    This is a great SUV for the money. It provides a comfortable ride and is a very high quality product. I would clearly recommend this to anyone in the market for a luxury SUV.

    The MDX is a phenomenal car. If you compare the MDX versus the X5, which I was doing, there is NO comparison. It gives you comfort, power and the all the gadgets guys love. I got my MDX, basically fully loaded, for $42K, that is pretty good for the class that this vehicle is in.

  • Our top choice Luxury SUV - 2005 Acura MDX
    By -

    After owning 2 Nissan Pathfinders, a Ford Explorer, and a Mitsubishi Montero, it was time to step up to a Luxury SUV. I had never considered the Acura a serious contender, leaning more towards the Volvo or Lexus... but after driving them all, theres no doubt that this is the best choice for the money. Hands down more bang for your buck than the Lexus (although it was a strong contender) and certainly capable of keeping us as happy as the Volvo while saving $7500 comparably equipped... this is a great vehicle. I agree with the editors review, a little "bland", but when you want a luxury SUX and youre in the $40k budget - Id highly recommend the MDX! What a dream to drive!

    05 MDX replaced my 92 4Runner, I get perfect parking 100% of the time, using the rear camera, excellent design and integration of front stereo with rear entertainment system. Very comfortable, kids love it to. Im waiting for the hybride version of this car, it gobles gas alot, but it worth the comfort.

  • Wonderful car... but not perfect - 2005 Acura MDX
    By -

    I have only had this car for a couple weeks now, but I absolutely love it. It definitely has its shortcomings, but the car as a whole makes up for it. Drove it from Phoenix to LA and back and I was never more comfortable. Great blend of utility and luxury. I would definitely get the Touring package because the little luxuries are great.

    This is a great SUV for the money. It handles well and its comfortable. With the spoiler on the rear door and some side steps, it also looks sportier than other SUVs. I was looking for a larger car, but found that the MDX is more comfortable than many expensive sedans, handles well and the electronics are great.

  • Great SUV - Excellent value - 2005 Acura MDX
    By -

    After 18 months, I cant find anything not to like about my MDX. This is my first Acura and second SUV. I am a finicky consumer and researched all luxury models prior to buying - it paid off! For the money, this is by far the best SUV in its class. Gas mileage was better than anticipated. And, it has the highest safety/crash test ratings. Quality, comfort, and value...I love it!

  • I Love It!! - 2005 Acura MDX
    By -

    I love my MDX as much today as the day I bought it. It drives like a dream and is very roomy. Just last weekend we took 6 adults over 3 hours drive away with luggage and everyone had plenty of room. Now if only they would come out with a hybrid with the new models...

  • Power and comfort - 2005 Acura MDX

    Best vehicle I have ever owned. Would definately get another in the future.

    This is a great every day car, high, responsive and safe. 3rd seat is great if you need it, but you are taking away confort in the 2nd seats. Navigation system is awesome, worth the extra money and so is the quality of sound.
