I quite like the new Acura MDX but it all ends there...I dont think I would own another Acura unless its something that was made between 1997 and 2005 
..and Maj, that is precisely the way to do it...all car companies have their "event" of the year with special financing, if you have the right credit, you walk away with great APR...
I still remember when I got the TL, my credit was only 3 months old and my APR was in double digits...The credit union I was with, helps by lowering your rate depending on how you have been doing without refinancing and restarting the whole loan...I would call them every 3 months to lower my rates...I paid the car off in 2 years and by the time it was paid off, I was at 4.x%....still very high, but cant complain since my credit was newer that the car LOL

Totally not the fault of old people driving while unable to drive safely, obviously. It's because your sorry ass is slaving 9 to 5 to pay your bills and you can't drive gramps to the mall.

Love the newer gens of MDX. My brosef who is an Acura master tech says the transmission is a bitch to pull though (worst than the first gen anyways). Not too many failures, and with good maintenance with fresh diff and trans fluid, should be good. TL was my first loan on a car, cars before were cash. I think my rate was 4.9 or 5.5% but I bought it for 12k so I was like.. surrrreeee!

I want to post in the RLX thread again, but I'm sure I will get in trouble.
05-21-2015, 11:20 AM
I would have bought an Equus.

idunno, i think im pretty much done with luxury cars.
only because they're getting more and more expensive. :le sigh:

why 1M.. why not 135?

1M is fucking badass. Previous Miata owner had one in like a sunburnt orange color on black BMW wheels. What a gorgeous car. So rare too. They'll keep their value much better than a 135, and will likely go up in value if kept stock and mint over the years. Faster than a 135 also...

well shit, I didnt know the newer Acura's were still plagued with transmission issues!
12K is not bad at all...I got my 2005 TL in 2007, it was CPO with factory warranty and the 12K miles add on warranty, and I talked em down to 22K if I remember right...
the loan was a bisshhh...since I was on a work visa, I only got a 36 month loan, not the traditional 60K...my payments were insane LOLOL...same with Insurance...it was high because of new credit as well as no driving record...
cash is the way to go unless you get a very low APR loan...

I sincerely wish those guys would spend a week in 3G ramblings... Their buttholes would never be the same. Butt hurt over a "fuck off"? Seriously? There would be blood all over the place here after day 1. And a lot of missing cactuses.

The M3 is the performance variant of the 3-series.
The M1 was the super car released in the 80s.
Because the M1 name was already used, BMW called what should have been the performance variant of the 1-series the M1, the 1M. It's fucking stupid.
But it is more than just trim...
