It is the RDX. Look at the mirror. It's mounted on door.

I originally found this photo from a blogger in the Bay Area. He saw it go by, and thought it was an RDX. I've been unable to contact him to verify what he saw, but I assume he saw a badge or something else that told him it was the RDX driving by.

Also keep in mind the picture looks to be taken in downtown san francisco, and this came out before the whole SF photo shoot of the RDX from Acura PR. I still think its the RDX, but who cares at this point

Why are we still debating when it's obviously not the RDX??? The RDX photo's are out, just compare the two and you'll know it's not the RDX.

Cool Well, here is the answer.

I saw one of those things you are calling an RDX, it is the new Chevrolet Equinox. Enough said!

Seeing as how you have a grand total of 2 posts, you have about this much credibility right now...

Um, there is no new Equinox, and the spypic in this thread doesn't look anything like the current Equinox.

I have to recant and say that it is the RDX. The angle may have made it look elongated, but looking at everything else, the side mounted mirrors, chrome handle bars, etc., it's the RDX. I originally thought it might have been the Subaru Tribeca cause that's anout the only other SUV that comes close to this shape, but it's not.

I could be wrong, but I think he was kidding.

I agree with TLGundee. looks an awful lot like the Subaru Tribeca. My guess..its hard to tell since the car is in motion.

Compared to this:

The Truth

The truth to the reason I say I know it is not an RDX. The PRODUCTION RDX back window is rounded, and the whole thing is shorter in length. The reason... I work for Honda, at the plant that produces the RDX. Sorry to burst your bubble. And NO... I will not take a picture of it. I have no info if they are going to be two-tone, but the one that is sitting outside my office is not, it is all silver, I have to say it looks great!

Ok, I was going to let this die, until I saw this pic in the Motor Trend article. Yes the D pillar looks different, but that could be glare on the back window. Everything else is a dead ringer, IMO.

I concede...

I have to admit, it is an RDX you guys are right. the C pillar is painted blue instead of the final production sash tape, and the back window has had black masking added behind it to throw off anybody who sees it. The D pillar is what made it look so much longer. Thank you for the magazine photo. It has totally changed my tune. I will withdraw from this discussion and bow gracefully to all who believed I was an Idiot. Have a great day.

Nah, no one's an idiot... I also thought that it looked way to long to be the RDX, until I saw that pic in motor trend. Something about that angle does make it look like it has different proportions. I can't to see one in person (they didn't bring it to the Portland Auto Show), I'd like to know if, in person, it looks more like the streched, longer picture... or the shorter, more athletic picture.

I saw it at the Dallas Auto Show and as much as I can remember, it looks more like the latter.

simply... if it's not shot at the Honda development plant in Japan, it's not an 2007 MDX.. Honda is very tight liped with their new product. You will never see a 2007 MDX on the American soil until it's released.

That may be true, but the subject of this thread (and board) is RDX, not MDX.
