Fly first class: 1 year later update in REAL world conditions...

by Northern_sage
May 17 '01 - Updated May 22 '02 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Handled awful driving conditions with power, confidence and safety; a joy to drive
Cons: Quirky CD player eats discs, mirrors whistle
The Bottom Line: Handles the worst roads with comfort, safety and confidence. Best sound system going, just don't feed it thick CDs. No problems after a solid year of driving; it's all good!

I had a Mazda Tribute and was very happy with it; great price, superb handling, thrilling power/weight ratio, even at highway speeds still lots of acceleration tucked away ready for passing.

But...I carry more than five people sometimes and...

Pros: roomy, powerful, good looking, great value, environmentally friendly
Cons: nothing significant
The Bottom Line: It's a great vehicle for the price. It's comfortable, roomy, rides great, and is environmentally friendly.

After owning the sporty BMW 328 for a little over a year, the boyfriend and I (OK, mostly just the boyfriend) decided that it was time for a change. A big change! That change was to come in the form of the Acura MDX. After having the car for about two...

My experience with MDX 2001

by jamesc800
Jan 26 '01 - Updated Feb 08 '01 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Good fuel economy for a SUV. The VTEC engine is powerful and ULEV rated.
Cons: Some wind noise and leather squeaks. Rear looks like a minivan.
The Bottom Line: Buy this, if you don't want a huge truck based SUV but need seating for 7 plus a utility cargo.

VTEC engine with 240 horse power and 50 states ULEV. I averaged about 19 MPG in the city (17 city / 23 hwy). The interior has versatile seating configuration and cargo space. Fold down seats are the best (2 row -60/40 3rd row 50/50). The stereo system...

If you are looking for a small, luxury sport utility vehicle that seats 7, then this is the SUV for you!

The Acura MDX has a lot to offer! It is a small, luxury sport utility that seats 7 people comfortably. There are 4 levels of the MDX....

by Magick1 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: 4 wheel drive when needed, luxurious seats, comfortable ride
Cons: Center console awkward for drinks, could spill easily and affect seat controls for heat
The Bottom Line: Wonderful vehicle, comfortable ride, plush leather interior and seats, excellent ride for long trips or short! Terrific surround sound Monsoon stereo with 6-disk CD player.

The Acura MDX is a top notch SUV. The ride is tremendous and provides a lot of luxury that is right up their with the Lincoln, Mercedes and Lexus SUV's.

The mileage is somewhat better than most of the SUV's. With our...

Sep 07 '01 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Smooth, quiet handling, crisp braking, comfort, cargo capacity
Cons: Wind noise with moon roof open on highway, hard to get into 3rd row seating
The Bottom Line: Overall the MDX handles very well, much like a car. If you are looking to get a lot of value for your money, the MDX is well worth it!

Well I have to say that the MDX was worth every penny I spent on it. My wife and I just drove to Vermont for the weekend and it performed beautifully. We are both in love with this SUV.

There are very few things we dont like about the MDX so...

Best SUV out there.

by cashdude
Jul 29 '01 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Good handling, smooth ride, luxury seats, nice SUV to drive.
Cons: Fake wood(doesn't matter to me).
The Bottom Line: Well, if you're lookin' or a SUV that's isn't huge, isn't expensive, and IS great, then this is the car for you.

So, you are looking or a SUV to buy. After hard decisions, you have two SUV's left. The 2001 Acura MDX, and the 2001 BMW X5. Finally, you go for the MDX; cheaper, has almost all that the X5 has, looks great, is one of the "luxurious" SUV's.

MDX is for you?

by acuratl
Apr 30 '01 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Great value. Sleek look. Innovative 4wd design. Everything is standard.
Cons: 1st year model. Dealer markups.
The Bottom Line: If you are in the market for an SUV and wants something that drives like a car, this is the one for you.

We bought our MDX on November of 2000 when it first came out. It was very hard to find a dealership that is willing to sell it to you at MSRP. We basically paid about $1500 over MSRP but we got to choose the color we wanted and the accessories we...

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Carlike truck, Good performance, Classy Appearance, Large Interior, Good value

The Bottom Line: You want the RX300 but need the 3rd row but don't want the Suburban.

Acura has done a fine job with their recent cars designs. The TL sedan CL couple have everything but personality. The MDX suffers from the same problem. Besides that it is an excellent vehicle. The Engine offers good performance keeping it right next...

Acura MDX

by dachuanchen
Mar 14 '01 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: car like roomy refined innovative features
Cons: third seat is too small for adults. Moderate cargo room with third seat up.
The Bottom Line: New, upscale. Incredible technology and craftsmanship separates the MDX from the rest.

The MDX was developed by Honda for those who don't know. They spent plenty of time developing the "perfect all-terrain vehicle." 7 years to be exact. Anyway, it's release in 2000 astonished everyone including myself. At first, I was pretty skeptical...

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Excellent road manners, great value, lots of nice features, great navigation system
Cons: No V-8 option, looks are less than aggressive.
The Bottom Line: The nest Value in its class and probably the easiest to live with in the long run.

Ever since the SUV craze hit in the early 90’s there has been a constant move toward the upscale market. Today we have seen the emergence of four major players in the $40K pseudo-SUV market, they are vehicles from traditional luxury marques and all...

A Great All-Around SUV

by LSMillers Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500
Jan 21 '01 - Updated Jan 25 '01 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Lots of space, power, utility, and comfort
Cons: no history, below-average braking, cabin noise
The Bottom Line: A great all-around SUV for people who have young families or who otherwise need to haul lots of stuff. Top-rated by Car and Driver and Motor Trend magazines.

We originally put down a deposit on the MDX, but later switched to the BMW X5. There's much to recommend the MDX, and we continue to believe that it will be an ideal SUV for many people.

There’s no such thing as the perfect vehicle to meet...
