Ok, so the MDX competes with the Lexus RX? If so, I don't see it any better than the Lexus, let alone the BMW X5.
But people, please stop calling the overpriced box a Honda, it's a prestigous box called an Acu, Acur...oh forget it, it's a Honda!

Every picture looks like the body is too short, you can see everything hanging on to the bottom of the vehicle, they should of brought the sides, rear, and front down further
