| Price of the Mazda Mazda5: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2010 | 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD | Cheap. Very good value. |
| 2010 | 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD | 0% 72 MONTHS HERE IN CANADA |
| 2009 | 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD | The price was/is reasonable. Far lower than the much bigger, much less fun to drive Toyota Sienna or Honda Oddessy. Plus, I got $2,000 cash back direct from Mazda at the end of April, 2009. |
| 2009 | 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD | Can get a full load of options for around the same cost as the base of models with comparable size and quality. |
| 2008 | 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD | Within my budget - the same or much cheaper than other cars with seating for 6 or 7 people. |
| 2008 | 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD | Low sticker, good base features and high resale makes this a cheap ride. |
| 2006 | 4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD | Hard package to beat for 20k well-equipped |
| 2006 | 4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD | Despite extra cargo room and versatility, price is close to that of the smaller Mazda 3. Even the base model is very well optioned. |
| 2006 | 4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD | Excellent value for money - 18k for 6 seater car with climate control, sunroof, auto. |
| 2006 | 4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD | Competitive pricing compared to the similarly sized KIA and perhaps the Matrix/Vibe. |
| Price of the Mazda Mazda5: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2008 | 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD | Not a bad value, but the Chevy HHR was $2000 less and had 15,000 fewer miles. |
What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the the Acura MDX
| Price of the Acura MDX: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 300-horsepower 3.7L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD | Yes, I did until they gave $4K incentive right now |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 300-horsepower 3.7L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD | Good value for a mid-sized luxury SUV |
| Price of the Acura MDX: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 300-horsepower 3.7L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD | A similarly equipped Mazda CX-9 was $4,500 less. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 300-horsepower 3.7L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD | They should make leases more affordable. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 300-horsepower 3.7L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD | Higher than FX |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 300-horsepower 3.7L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD | Given current resale values I think the original pricing was too high. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 300-horsepower 3.7L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD | Expensive |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 253-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD | Can get expensive, but still a good value in the field. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 253-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD | Cost more than a car, but less than most SUVs. |
| 2004 | 4dr SUV 265-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD | Comparatively speaking, the incentive from BMW (less $6000) was what did it for me. Acura could not match it. |
| 2003 | 4dr SUV 260-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD | Price is too high. |

| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2008 | 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Materials did not seem that durable in the used 2008 that we looked at....plastic surfaces were scratched and worn after 40,000 miles. |
| 2007 | 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
The build quality is not the best inside, there are a lot of plastic inside |
| 2006 | 4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Cheap looking and cheap feeling interior materials, particularly the silver-painted trim bits. Centre console is loose and plastics are easily scratched. |

| 2010 | 4dr SUV 300-horsepower 3.7L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
Consistently high quality, throughout. |
| 2009 | 4dr SUV 300-horsepower 3.7L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |

very good. few fit issues, but nothing worth concern |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 300-horsepower 3.7L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
Good fit and finish. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 300-horsepower 3.7L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
the fit both inside and out is first class. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 300-horsepower 3.7L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
Just look at it and you will understand. Not a shread of cheapness. |

Fit and finish. Quality of materials. |
| 2002 | 4dr SUV 240-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
Nothing ever breaks! Wears like iron. Plan to keep this car until 300K or more miles. At least two people that we told about car have purchased MDXs. |
| 2001 | 4dr SUV 240-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
Car is 11 years old and near perfect. Only problem I have is outside temperature gauge is not always accurate. |

| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 300-horsepower 3.7L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
The fit and finish on this vehicle did/do not meet my expectations. I drove a Lexus RX prior, and the all-around build quality, fit and finish of that vehicle was far superior. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 300-horsepower 3.7L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
The interior did not hold up to normal wear and tear. The cargo area was permanently deformed from the weight of a child stroller. The running boards were scratched within the first two weeks of ownership. Interior trim scratched during normal cleaning |
