  • Best SUV Deal - 2005 Acura MDX
    By -

    I went from an Accord to the MDX wanting a vehicle for 4 wheel reliability & being quite pleased with Hondas workmanship. I also wanted a good deal which after studying all the other SUVs in the MDX price range, I feel I got it. It is a good looking vehicle, with good solid engine performance I am real pleased with my MDX.

    I drove this car for a week at Lake Tahoe while we were getting 9 feet of snow. Not a hint of a handling problem even when the roads were heavily iced. One great feature is that the drivers seat will lower to a point where you can get in and out of the car on ice without transferring all your weight when standing on ice.

  • Most adventurous vehicle - 2005 Acura MDX

    This is the most funnest car to drive on and off road. It has good mileage but at the same time a real nice pick up time from 0-60. Its great for all my needs. The only thing that to my disliking is the shape of the front of the mdx. It has an angular front and Id like it to be more flat.

    This is my second MDX and third Acura. When its time for service, my salesman picks up my MDX at work and leaves me his car for the day. Ive never had a minutes problem. These are great vehicles.

    Traded a 2003 LS 430 for this vehicle in order to secure the third row of seating. Ride not up to Lexus standards; however, all other features measure up and the value in relation to the SUVs from Lexus provided the decision to go with this vehicle.

  • Awesome SUV - 2005 Acura MDX
    By -

    This is the best vehicle Ive ever owned! There is not a single thing I wish it had that it doesnt have. Its the perfect vehicle--comfortable for lots of passengers when the extended family visits, or plenty of space to do major hauls of office supplies, etc. It does everything you could want with perfection. It handles like a dream--powerful, responsive, hugs the road, great visibility all the way around, and luxurious. Comfortable for long trips, and no more need to figure out your route to a place youve never been before--the navigation system will find your way and tell you every turn of he way. Its absolutely awesome ine very way! I LOVE my MDX!

    I appreciate the way my MDX handles. It is as comfortable as a sedan, yet with all the added space and uses like a truck. I am extremely pleased.

  • Early Review - 2005 Acura MDX
    By -

    Only a month old but a great first impression. I was afraid going to a 6 from a Jeep V8 but this MDX has plenty to torque in all ranges yet cruises at 1500 to 2000 RPM. Easy to drive with great handling and fantastic brakes. Sits a little highter than I am used to, and is larger overall - but the interior room is enormous and the rear camera on the Touring is to die for. While test driving I really spanked it in an empty parking lot and was impressed with the total stability. Lets see what the future brings.

  • My first Acura experience - 2005 Acura MDX
    By -

    So far so good. This is a very nice upgrade from my previous vehicle (RAV4L). The voice activated Navigation is worth every penny. I will report back in about 6 months.
