Would you mind taking a pic of your MDX from a 90 degree angle perfectly to the side so I can better see where the body side moldings line up under the doors? I'd really appreciate it.

 

It looks like the start of a good campaign.

Thanks printf! That actually works out pretty well.

 

I just seen the commercial in another thread posted by TSX69.

 

Thanks for the info as well as those great pics that you posted.

 

I didn't see the foglight listed in the Accessories list.

 

The list probably isn't updated yet.

 

I saw it on acura.com

 

Thanks for the photos printf. I'm trying to find a local dealer that has that interior to actually see. I like it though.

Question for everyone who's purchased at MSRP. Did MSRP include the destination charge? My dealer's initial offer excludes this but I'd like to know if other dealers charge this in addition to MSRP. Thanks.

 

Out of town n Dont hav the mdx tonite. Im headin to beach w it tomrrow.. Ill take pics of the moldings for u then. Fyi. Took trip and Avg 21mpg. But thats 180 mile trip plus another 110 miles around town and at least a total of a hour idling in driveway trying to figure out electronics.

. So far only disapointment is how acura disabled almoat all settings when u drive. U have to use voice commands. I swear it took me 15 minutes to use voice commands to program navi on road trip. Wife was beggin me to pull over so we could type it in. Any other 14' owners experience same?? Had vents blowing away from mics and windows closed. Not too happy about that. Took me 10 mins for it to realize i was sayin "e" and not b or c or d or Delete.... WAsnt too happy. Ride was real quiet though. Rides great.

 

Thank you very much! I am curious to see real world highway fuel economy from those of you who own them. I am thinking over 60mph we will see a significant drop likely because the MDX will not be able to keep 3 cylinders shut off but I hope to be wrong. I say this because I've been considering a diesel in other SUVs due to their propensity to drop less fuel economy wise at Interstate speeds.

 

That sucks that they took that away

 

The increased space behind the third row is a definite improvement over the outgoing model.

 

^Holy crap, I just notice there's a pair of sunglasses (pink) in the 2nd row seat on the passenger side. I've seen these pics multiple times and just noticed that.

 

This is the way all new Honda/Acura nav systems are and I agree it sucks. But the car should recognize the phonetic alphabet. That works better on letters that sound the same.

The voice controls are excellent, the more you are used to them. I teach my clients only how to use their Tech features by voice because if you understand this method and the steps, you can do it manually by button when stopped as well.

As the vehicle learns your voice a bit, and you learn how to and how not to say certain things, it becomes easier. Setting destinations and full addresses by voice, for example, are much faster by voice than typing.

 

^^^ maybe it's the camera angle but the interior of that white MDX looks awfully small.

 

Hi all...long time Acura (s) owner.... Just traded my 07' TLS for the 2014 SH-AWD MDX Tech+Ent Blk/Blk. Got $1,250 off MSRP and 14K for my trade (07' TLS) with 115K! I think I did pretty well. BTW I am really fuming mad that I have to spend another $1,700 for Running boards, backup sensors and Body Protective Side Molding + Labor Really! There are tons of Accessories but Acura Nickles and Dimes you to death on this Vehicle! You would think a SH-AWD Tech+Ent at least the backup sensors would be included!!! So far loving it. Verdict is out on gas mileage but so far getting 21MPG AVG. Love the Jewel Eye Headlights! Man are they bright!!! Interior wise it's long and narrow in my opinion. Third row seating is nice but hardly any room left for luggage! Couldn't justify the price of the Advance at $57,700 vs mine at $51,600. $6,100 difference + any accessories . I drove the Advance and it seemed to me that the vented/cooled seats were very "weak!" Also ..big deal you get a wide screen DVD screen vs the standard..meh..just couldn't justify the cost. My

 

I don't think is available yet, I tried to buy them yesterday and I was informed will be end of July or August..... can anyone confirm this??

Thanks!

 

Nice pics !! Did u notice any ratteling noise from the engine whe you are outside ? Mine is making this noise like an old car , I'm wondering if this is normal ?

 

Congrats on the purchase. Did MSRP include destination?

 

Most likely you're hearing the fuel injectors? If so, it's normal and a 'feature'

 

Thanks! Yes MSRP did include destination.

 

I'm guessin that's the characteristic of direct injection.

 

Thanks for the interior pics! That was my first choice combo but based on some other pics I was getting worried the eucalyptus wasn't as it appeared on the Acura site (too light/grey). I'm checking out the combo Thur (someone else's purchase but still at the dealer).

 

Really? I'd never guess that! Next Tuesday I have an appointment to install a bunch of acessories , I will ask them if this is the direct injection but it should be , like you said !

 

My dealer told me the fog lights are not available yet and also said July.

 

i read somewhere that the engine noise is a feature of DI.

 

That ticking noise? Yup
To be honest that's how I learned the engine was DI haha
I didn't know it
I guessed after hearing the engine noise and friend at the dealer confirmed

 

Yes!!! That is the noise I hear!!! So has to be it!!! Ok I will get used to it!

 

How do you like the headlights? Bright enough?
Sorry if already asked

 

They are very cool! It's very bright too, more than enough , there is no need for fog lights , but I will get it just for looks.

 

What other accessories are you getting? I'll be getting the body side moldings, front and rear bumper trims, rear bumper protector, and splash guards. I'm still undecided with the running boards as the new MDX is lower than the previous one.

 

I got body side molding, bumper protector, bumper trims front and rear, sport running boards , illuminated sill plates, cargo cover, cargo net, and will get fog light as soon it's available . I got everything from acura of Peoria 866-347-4510, they can give you 25% off and free shipping ! If you didn't buy the acessories yet call them to order, they are very good.

 

My dealer said july for the fogs. Tonite was first time had car out at night. Lo beams nice. High beams like lasers. I want fogs but more for asthetics, def not needed. Just drove 180 miles w thule on roof 4 people and full trunk. Got 25 mpg on mostly highway. Didnt think that was too bad considering the crap my wife packed.

 

Thanks! Did you get your accessories from them? If so, will you have the installation done by another dealer? My only concern is the warranty. Accessories will also be covered by the 4 year/50,000 mile warranty if bought with the new vehicle.

 

Got appt for this Thur to get installed at stealer... Advance Running Boards, Backup Sensors and Body Side Molding. 4yr/50,000 mile warranty through Acura.

 

Yes ! You will have the warranty, no problem. You can buy from any dealer and have another one to install it.
