Looks like a Mazda cx9 tho

Ugh..

You did the good choice, i was looking to buy the MDX 2021 but they have lower resale value and reliability than Lexus. So i ended buying an used 2020 Lexus GX460 at the same price of the new MDX. Just take a look at the resale now, the used 2021 MDX worth much less than my 2020 GX.

@@JoeGX460 people who goes for luxury does not care about resell value or reliability, just go for what u like, any brand will fail......car are not investment.......

You don't buy lexus for resale value. Here MDX clearly wins. 2 point for 3500 bucks is way too much. Acura 8.5 lexus 5.5

​@@elitechen5918😂😂😂 I have no idea who told you that lie.

​@@elitechen5918the whole point of a Lexus is luxury and reliability. 🙄🙄🙄

I love mdx but can’t afford one for now I’m planning to get one before this year ends. Maybe a 2008 mdx

I used to be and Acura Fan boy coming from a 90 Legend., I have a 2019 RDX A-Spec and I can tell you the fit and finish of the RDX is no where near my old Legend nor the Lexus RX. And let's talk about that fantastic info system that is an just a minute away from causing you to get into and accident.The RX has both a touch screen and track pad. I guess Lexus thought the 5 dollars extra was worth it in a Luxury car at a premium price Who would have known? gee whiz Lexus.

@@midiman5045 I call bullshit?

@Mik 4853 Lexus is ass Rather get Infiniti with the real men classic designs and speed enhancement

@Mik 4853 LOL Lexus is boring as hell. Acura and Infiniti all the way!

@Mik 4853 Awww.... you made because your little Lexsucks lost this comparison?🤣

@@Jawskillaful the Lexus will outlast the mdx though

@@TheRealGamingFoxy But you probably wouldn't want it to.

RX is definitely a winner as long term lovable midsize luxury SUV. The resale value, reliability, low cost of maintenance and the name brand are unparalleled. Lexus Is the elite of luxury automobiles.

I bought the 2020 MDX because it is 12000 USD less than the similarly equipped RXL.

@hon solo despite of rx model didnt get any facelift since 2018 ,so the RX looks outdated if we compare with the rivals such as infiniti qx60, mdx or gv80 from genesis

@hon solo Yes, I know that, Lexus is known for its comfort and has the quietest drive, including its reliability in the premium brand class (luxury brand). However, Lexus is more concerned with the two things above than about engine performance, yes it makes sense why they are famous for machines that have high reliability, because engines that produce higher power will shorten the life of the engine (the engine is more stressed), brand brand Europe, especially from Germany, has a weakness in the reliability section because they include new advanced technology but once damaged it will grab onto other devices as well, that's the reason why their service costs (replacement of their new parts) are more expensive, because they push the engine performance so that it lasts longer. the engine is also shorter

I agree

the RX still sells kid

@@58sing99 I never said it didnt. That doesn't change the fact that it's far behind the competition now.

@@abdel1175 it still sells. What part don't you get

@@58sing99 selling well and being far behind the competition are two different things. The RX sells well and is also well behind the competition. What don’t you get?

You need to drive the new one

Better car where? Lmaoo you are out of touch with reality

@@shawnsavofficial Dude check your Facts, Toyota makes way better cars than Hondas LoL 😆 This is worldwide not just in the US.

mdx is a better car, lexus is a better looking car......

@@elitechen5918 I'd say both cars have their own touch to their design. I think this year's MDX has definitely stepped up to previous generations (I was never a big fan of the van-like design of previous generations), and the RX in general has a more timeless design that doesn't appear old due to their sharper edges. In the end regardless of vehicle class, I'd get an IS because those look really sweet.

Yeh, RX is getting a refresh for 2023: finally eliminating the the TouchPad (yeh), but also eliminating the V6 (boo).

As long as you don’t want ventilated seats that actually work, the MDX is a great pick. I loved mine but traded it for the RX a few months ago. Mine is the fully loaded model and not the F Sport shown here ( half the options )

@@wrzl1675 ah that’s a nice experience to hear yes both are very good vehicles too

Because rx model didnt get new redesign (facelift) since 2018 until now, so just wait for new version

@@wrzl1675 how do you like the rx compared to the mdx?

If you like a 4 cylinder engine pulling an almost 2 and a half ton SUV, you'll love the 2023 RX.

You're welcome! 😁

not really, it took years for Acura to get rid of that ugly beak. agreed, it has recently started taking things seriously, while its cheap sibling honda is still sleeping.

