I liked the RX350 over the MDX because I thought the fit and finish was superior on the Lexus, and I hated the cockpit design of the MDX. I also am not fond of the Acura styling - the MDX looks like a pill bug to me, ready to roll up its shell and careen down the road.

my parents told me yesterday that the sport package does not include new shocks...just new springs..

for $2050 CAD...that's a HUGE rip off...

ya eh...well my parents got the info from our dealer...dunno who to believe anymore but then again i never believe dealers since they give you the wrong information a lot of times

in any case, fx35 was a much better choice at a much better price fully loaded

thanks all!
