First my disclaimer: I've taken this car on 2 lengthy test-drives and because we are a family of 5 we decided on the MDX over this. That being said, this car made me want to force the issue and try to cram 3 people in the back. The over-the-top bold and modern design inside and out must be seen in person to appreciate. The car drives incredibly smooth and quiet even in sport mode. The speed and handling are top notch, it has the most comfortable car seats I've ever used, and they are heated and cooled seats, and the cooled seats are what luxury is all about, they work really well. The blind spot warning system is a must and works to perfection.
Love my ZDX but NOT loving Acura

The advance package on Acura cars have a known damper issue requiring all 4 struts to be replaced at a cost of around $4000!!! Acura extended the warranty but refuses to honor it. Acura Client Relations leaves a lot to be desired, they are awful. They give you no information and when you give them information their only answer is, "Sorry, there is nothing we can do". That's the response to everything. Under TSB B16-021 and B16-022 expiry 7 years after original purchase date (Feb 2011 according to the title) I'm well within the time frame. "Sorry, there is nothing we can do". "If you had another Acura or Honda product maybe we could support you on goodwill. But you don't, so we can't support a case for goodwill, you can try the dealership. Sorry, there is nothing we can do." I asked the dealership to call Acura on my behalf, guess what they were told. Yep. "Sorry, there is nothing we can do". So I love my ZDX, the look, the performance, the comfort, everything, but Acura? No. Because of Acura Client Relations I won't purchase another Acura, its a shame because I love the cars, but I can't support a company that doesn't stand behind its product. I guess we both lose out.

Its either you love the way it looks or you hate it. Great on the highway but living in the NY area driving in the city can be a bit nerving. Lets face it , there are numerous blind spots and I'd never ever drive it in the city if it didn't have the Advantage Pkg. This SUV is heavy @ 4500 pounds and you feel it. When I drive it I keep it in sport mode. Their are soooo many bells and whistles that it may take a good 6 months to learn them all. You never need to take your hands off the wheel. Just tell the car what you want and it does it.....short of driving itself. You feel very safe in this monster. Hense the huge price tag. Its only been about 3 weeks. Just add some wings to this baby!
This is truly a driver's car

I love the fact that with SH-AWD the more gas you give it the better it hugs the turns. You really can feel it working and shuffling power around as needed when driving enthusiastically. I spent a few weeks with it in the snow and actually tried to make the tires slip by jumping on the gas. All the electronics went to work and I briskly took off with no drama. The ZDX easily has one of the best interiors of any vehicle in its price range or even above it, and with the advance package you get the adjustable shocks to smooth things out when the wife is in the car. Switching from Comfort to Sport mode feels like going from a Lexus RX to a BMW X5 but with even better handling.
ZDX... Who's this car designed for?

The most frequent question asked about the ZDX is "Why?" The automotive magazines and automotive websites all want to slot this car in the crossover category when just like the BMW X6, it just doesn't fit. Is this really a problem? I don't think so. This car is an able, capable, looker! It stands out in the crowd and always provokes favorable comments wherever I go. In a world where so few cars stand out (Mini Cooper, Fiat, Fisker are exceptions), the ZDX stands out and I love that aspect more than anything else. The ZDX is luxurious, well-equipped, and fun to drive. The Advance Package is recommended as the features aid the driver tremendously. This is a great vehicle but not for everyone.
Great in the Snow!

I have had the ZDX for six months and I do like it quite a bit. There are a couple of negatives but overall it is a very fine vehicle--well designed and built and great to look at. I particularly want to note that it is outstanding in the snow. Acura has been running commercials featuring its SUV line capering around on ski slopes. It is all true! This car performs extremely well in snow. When a very ugly 6 inches hit here in the Mid Atlantic, the ZDX handled it like a champ when others failed. The technology package is spectacular. The only criticisms are 1) seat comfort--very stiff, not luxurious, promotes fatigue IMHO 2) gas mileage: not good at all. That is disappointing
ZDX perfect for me, not for everyone

I love my ZDX! That said, I am a retiree, and probably 90% of my trips include just my wife and I. This car is as close to a sporty car as I want to go, but I get a kick out of the many positive comments I get on its style etc. I have running boards, which light up at night to the extent that when I approach my car in the dark and unlock the doors, it looks like a cruise ship. I also don't haul much, and don't plan to, so the big negative versus the MDX (my old car), lack of cargo space, is moot for me. The interior of this car is the nicest, classiest interior I've ever seen in an automobile, and my two closest neighbors drive Lexuses and Mercedes (biggest models of each).

