the sale number of the new MDX will be depend on how much a discount buyers can get. msrp for sh-awd with technology pkg (the most popular combo) is almost $49k. for those money, you can save $10k and opt for the RDX with basically the same drivetrain with a less sophisticated awd system, or you can go $5k more for the GX460 base, so many options there to compete unless Acura dealers are willing to slash at least 4K off of msrp.

I Love the Material in the RX, Real wood, instead of MDX fake wood. Also the simplicity of the RX. The truth is that my wife took like 2 days to even know what button does what on the RX. It would take her 2 months for the MDX, and it did on my friend wife, her husband has an 2010 MDX

it looks pretty crappy to me, and old one looked crappier with lots of obviously fake wood.

Not sure how the new mdx loses over 10 cubes of space. You now get fwd standard like the rx. No hybrid. And that exterior

Along with the RX, these things generally lease for dirt cheap- at least here in L.A. I'm sure more than half are leased, which is likely the case with the RX.
