I'm jealous over the new MDX

I dont know if this is the right place to post this but, expect some words to not make sense.

I saw an video reviewing the new 2017 MDX.

im angry over the Power-Folding Mirrors. I dont got it in my TL but I'm a man. A Practical man and I will make it work. probably isnt in the 3G Garage but LISTEN! well keep reading
I know the RLX has it and im not angry. Acuras flagship sedan. But If im right, the MDX is the 2nd model to receive Power-Folding Mirrors.

And the new Diamond Pentagon Grill. I dont like it or hate it. but it somewhat fits in with the rest of the car.

I have yet to get to the SF Auto show and look at it in person but, from pictures I like the new captain chair arrangement. Like another front row

I forgot everything else I was going to say.
I might post it later on.

put down the whiskey!


you have a 10 year old car. you cant compare a 10 year old car to a brand new one.
if you want power folding mirrors, buy a brand new car!

Don't be jealous, don't be envious. Either be happy with what you've got or put your money where your mouth is and just buy it and be happy that way!

I have thought of buying one, I may get it. If I do, It will be in a few years.

I wrote that late at night, and it is confusing and illogical, and horrible.

But if you buy a 2017 MDX in a few years, you'll again be kicking yourself because the 2020 or 2021 MDX will have shit the 2017 MDX doesn't.

Honestly, they're folding mirrors. They serve near zero purpose unless you always park in tight spots. And if that is the case, I'd be more worried about door dings then a mirror getting busted off. Plus, people won't come flocking over to your car because the mirrors go in. 99% of people won't even notice

And the superior aerodynamic will equal that of the NSX. But only after the upgraded tires are purchased.

I like my folding mirrors. I park my car on the street, and folding the mirror has become a second nature thing. It is just something I do. Folding the mirror using electricity would be nice for me.

I agree with this. If the Spot I'm in is too tight to leave my mirrors out, its too tight for me to get in and out without dinging the next guy...and getting dinged in return.
