Acura ZDX...

Rather than taking the 'Manning' thread off topic, thought I move this to here!

Disagree...but then, who wants to get into a pissing contest over aesthetics! I have seen this in person and will likely replace my MDX in the next year or so...it is absolutly beautiful...

Re: Acura ZDX...

Love the interior, hate the interior, but the real Q is how does it handle & what's it got for go? Oh, and what can it pull for a trailer? If it can't haul a race bike & gear it may as well just be a bike...

Re: Acura ZDX...

Isn't it a fancy Accord Crosstour.... I don't understand the "concept" thing because I believe I have been seeing them at Acura dealerships for months.

Re: Acura ZDX...

The Honda Accord Crosstour and Acura ZDX are not mechanically related, despite the common misconception. They are two completely different vehicles, although they are both large 5-door hatchbacks.

Wheels courtesy of Infinity.

Other than the imposing grill piece, I like it.

Re: Acura ZDX...

I personally think that the exterior look of Acura's current line-up is a big step backwards from the previous generations. What the hell happened to the TL?

Dont disagree...

For me, it's a perfect Tow Vehicle. Same platform as my current MDX with more goodies inside...and I do love goodies...and a style outside that I like.

I saw one at Sunnyside Acura. Umber Interior...

It had me drooling....

Re: Acura ZDX...

I saw one the other day and it looked great.
Of course I like the BMW X6 and GT550 twin turbo better

I think the interior is gross and the front end is gross, the end.

Re: Acura ZDX...

Acura's current line-up is horrendous. Seriously, that buck-toothed grill has got to go.

What's the point of upscale if it's uglier than the downscale?

Re: Acura ZDX...

This whole crossover deal is just making cars ugly. They're like the fatter uglier sister you bang instead cause the hot one is just to much work to nail.

but instead of buying a tow-vehicle that tows well you would buy this thing and be stuck with a car/tow-vehicle that sucks as a car MPG's and is mediocre as a tow vehicle.

hell you could slap a hitch on your tl and have a very nice tow vehicle that is an awesome car (unless its a lemon like jims car)

AMEN! And this is why we don't ride dual sports. And why I off-road on sport bikes. ok... the second part may be partially because I'm stupid, but the first part stands.

btw, obsolete, got aim? I want to break your balls about something off-forum.
