He still has the 2005 and 2008.
I guess it shows how much he likes them. I am the one that convinced him not to get an X5 back in 04 because I hated the old style, and I thought he would get a Range Rover but he ended up going for an MDX.

2004->2005 He went to buy my sister a TSX and ended up trading his as well.
2007->2008 He went in for service and came out with an 08.

Is this your way of saying that the MDX is an old man's car?

I would have bought MDX too if x6 didn't have a better vector drive. German cars have better brakes too.

Well I might go with a "C" word but it would be Copycat.

What do you think the odds are that the rear end will look better than the X6?

I bet the X6 will look better from the front, though.

Haven't heard that that term since high school auto-shop...good way to put it.

My guess is it will be performance oriented (thinking NSX), light, and fun. Any idea what it will be called?

Car will have Honda/Acura SH-AWD...torque vectoring.SH-AWD (Torque Vectoring) was invented by Honda.It is the foundation for BMW's DPC in the X6. This Acura will have at least 300hp and very possibly Honda's first ever V8.This is a real deal performance crossover...the first real competition in looks/style and road performance for the X6.The car will be positioned above the Acura MDX and be the top line Acura/Honda product in their lineup.BMW is paying close attention to this vehicle.Will be a very niche product for Acura....20,000 or so cars a year.One to keep an eye on.Thanks!
