Only few negatives to get out of the way... Coming from the German SUVs including the last one being a Cayenne, I would say the handling is on the "comfort" side. And the center cluster is just way too cluttered for any standard. Nevertheless, MDX makes up with enough grunt for such a heavy car and an exceptional value, especially w tech/ent that was by far the best deal compared with any comps, including JX. Very comfortable cruiser with ample room and storage and awesome audio too. We will continue to monitor if the Acura reliability is what people say it is....
Why buy anything else?

Everything about my MDX speaks luxury, from the Led headlights , my 19inch stoke rimes to the Acura emblems. I truly enjoy the power &beauty of my MDX. I'll keep this one as long as she will have me. Then I'll purchase another one. Thank you Acura for building such a wonderful SUV crossover!

We owned a 2007 MDX which was a great SUV. Drove it on a trip out west to see the National Parks, 8,000 miles and it never used a drop of oil. In 2013, we gave it to our son and bought a 2013 MDX. We thought the last year of a model would be the best, all bugs worked out - wrong. It consumed oil from the time it left the lot. We took it to dealers in NC, MD and MA. They all said that using a qt. in 1,000 miles was acceptable. We only used it on long trips so a consumption test was difficult to do. We ended up extending the warranty for 5 yrs. and 70,000 miles. We knew the engine wasn't reliable long term. We carried several qts. of oil in the car with disposable funnels and filled it back up when it needed it, usually around 1,000 miles. We just traded it in with 91,000 miles. We received the notice of the class action suit against Honda/Acura over the situation and figured we'd never get rid of it once the word spread. Acura did extend the warranty for the issue but from what we read, it is difficult to get them to work on the engine and even replaced blocks leak oil. We loved the handling and comfort. It felt safe. But, Acura blew it on the engine and they refused to acknowledge the problem promptly and the recourse isn't satisfactory. Would never consider an Acura again.

We did the oil consumption test through our local Acura dealer. It was determined that 1 quart of oil lose in 1000 miles is within industry standards. Maybe back in 1945. We were very disappointed. I would stay away from this automobile. We sold it for a loss to Carmax. I just couldn't sell a broken car to a friend or another person. Carmax knew what they we getting.