Love many aspects of this car - exterior styling, interior comfort and design, tech features, sound system etc...price/value equation vs. BMW X6 Have had sunroof quality/adjustment issue which I did not expect from Acura. Acceleration/Power/MPG trade-off not that compelling vs BMWs I've owned.

This car is lightening agile lane to lane but in a sustained curve it tends to roll and under steer. I believe this is because the zdx has a high center of gravity and perhaps made worse because of its heavy all-glass roof. The zdx has very poor throttle response, just lots of lag, and utterly no steering feedback! Keep your eyes glued to the road! Build quality is super and interior cabin is quiet. Rear seating in too cramped for most adults except for short trips, and, I find that even in the driver's seat my head often brushes the roof. IMO driver controls are dangerously complicated. All in all I find the zdx middling to poor in terms of fun to drive.
Awesome Vehicle

We are a family of four who purchased this car recently. The online photos don't do this car justice! The sound system is amazing and the technology package is incredible! The ride is smooth and quiet and we've witnessed multiple heads turning as we drive into shopping centers and on the highways. Want a car that gets you noticed? This is definitely the one to buy. Our two kids love the attention they get when I pick them up from school! They love the dual DVD player and game system which was installed and constantly ask us to take them for a ride. Great look, Great Feel. Acura has really out done themselves this time!
A perfect 10,but maybe not for everyone

I really like this car. It's clearly not for everyone and although it's a crossover it's capacity is limited so in reality it's a hatchback coupe with four doors. We also have a Honda van and an Acura MDX so this is my personal driver. It's comfortable, with a lot of nice features, plenty of power and a fun car to drive. I'm now looking for places to drive it I enjoy it so much.
Love my ZDX

While I thought the new ZDX looked terrific in photos, it is way better looking in person. Good performance, definitely not a sports car. Great design inside and out. Very quiet and comfortable. This is not a family car, but I would recommend it to anyone who doesn't regularly need the back seat.
Awesome, but blind spot a deal breaker

Reviewer's mindset: Adrenaline before luxury. I went from pure joy of the ZDX's luxury and looks to missing my RDX in just two weeks. The ZDX is a hot rod in sport mode, but without the scary (exciting) surge of the RDX. The ZDX makes curves unnoticeable that my RDX has to work at. However, my RDX feels much more agile and fun. The ZDX is incredibly comfortable but bangs heads with adult rear passengers on entry. The ZDX CAN race through traffic, but its TERRIBLE drivers side blind spot and dimensions took a lot of effort to overcome. So I cruised slowly in ultimate luxury, but this got old quickly. I WANTED to LOVE the ZDX. Thank God it was only a two week loaner.
Great Performer

This car is AMAZING! From the sculpted exterior, to the performance drivetrain, and finally the ergonomic interior, Acura didnt miss a thing. After 10 years of Lexus crossovers (RX300, 330, and 400h), I needed something with driver involvement. Driver involvement doesnt even begin to describe the fun I have driving hard on descending radius ramps or merging into traffic. This thing is a hoot! During my daily commute, when I cant play, the ELS stereo reproduces sound that is far superior to the Mark Levinson systems from the Lexus RX. My only complaint is the mileage. I expected to hover in the 18-19 mpg range, but so far its just over 16mpg. Again, AMAZING barely describes it.
Incredible look, High rev fun, Reliable

I love my ZDX and all the head turning it evokes from people. I got the grigio metallic exterior with the Umber interior. I love the styling and the comfort and handling, probably because I do not sit in the back seat. If I could tweak anything, I would add more headroom to the back seat and have the sun roof open wider. Other than that, this car is perfect for me and is my 4th Acura and 8th Honda product I have owned.
Great car if you're short

Everything about this car is typically Acura. Great build. Excellent ergonomics. The only thing lacking is head room. With the driver's seat all the way down my head was within 2" of the ceiling. (I am 6 foot tall). I couldn't get into the back seat. Not only was it difficult physically, but my head touched the ceiling. Loved the car but would never buy one.
great car!

Bummer. Interior pieces falling out, center console cheap silver plastic easily scratches, after 2 months looks terrible. VERY SLOW for the looks and power.
