Acura fanboys on this thread are free to love whatever cars they love. But Acura isn't, and has never been, "first class".

You told us earlier you liked it.
And what do you mean by drive is "loose?".....that the underpinnings and tires are not set up for canyon-carving? It's first and foremost a Buick....which, in most cases, means comfort and easy-driving first, not sports-car handling. Buick tried making 20" wheels and rubber-band/low-profile tires standard on the otherwise-nice Cascada convertible...and its sales went nowhere. Very few Lacrosses were sold with the 20" wheelsand touring suspension option either...it screwed up the ride too much.

Personally, I just prefer luxury brands/cars over KIAs/Hyundais's offerings. But Palisades/Tellurides are really nice cars.
Of course, we all just want to hear each other' justications. Luxury brands just "feels" better to own and drive lol.

Like, I would rather have a Mercedes GLS, but they are twice as expensive.
The point is these cars offer a ton for the money, and they punch way over their price class.
The issue is down low in the luxury offerings, people buy cars because they have a luxury nameplate that are just not as good a car as they could buy from a mainstream company. Those cars I wouldn’t buy, just having a luxury brand doesn’t make it a luxury car.

I'm going with the luxury brand every time.
Even with a 30k 2022 KIA K5, I'd still go with a used 30k 2010 MDX.
Also true that Luxury needs to be measured with actual numbers and put on paper. But some things are harder to measure like perception.

I'm not sure how old you are, but as you get older your desire to impress other people fades.