Doesn't matter since no current Acura is recommended by Consumer Reports today. So sad...

Yeah I like Acura better because it looks cool and clean from the front and also it’s very reliable

@@normt430 Here he is again, the owner of a Chinese Buick trolling Acura again. Hey Norm, you need a hobby really badly.

@@normt430 doubt that . ive owned acura and hondas. they are as bullet proof as toyota and lexus.

@@utopian2045 I wouldn't worry about what Consumer Reports says about it. For some reason they've hated Honda/Acura for many years. I'd love to know why...

how is that a better car than the mdx? u just bought because of the brand recognition u know nothing about cars

@@barrydraper RX 350 can accelerate from 0-60mph in 7.7 seconds , the mdx 6.4seconds.. acura has 3 row seat, better materials, u are just paying for an overpriced toyota!!!

@@barrydraper The MDX does NOT have a 4-cyl turbo engine. It is a NA 3.5 litre V 6. You will need to find another criticism.

The rx doesn't have a pano sunroof.

@@tejasmurali9986 Yes, the RX (Luxury Package) has a panoramic sunroof. I truly enjoy mine.

MDX is a pretty reliable car, your friends is a one of case.I like the MDX more

@@brianmwirigi200 just look around and see how many old MDX still left on the road compared to RX300. I’m talking about 2000-2005. When you compared reliability you have to compared car when they are old not just few years old. I have a lot of experience with both Honda and Toyota. I would pick Toyota just because it’s non-interfere engine alone.

what is the exact trim and year you would suggest for used rx350

Might want to get the RX this year. Rumor has it, they're dumping the v6 for a twin turbo 4 cylinder for 2023. Probably means premium fuel!

Glad you enjoyed!

Congrats on your new MDX!

@@CarConfections Thank you. It’s a beauty. We had the 2019 MDX Advance, but the 2022 MDX Advance blows it out of the water.

7 sentences to say you like the look of the Lexus better.

Yep, Lexus is quite boring recently.

While yes Lexus is "outdated" he just compared the two models he had. He docked the rx for options his model didnt have even though the options are still there. I do not agree with that. Lexus and Toyota will always be "outdated" compared to other models but guess what they are one of if not the most reliable cars on the roads today. And for something that costs half of an average house ill take reliability over some quirky tech any day of the week.

@@jeremydeel1514 Acura is owned by Honda....their both really reliable

@@princetonjanke Look again. That's no longer true at all. P.S. "they're".

@@princetonjanke reliability is slowly going down

I’m in the boat. I’m in the market for a new SUV, but I am stuck between the MDX & a RX 450hl. I love everything about the MDX, except for when I look at the exterior and reminds me of an Odyssey van. I have kids but I do not want to settle for a mom-mobile looking car. However, the RX interior looks old-school and can use some modern touches. Most importantly, I am not a huge person 5’2” 140lbs, but I have a hard time getting in and out of the RX. I’m so torn.

For the 2022 MDX they've made it 2 inches longer than the previous model, which I can barely walk around in my garage. If you plan to park in a garage that's something to consider. I've had a MDX 2.5 years and still have trouble parking it. 2022 mdx does not have a touch screen while the rx does. We plan to turn in our mdx after the lease is up and buy a 2020 rx.

Get a test ride. I was on the market last year shopping for Lexus RX and Acura RDX. Both great vehicles. The professionalism from each and every Lexus dealerships made such a big difference to me that I never second guessed going with a Lexus.

People that are seeking luxury cars don't care that much about reliability when they can afford the repairs. That's why cars like BMW, Audi, and Mercedes with poor reliability can out sell Lexus in many markets

Glad you enjoyed the video!

Acura was just updated

If you bought the new RX and they updated it every 3 years with a new design, would you think that’s a good idea? RX is quality

They did! It’s either you love it or hate it And i am warning naveenthemachine to NOT respond to my comment

At $60K for a 450Lh I'd look a Chevy Tahoe 3.0T diesel that could see 35 mpg at highway cruise.

So do I. Only Alex on Auto do I have to go 1.5x as there is just too much content!

What did you end up buying?

