Used 2005 Acura MDX AWD 4dr SUV (3.5L 6cyl 5A) Consumer Reviews
Large amount of storage space and good engine.
The 2005 Acura MDX is an overall good SUV. The seven-seater with a back row of three has plenty space. The back row folds down easily and provides good space for when extra storage is needed. One downside to the seating is the actual seat. The seats tend to be uncomfy during longer rides than similar SUVs. The acceleration is decent for the age of the vehicle. The average gas mileage is around 200 miles. Problems for long-term use are the sunroof can leak.

A great minivan alternative
I love the seating for 7. Driving the MDX feels like driving a car, no heavy truck feel. I think I'll stay with this one for a while!

2005 MDX Premium
I have had Hondas for 15 years and have owned two CRV's during that time. This Acura was a bit of a splurge for me, but I felt it was a step above the Honda Pilot, offering a solid, quality vehicle with a little more luxury, comfort and style. I spend a couple of hours per day in my car, so I am pleased with the purchase so far. I have two kids, and the MDX comes standard with side curtain airbags, which the Pilot does not. So far, I am impressed with the MDX and the smooth ride and responsive handling. It handles well in rain and snow, and hugs dry pavement much better than my small SUVs. Highly recommend this quality vehicle. Loads of room, too!
Better than average crossover suv
We looked at the all-too-vanilla Honda Pilot for while, but we decided that it was so Honda that we couldn't bring ourselves to buy one. The MDX is a good compromise between blah and full-blown luxury. The ext. styling leaves something to be desired,but the versatility of the interior is what sold us over the Lexus RX330. We carry anything and everything in the MDX. Acura could do much better by adding the basic $38k items like daytime lights, seat memory and auto wipers. Ride is ultra smooth and quiet. Plenty of power and nicely appointed inside. A bit pricey for what it is though. Add auto-locking doors and power pass. seat to up the sense of value!
I Love It!!
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...
