Hallo VXers!
What do you think about Acura ZDX? May be anybody have that car?
I want to bay it, i think this shoud be nice vehicle after VX.
What do you say?
It's a nice looking SUV.
Acura definately did a good job,however to me the best looking SUV out there is the BMW X6.
The MDX is also a nice approach.
My wife has had one for the last 18 months. I actually prefer it over the BMW, but each to his/her own. Bulletproof reliability, INCREDIBLY quiet inside (inside of doors and fenders are lined with foam, plus they have some kind of "noise cancelling" exhaust system that REALLY works), good fit and finish. When *I* drive it, I always put it in "Sport" mode - tightens up the shifting, steering, and suspension. It ain't no Vehicross, but it'll do!:bwgy:
Thanks for your answers guys, it will be next my car after VX.
Just for grins I speced out the ZDX with all the options I would want - $65K. I didn't see the "2 back doors delete" option! :)
it doesn't have enough plastic side paneling.

Apparently the x6 is no VX either.Quote:
I like it! and it even comes in Foxfire, er, um, I mean Dark Cherry Pearl. Used to have a '91 white Legend Coupe all pimped out, (hey I lived in LA) chrome rims, lowered.....sawweeeet!!!! Always have had a sweet spot for Acuras until their designs got way too bland, this ZDX is kinda starting to turn the corner on bland.Quote:

I can see me driving one of them some day......hmmm.....Ganz, what color do you have? If it's one of the darker colors, I'm pretty sure you need to sell it and get a lighter color now that you live in the Valley of the Sun. :bgwo:
A blind-spot warning system? We don't need no stinkin' blind-spot warning system! We drive the car that invented the blind spot! :laugho:

We certainly do ;)
I remember that episode of Top Gear with the BMW X6. It was fun to point & laugh when the camera crew in the Land Rover made it up the grassy hill, but the X6 sat there spinning halfway up. I thought it would have been more fun to see what it would do if it had something close to off-road tires instead of the stock performance street tires. Still, watching it slide backward down the same hill with the back tires sliding and the front tires rolling (in park with the hand brake on) was kind of disturbing.
I enjoyed laughing at that too. Never watched it til a month or two ago. But they have been running marathons of it on BBC America and I beleive I have seen most of the 20 years. I wonder what their budget is?Quote:

It's certainly more "practical" than a VX, but I still prefer my VX to the ZDX; it sits up higher, has a tighter turning radius, and is more "nimble" in traffic. I remember a post someone made about the VX, that once you get used to "driving around" the blind spots, you can go through traffic like a herding dog through a flock of sheep (liberally paraphrased, due to my bad memory!)...
I am confused, isn't that thing just the typical acura rebadged honda? It looks like the crosstour to me with some minor body stuff. Who the hell pays 60K for a honda of any kind? I am not seeing how this is even in the same category as the VX?

Their budget has to be big considering some of the things they do in their specials! Hey, if you have Netflix streaming, they have seasons 2 through 15 available. I've never seen anything earlier than season 5 on BBC America.Quote:
