  Perfect for my wife - 2002 Acura MDX
  By pattynjeff - January 29 - 10:00 am

  We bought this vehicle for my wife and are very happy. This is a very nice daily driver. Plenty of power, roomy, smooth ride, and handles well. An exceptional value, the MDX was less expensive than the X5, RX300, and ML320.

  Very pleased - 2002 Acura MDX
  By MDX Rocks - January 22 - 2:00 am

  Just had our 7,500 mile service, and I cant praise this vehicle enough. Great power, looks, comfort, reliability. Having driven 330 miles through a serious snow storm on Christmas Eve, I feel qualified to say that the 4WD works extremely well. You can buy an X5 with options to match the MDX for thousands more, and you still wont be able to do anything about the space deficit. The extra seats and cargo space are VERY nice to have. If you want to be able to say "I drive a BMW", thats understandable - my wife and I just bought a 530i. But if you want value, the MDX is the clear choice.

  MDX rules over any other SUV. - 2002 Acura MDX
  By tedpacificNW - December 30 - 2:00 am

  After owning a 99 Ch-eep Grand J-erokee for 3+ years and spending WAY TOO MUCH MONEY on minor and MAJOR repairs (after the warranty expired, of course), I purchased the 2002 MDX. Although the price on the MDX is much more than the Jeep, Ill most likely be saving money over time. The quality and craftsmanship of the MDX is by far superior than the JGC and I believe 90+ percent of all suvs on the market. This is the best SUV for golfers, because golf clubs fit like a glove in this SUV. If youre looking for a smooth, comfortable, no-rattle, luxury ride, this is the SUV to buy.

  No complaints at all - 2002 Acura MDX
  By JohnT - December 5 - 2:00 am

  After two years with my MDX Im pleased to say that I have not had a single problem with this vehicle. Its fun to drive and has a lot of space. I put two child car seats in the back and still easily fit an adult in that row. Downside: Its not truck-like enough to be "cool" and its not mini-van-like enough to be superbly useful. I was looking for a hybrid of these two things and while this is the best compromise there is, the MDX is not quite the best of both worlds. More luxurious than an Explorer, more spacious than an RX300, less expensive than a BMW, cooler (somewhat) than a minivan.

  2002 MDX Touring Nav - 2002 Acura MDX
  By valandshark - November 25 - 2:00 am

  Its been a wonderful SUV. Good acceleration and car-like handling. Lots of versitility with the third row seating. The only suggestion Id give Acura would be to have a bit more storage space behind the third seats (almost none when the seats are in use). I test drove all of the competition and it blew them all away, and has lived up to my expectations.

  MDXcellent - 2002 Acura MDX
  By 2002 Black MDX - November 22 - 2:00 am

  Were very pleased with the MDX, it it spacious, well designed and extremely comfortable to drive. The 240 hp engine provides excellent fuel economy and enough power to handle any driving conditions. Cant wait to try it in the mountains this coming winter.

  Great SUV - 2002 Acura MDX
  By MRH - November 14 - 2:00 am

  I have used this vehicle to haul large items long distances on the roof to carry home improvement items and landscaping materials and to carry the family 5000 miles on vacation. There isnt a better, more reliable vehicle on the market.

  mdx to others - 2002 Acura MDX
  By rawman - November 4 - 10:00 am

  When I purchased my MDX, I tried all the other competitors cars before making my final decision. The RX300, though quiet, was too soft and felt very small inside, even though outside it was very little different from the MDX. The BMW was quick, but again, very small inside and very stiff in normal driving. The Mercedes was a joke. We bought it at Hopkins Acura in Redwood City. They were great. No markup and no pre-accessorizing. I only had to wait 4 months to get my car. Cant recommend them highly enough.
