,000$ by purchasing this car practically brand new in the USA.

Nice SUV

by JFB from MI on Mon May 20 2013

Handling in corners is amazing for a big fwd. Falls short of my BMW 330 sport, but orders of magnitude better than any other SUVs I have driven including our Pilot. Can be pretty heavy footed in the corners and still waiting for the lean that magically never seems to come.
