Pros: Great features and performance Cons: It's not a V8, no disappointment! The Bottom Line: If you want performance and great handling from your new SUV, go with 2001 Acura MDX. It's a minivan of a truck!
2001 Acura MDX is a great vehicle for the family since it can seat 7 passenger. Equipped with VTEC V6 engine, this 5-speed SUV showed proof of its worth a few days ago. I test drove it so you don't have to. I found out that it provides great...

Pros: Great looks and design, powerful 240hp engine, reasonable "WOW" factor (for now) Cons: Some design enhancements needed, add-on almost required, difficult to find The Bottom Line: Don't get me wrong, the Acura MDX is a good SUV. However, I will at least wait until next year before getting one.
I am fortunate to be able to drive the new 2001 Acura MDX. This is Acura’s first SUV in the US, and they want to do a good job with it.
My father has purchased this vehicle and likes it. Personally, I wouldn’t have bought it. Since there are...

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...

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...

Pros: Great ride, very comfortable, lots of options with the base model Cons: impossible to get, uses premium fuel The Bottom Line: If you can find one and stomach the premium gas charges go get one- you'll love it.
I have been looking for a SUV for wife since last September. We looked at them all and settled on the MDX for numerous reasons. One of which was the third row seat option. We just took delivery of the vehicle last week. The worst part about the car...

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...

Pros: Large interior Cons: four-wheel drive. Not too easy to handle The Bottom Line: Wait till a year or two, before buying this car. There is still room for improvements
This is one of the many cars that I have rented. I love cars and I enjoy trying out new cars. The brand new 2001 Acura MDX is a great car in general, however, I don't really like it. Maybe it is because I am not used to dring SUVs or maybe the...

Pros: Very roomy, rides very smoothly. Nice gas mileage for an SUV. Great sound system. Cons: General Quality. Engine is good, but transmission can be a little quirky at times. The Bottom Line: Buy a Lexus, much better quality, comparable price
I bought mine gently used, as we do all of our cars. Was driving the Lexus RX300 but wanted something with a 3rd seat for hauling extra passengers. Wrongly determining quality was the same as the Toyota/Lexus, we settled on the Acura. While all in all ...

Pros: sharp-looking, many new features, long-lasting Cons: none The Bottom Line: The Acura MDX is a durable, fun, and nice-looking car. It will last for a long time.
I used to have a SAAB and I needed a new car because I have kids now..preferably a bigger one. For my birthday, my husband got me an ACURA MDX SUV. I wanted an SUV because they are sharp looking and roomy, like the Acura MDX.

Pros: The Style is very futuristic and Aerodinamic. Cons: The lack of a low-range makes this S.U.V. a regular minivan. The Bottom Line: I recommend the MDX for familys with kids, tire of the usual minivan but want something not quite an SUV but a hybrid were compromises are best met.
The Acura MDX is a very versatyl SUV, the style is for some people a liked or hated. The Interior offers great comfort in a very technologycal way. The fact that is using the same platform from the Honda Oessys means that space is abundant. The...

Pros: Powerful Engine, versatile 3rd row of seats, very comfortable and lots of room Cons: Stock stereo could be better. The Bottom Line: If you are in the market for an upper-class, luxury SUV you MUST check out this Acura. In my opinion it gives the most value, comfort, power, and room.
I fell in love with this car the first time I gave it for a spin. The engine is very powerful for an SUV (much more powerful then comparable vehicles such as the Lexus RX300). And it gives great acceleration.
Interior comfort is also at...

Pros: Is a truck but drives like a car. Cons: When two extra seats come up there isnt much trunk room. The Bottom Line: This is one hell of an SUV
Trust me this car rocks. It has everything from two extra seats to heated front seats. Well I gues i should tell you all about it. It has a V8 engine that runs as smooth as butter. It has a great Bose speakers and a Bose cd player that holds 6 cds in the...

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.
