A few of us Sacto. guys headed over to our ACURA dealer today and hung out for a bit. I was talking to my sales rep about our new MDX and asked him about the 2003s. He said no to the 3.8, but said they will increase H.P. on the 3.5 to 260 !! Also, the back row DVD setup in the Pilot will be available. We love our 2002, but i would love to have the extra 20 ponies, i'm sure my wife doesn't care though and it is hers.

 

maybe it is just replacement part that u can buy from the dealer and install it yourself.

 

That's what i'm hoping, hell maybe it's a better intake !!

 

that info is in this months C&D

 

We can't wait for our '03. They delayed the Navigation equipped ones until November. It's suppose to get the updated Navigation system the new Accord is coming with. We ordered the one with Navigation and DVD player for the rear. . .

 

Hmm, more power....How about some real wood and better leather? HIDs. U know stuff that seperates a luxury badge from other cars.....

 

Man if they increase the Hp of the MDx i may have so seriuos decsitons to make. I am soo in the mood for a SUV again and i love the MDX soo much, but shit, i want the G35 soo bad. I guess i will have to test drive them both and see which i like more, and which one will replace my cl-s........

Is this a start of a Acura-MDX forum?

 

My bro has a '02 mdx and the low end torque seems to be sluggish but once it gets rolling its fine


no, this is 'car talk'

 

what the mdx really needs are HIDS's

 

no cause one already exist

I ran into one of our fellow CL-S'ers at the Roseville Automall yesterday at the BMW dealership. This dude pretty much blew me off when I tried talking to him. It was silver, lowered, tints, exhaust, CAI, headers, and rims. Do you know who this is Red?

I really like the MDX. I thought they had HIDs.

Ash, there was one guy named 290 hp with a Silver CL-S similar to the one you described, the wheels were 18 inch Tenzos. He was from the Roseville area. Hammer ran into him once but he seemed uninterested in us.
Yeah, we love our MDX, i thought it had HIDs also.

 

nope no HID

 

No it isn't a 2003. This is my customized 2001 MDX. I have no dynos to know exactly what the hp is but defineatly an improvement over stock.
