2007
2dr Coupe turbocharged 510hp 5.5L V12 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD
THe CLs lack rear seat room and entry/exit can be difficult and challenging at best.

What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2011 Acura MDX
2011 Acura MDX Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year Body/Powertrain Comment
2012
4dr SUV 300-horsepower 3.7L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD
The interior prioritizes appearance over actual utility; it's surprisingly cramped for such a large vehicle. For example, my Highlander is roughly the same size externally but seems downright cavernous on the inside in comparison. A rear passenger can fully stretch out in the Toyota. Not so in the Acura.
