I've seen it, I've been for a ride in it. I hated the prototype, I wasn't found of the production model in pictures. Live and in person, it's pretty impressive, not nearly as large as you think it would be. The lines are much more attractive in person than in pictures.

still cheaper than a BMW X6 3.0L Twin-Turbo - which I believe is the targeted competition (about the same general HP/Torque for that trim)
I like the looks of it, and it's not gonna be for the masses, this will be for those who want something unique and have the cash to pay for it (i.e. those who would otherwise buy an X6)

Its O.K. looking, but I don't know if its worth the money. Especially because of how bad the fuel economy is supposed to be. I think its as bad as or worse than the MDX.

^ as far as looks, I'm not too fond of the ZDX, or any car in this "segment". As a matter of fact, I hate the entire segment.
Who's bright idea was it to make a car that had the space and practicality of a coupe, the size of an SUV, the looks of Rosie O'Donnell, and the visibility of an 18-wheeler?

i think the ZDX looks pretty good and I think it will start to sell. I wouldnt be surprised if a year from now I see more ZDX's than X6's on the road

I can say that it looks MUCH MUCH MUCH better in person than it does in photos.
I wish I had the coin, I would buy one right away.

Love the interior. Exterior is something I am not repulsed too, and feel it definitely looks better than the TL. Once the launch hype passes by and the incentives start to kick in, this might still sell at a price point similar to TL SHAWD which could give it some volume.

As for this vehicle not being for the masses you are 100% correct. This isn't supposed to be better than a MDX or RDX, it supposed to be different than those 2 vehicles. Target production for the 1st year is between 6500 and 10000 units so even if they sell allof them with ease, don't expect to see them everywhere on the streets.
US pricing with $810 destination
ZDX $46305
ZDX tech $50805
ZDX Advance $56855 (Advance essentially combines the old MDX sport package options with the CMBS and ACC systems from the RL + some goodies not available from acura in the past)

I'm not feeling the 'grill' but I like it. Not unlike Astro, I'd get one if I had the $$$$.....especially as we're really enjoying our 09 MDX.

Interior is nice...but, not a fan of the exterior.

I think I like it unseen, but it's complicated cause I like coupes but I hate SUVs, it's a couped down SUV I guess, with some of the best appointments in an Acura yet.
frustrating that cooled seats and radar cost you big bucks. these are options you can get for a few Ks in a Buick or Caddy.

Considering it's competition: Infiniti's FX, BMW's X6, Volvo's XC60...used...I dunno, it'd be hard choice if you ask me.

i'd take that x6, just cus of the fookin power it has, I mean who is literally gonna try and road race a crossover?
but highway passing would be a joke in the x6
ZDX is just ugly and overpriced to me, but thats just my opinion

Though both appear to have respectable performance for crossovers, I dont think anyone is looking to AutoX either of these vehicles much.
