Acura of Baton Rouge

My wife and I purchased a 2022 MDX SH-AWD Advance with Liquid Carbon Metallic paint and an Ebony interior from Acura of Baton Rouge. We ordered the vehicle on April 22, 2021. It arrived on June 4th. We were not in town, but picked up the MDX on June 8th. The entire process of choosing an MDX, ordering the vehicle, coordinating picking it up, and then the buying experience when we picked it up was very positive. Bethany Gonzales was our Senior Sales Consultant. I asked her to work up several lease vs purchase options. She was very patient with my many questions and multiple visits to the dealership. Jonathan Hutchens, Finance Manager, handled the final purchase details on the day we picked up the MDX. Jonathan was very pleasant and gave us some options to consider. There was no pressure, so my wife and I were very comfortable discussing what made sense while sitting in Jonathan's office. He would offer his thoughts as we thought about what made sense for us. Even after we drove off with the new MDX, I found some items in the paperwork that didn't make sense to me, so I emailed Jonathan. He was very prompt and helped clear things up quickly. It would not matter what type of Acura you might consider buying, both Bethany and Jonathan were easy to work with and were very patient. As far as the vehicle, we were looking for a nice 3-row SUV (not for our kids...but to use with our grand-kids). When considering comfort, safety, quality, reliability, and usefulness we finally decided the new 2022 Acura MDX was the right choice for us. We considered the Lexus GX. Loved the SUV, but the infotainment system was too outdated. When comparing the MDX to the Audi Q7, for comparable equipment, there just wasn't a fair comparison when it came to price. We have owned several Lexus products in the past, and we did look at Mercedes, BMW, and Audi...but this new MDX just beat all the competition as an all around best choice for us. Very few miles on the MDX so far, but we are enjoying the vehicle. A lot of flexibility in the infotainment system, the safety systems, and the driving experience. We'll probably keep this one for a long time.
