Overview & Reviews

Other than some minor interior trim changes for the Touring package -- ebony-colored Zebra wood-patterned trim replaces last year's Burl wood, and satin chrome interior accents instead of bright chrome -- the Acura MDX is unchanged for 2006. New SAE testing procedures drop the MDX's horsepower rating from 265 to 253.

• Room for seven passengers or serious amounts of cargo, gutsy V6 engine, well-balanced suspension, top-rated crash test scores.

• Ho-hum interior design and materials, modest tow rating.

  Great Car! - 2006 Acura MDX
  By Diana S. Rumsey - October 7 - 6:19 pm

  Being that The Acura is my very first new car purchase, I did a great deal of research and comparisons. I am extremely pleased with my decision! The Acura MDX smooth & quiet to drive & holds curves well. The interior is comfortable & very adaptable. Both my husband and myself are physically handicapped and find the car to be a perfect fit for our needs.

  First Acura, Awesome SUV - 2006 Acura MDX
  By johnny wishbone - October 7 - 5:52 pm

  This is my first Acura and Im thrilled with it to say the least. The MDX handles like a sports car and has the comfort of a luxury vehicle. The interior is well thought out and the XM radio is a big hit with the family. The navigation is excellent and easy to use. The voice recognition is excellent once you learn the proper commands. I would highly recommend this vehicle to anyone in the market for a midsize SUV.

  Even better than the 2003 - 2006 Acura MDX
  By econ1 - September 23 - 8:16 pm

  We had 78,000 miles of our 2003 MDX (which we loved - never any problems - still had the original tires, brakes, etc.) and didnt particularly like the looks of the 2007, so opted for a new one minus the DVD package, which we never used. Its an unexpected significant improvement over the 2003 -- its more quiet, LOVE the Handsfreelink, and the NAVI systems works even faster than the one in the 2003 model. May have slightly more power, but the 2003 had plenty. Added a trailer hitch to this to tow PWCs. Have thoroughly enjoyed the XM radio as well. Weve already put 5,000 miles on this one in 2 months.

  Best SUV ever - 2006 Acura MDX
  By Tony - September 1 - 3:05 pm

  I have had many cars over my life time. I have enjoyed many brands as well. This time I traded my TSX for my MDX. Everyday I enjoy the MDX more and more. Funny thing... my 24 yr son wants to buy one as well. So it spans the generation. You will not be disappointed!

  Best value for the money paid - 2006 Acura MDX
  By Kelayilg - August 21 - 9:50 pm

  I replaced 2000 3.5RL with a 2006 MDX. I purchased it from John Eagle Acura Houston TX. For a Black on Black Touring model I paid $33,400 (including destination) +title and $50Doc. fee. I am pretty happy with the price and the performance of this beautiful SUV. Kids love the roomy interior with 7 seats. I think this SUV is one of the best value for your money. Smooth car like ride and the sleet look make it one of the best SUV’s out there. So far I am very happy with its performance.

  Very Pleased With This - 2006 Acura MDX
  By Bill - August 18 - 10:03 am

  I really wanted a TSX, but with the kids and boat, etc. that became impossible. I test drove this vehicle and could not believe it was an SUV. It handles (no kidding here) almost as good as my Audi A6 (dont laugh . . . really!) Very comfortable. Dont bother with the DVD package .. . you can buy each kid their own for a lot less. NAV however is well worth it. Surprisingly good voice recognition. Plenty of power (surprised here also. Bose system okay . . . Definitely get the Acuralink for Ipod . . . works GREAT. Some things dont make sense however, no lighted controls on steering, placement of clock . . . but next version expected to be better. A solid purchase.

  I Love This Truck! - 2006 Acura MDX
  By LovemyMDX - August 9 - 6:54 am

  I saw this truck on the highway when it first came out and had to know what it was. I loved the look. Then I did research and found it was one of the safest SUVs with its wide wheel base. When my husband and I went to test drive it I didnt. I just knew I loved it. So when I picked it up after ordering the color I wanted I enjoyed it more than ever. I just love driving this Truck. My 3 vehicles before were a 77 Camaro, 84 Trans Am, and a 93 Camry. It has great room for the kids and vacations. Plus its very easy to clean.

  Unbreakable! - 2006 Acura MDX
  By Tracer - August 1 - 5:27 pm

  Its a great drive, for a large (it really is large, once you see it next to a CRV or something) SUV. Fuel-wise, weve been getting better milage on the highway than Acura states, in the city it likes to drink a bit. Cars a little on the slow side (compared to our other vehicle, the 2005 Acura RL) but its very heavy of course. The car has never had problems, nothing ever breaks (unlike our previous Lexus, on which EVERYTHING broke within a year) and it just keeps going and going, especially considering my lead foot.

  Dream come true in 4 wheels - 2006 Acura MDX
  By awesome car/price - July 24 - 10:20 pm

  I purchased this vehicle at ryans open road acura in New Bruinswick, NJ. the sales person Mark Gershmann was tremendously helpful and did the best he could to make the shopping experience a one of a kind. i bought the silver with black interior with navigation for $36,602 which included the $615 destination fee.(they threw in the splash guards for free) it was an awesome deal i couldnt refuse. the car dealers instaquote system is great! The best price paid for the car.
