I think it is pretty adventuresome of Honda to build a car like this for an unestablished niche market. Yet curiously, they have cold feet over the NSX. It's hard to imagine this being a volume seller with less utility and marginally improved performance over an SUV.

i love that acura is making cars looking like from the future as they should i think its a great design philosophy and language that more people should start looking for they started with the tl and now with this i think its a great way to explore how cars should look nowadays.

I like it as well. Acura's current line up get's a lot of undeserved criticism in my opinion. I'll admit, I didn't care for the new TL at first, but after giving it some time, and having seen one up close many times in person, I think it's a very beautiful car; definitely ahead of it's time. The TSX, another beautifully designed Acura, I've fallen in love with. In fact, I'm looking to trade in my commuter car, an 06' Acura RSX-s for one. I appreciate how Acura/Honda doesn't feel the need to go back and borrow ideas from the past (retro) -- suggesting that the past 40/50 years of automotive design/evolution have all been a mistake.

I think that Acura is, at this time, designing cars that are ahead of their time. In two years or so, the styling of the TL and ZDX will be sooo appreciated, that other automobile manufacturers will be using these designs as their influence. That's what I think. I really like this ZDX and I believe it will sell really well. And I have grown to love the TL. Nice job, Acura (Honda)!!!

The whole 'production cars that look like concept cars' thing is really cool and all... but Acura has got to make itself a global brand first, so that it has enough cachet and funds to develop luxury cars to battle in tier 1 status.

Are African-designed domestic vehicles better than this, in your opinion?

OMG! An attempt to copy the X6 has gone horribly wrong. And I thought the 5S-GT and Panamera were ugly.

The entire "kinda-sporty-coupe-crossover-but-only-with-grandpa's-V6-and-automatic" concept is ENTIRELY LOST on me. What gives? This surely inefficient, hideously ugly frumpmobile is no better than BMW's 5-series GT monstrosity. At least I can rest easy knowing I'll never be caught driving in one. Yuck.

The only part of this car i actually like is the rear, but other than that I have to say I still prefer BMW x6. Still can not believe wasted resources and time on this instead of the new NSX

as if the X6 is an original design... It's funny how short-sighted people are. Most still believe only Eastern brands copy from Western. For me X6 is a copy of the Ssang Yong Actyon. Not as bad, but still stupid concept.

i think you need your eyes checked if you think the the X6 is a copy of Ssang Yong Actyon. lol thanks for the laugh.

The preformed ideas in the average car forum are unbelievable. To be honest, I'm sure BMW wasn't looking at the Actyon and said: 'let's do one ourselves'. My point is just, if the Actyon would have come after the X6, as this Honda is, everybody would be screaming COPY! It's ridiculous.

Does it get 30 miles to the gallon? As a Honda fan I hate the new bird beak...I mean..."power plenum" grill from which all design queues on the new Acura line up seem to flow from. The only car they got right is the TSX. It wears the beak well. The ZDX does fill a slot in the Acura line up but with the absence of a coupe (and the NSX) I think Honda is creating more space between themselves and enthusiast and bridging the gap toward "family oriented" buyers. Is that a bad thing? Time will tell.

REAR looks great!! , SIDE looks weird/unbalance , Front looks weird/unbalance/ugly/ and wth hell?

A copy of what exactly? A BMW X6? I think not. Whoever believes that sort of nonsense is not only misguided, but completely false in their thinking. The niche concept, I grant you, but this car looks nothing like the X6. And for that, all the better. Beautiful work, Honda.
