This is a vehicle that has never really made an impression on me, it was always one of those that just kind of sat in the side of my mind as sometimes it is good sometimes it is not. Nothing outstanding. I might say that if Honda drivers are average, then Acura drivers like to flaunt the fact that they spent $10k more for the same car with leather so may be inclined to drive faster.
Well yesterday afternoon on my way back from work, this one did a pretty aggressive start off of the line and passed on the right so that she could get over before the lane ended.
Now it could be that there were other factors involved, like being late for a soccer game or her house was on fire or something. However, I will definately say that by the time I got this picture she was not doing the 45 mile an hour speed limit that is posted just down the road.
So how do you react to an Acura MDX? Well, for right now I think that the jury is still out, but it has entered my radar and now that there is a category to track, maybe after a couple of months there will be a pattern that is more discernible. Just watch out for the MDX as you play with traffic and let me know if you have run ins of your own.
