I'm bias so I vote for my 2017 RX350 :-)
(if only the RX350 with 20"inch wheels has wider rims/tires it would look much much better!)

Because of the perspective. We can see a bit of the sides of the MDX and X5 which at the eye make the look larger.

I might add that it is a very old model of MDX.

Still I prefer the RX!!!

Prefer the RX. None are knock outs but the RX still looks a bit more sporty.

I never realized how small the RX looks next to the X5, that alone almost makes me prefer the X5. But if we are going on styling alone in the pic above, I prefer the RX over the X5.

But it's not really a fair comparison for the MDX since that is the old 2G body style which ran from 2007-2013, below is the current MDX model. Now comparing the the others to this one, I would prefer the rear styling of the current MDX slightly over the RX. But its really a toss up, I think Lexus did a nice job on the rear of the current RX.

I love my RX and up to a month ago I had the X5 as well. The X5 looks much better from those other two. Looks better put together.

Where's the picture of the MDX with no exhaust outlets? They did that for a few years I think.
