Being a visitor of the TOV forum (Temple of Vtec) and talking with a dealer I know that Acura is trying to go head to head with the 6 versions of Cayenne and X5. The suspension was tested on the same German track that the European uses. If all they cared about was soccer moms they would not be jumping into the ALMS P2 class.
That said in the styling department IMO the effort is weak. In terms of handling and performance this is a new direction for the MDX which they needed to do because of the RDX.
