This is my third Acura. I am happy with the quality and technology mostly. but, I think that they are a bit overpriced. They can not compete with BMW in style, or reputation, but charge almost the same for their vehicles. see full Acura MDX review |

Bought MDX for its 4 wheel drive, especially the much touted super handling system. MDX provides good value for all the options which came with the vehicle. Acura name provides high end brand name. see full Acura MDX review |

Subaru has a pretty good reputation and image...although it is a bit quircky as viewed by some. Reputation (a good one) usually has a major affect on resale value. see full Subaru Legacy review |

I flagged brand reputation & image as a dislike too because I see so many people asking questions like ‘LGT or G35 or 3 series?.’ These are great cars, but you don’t want to buy one if you want impress people. This is a plus or minus depending on who you see full Subaru Legacy review |