@@tiberius_akh Hey Andrew - Haven't yet. I'm in a very fortunate position where I have little bit of time before I will have to get a car. Anyways, I have yet to have a 22 MDX Type-S made available for a close up look and drive. Dealer in my area has stated the Type-S isn't expected at dealers until the first quarter of 2022. I want to drive one before I make a final decision, as the extra power in the Type-S is of strong interest to me. It's a tug of war for me at times, as in I really want above average reliability, good in snow, but also performance too. Moreover, all this waiting has allowed closer looks at the competition for me. For example, the Genesis GV-80 is beautiful, but with less pedigree than Acura and Lexus, hard sell for me as I'm much less of a risk taker than when I was younger lol. Similarly, the BMW X5 X Drive 40i has made me quite fond of their product. But as I keep my vehicles for about ten years, that could get inconvenient and quite costly (for me anyways) as out of warranty BMW's can be more expensive than their Japanese competitors according to my research. What could complicate things, is there is talk Lexus is releasing new models soon, including a new design for the RX. I'm at my ten years for my 2011 Highlander which has been a very satisfying and reliable experience. I don't think I'm brand loyal per say, but I'm quite certain I won't deviate from a Honda or Toyota product, simply for peace of mind. I'll wait and drive the Type - S, if I feel the drive is worth the extra dough I won't need more than a brief cup of coffee to think it over. How about you?

@@andyp7787 Thanks for your reply. Got quotes for '22 MDX and RX350L. Acura dealers all wanted markup while Lexus dealers are willing to sell at MSRP. Unsure if waiting will help or situation will get worse

@@tiberius_akh That sounds about right with my experiences. I didn't get any mark up over list when I got quotes, but with the state of things, I guess that's how some dealers wanna play it. I went to a Bimmer dealer today with a friend. These are very nice cars, in almost all respects an upgrade over their Japanese counterparts. However, even the sales manager told me it's best to enjoy a BMW while still under warranty. Leasing is recommended, unless of course you have very deep pockets. I think that alone leaves me out for a BMW as my conservative penchant for reasonable reliability, at a reasonable cost long term (ten years) is too high a priority. Glad I looked and I can see why they fill a significant part of automobile sales overall, as they are pretty stunning. For me, it reinforces the idea of staying with a Honda/Toyota product and staying within my own realistic comfort zone. I hope that Type-S is released soon.

@@tiberius_akh You should call around all the other dealership and ask if they charge mark up, I found one dealership that does not charge markup on theirs in the lot as well as pre-order. There's not a lot of cars out there, shortage, hence you have to put a deposit ($500 only) to get first dives in the incoming inventory and there's not a lot of incoming. I was lucky to find a dealership that negotiated with me, if I sell them my Lexus that I get two of the cars my family is buying with no markup. We are getting MDX and RDX aspec advance! I owed a CL and an MDX in the past both reliable except for transmission but since it was under warranty, it just got replaced at 99k miles. Can't wait to drive the new luxury all improved 2022 RDX and MDX!

Me too….

Thanks!

Yeah I bought my 2021 Rx 350 $66k after taxes really don’t understand his priced

Your second sentence indicates your lack of objectivity and intellectual honesty.

@@trumpisastump9382 everyone has opinions don’t force them

It's a 5 years old model, I'm pretty sure those will be available on the next redesign model.

@@hybridstiger lexus could have easily give little referesh, it's not hard at all. But still nothing

Let’s be honest, most people buy RX just for reliability, it loses on every other aspects.

I was shocked at the seat adjustment as well

@@hybridstiger that's not a good excuse when other companies had that years prior to this generation

yep, ive never looked at acura as a luxury brand. ive always seen them as a brand better than mainstream brands but worse than brands such as lexus.

It is a FAIR comparison as it represents what vehicles you can currently purchase from the two Brands. Should they have used a time machine and compared the MDX to a 2025 Lexus???

Both MDX & RX have timing BELTS. I've looked because I dont want to deal with a belt, but both have it. Would have been a deal breaker for me though. VCM is sort of a deal breaker for me on the Acura, RX does not have anything similar, look it up. VCM is a fuel management for the Acura motor.

LEXUS WOULD BE...

And Lexus is the same as Toyota. Glass houses!

Yep exactly. MDX didn’t sell shit worth of units.

Exactly. The Lexus looks more aggressive, it’s more dependable, and rides better, and will last longer. The comments are reflective of the video’s point scale. The average American is really “average”; we struggle with facts and are easily lead.

Mdx hardly been out for a year, also production been limited due to pandemic. Can't really compare to the RX current generation that has been on the road since 2015

S.S. Chaunvann: If popularity is your primary consideration in a vehicle, you should really be driving a Ford F-150.
