I bought a 2025 Acura MDX Advance A-Spec Urban Grey, my buying experience

[@qwerty135797]

Thanks for the candid info! We're in the market for the exact same vehicle. Good to know 10% is totally do able.

[@bfleming6665]

Great video Scott. I live nearby and will have to keep this in mind. Loyal Acura owner.

[@victorhong16]

thank you for the kind words 🙏 got me something to show off to the family over the holiday

[@ScottsReviews]

Thanks again for your help. I guess I should’ve bought some type of tire warranty already had to replace the tire. And the windshield just cracked. 😢😢

[@victorhong16]

@ScottsReviews uh oh, good thing to get rid of all the bad luck before the new year. if you still want to add the tire and wheel you know where to find me :P

[@jobblanco2384]

Wow! I just met Tony. I went to go look at that White MDX Type S on Monday. I'm glad I ran into this good video. Thanks for sharing your experience.

[@its_sych4448]

We bought a 2024 MDX tech this September because with 2025's out, 2024's would have discounts. We negotiated around 3000 off MSRP and on top of that we also had a 2014 MDX Base package with 176,000 miles on it, it was worth like 4000-5000 max we got 8600 on that car and an OTD price of 49,000

Merry Christmas! Car looks great I like the color. I grew up in the DMV, good to see some familiar sights. Cheers!

[@ScottsReviews]

Happy holidays!

[@comeconcon569]

Acura has improved tremendously over the last decade. I hope Honda keeps up the good work.

[@dannycunningham4132]

Glad the dealership honored the CarMax quote. Johnson Lexus of Durham promised me they would honor Carmax and then backed out!!

[@ScottsReviews]

@@dannycunningham4132 some dealerships have direct agreements with Carmax where they were bringing in any qualified quote and Car and Carmax will purchase the car from the quote and give the dealer an extra $500. This dealership did not have that, but they still honored the quote.

[@mikehealy5601]

Congrats to A on the new car!! I dig the color a lot. Merry Christmas and a happy new year give us a call when you're traveling pass Atlanta next time on your way to Alabama!

[@ScottsReviews]

Just got to bama. Via 81.

[@speedisf]

Congrats i own a 2014 acura mdx sence brand new 11 years already great.car 73,000 miles on it now and still runs like.new.oils change every 4,000 miles

[@Matt-uh6kr]

Found your car for sale at the dealership! Nice review on everything.

[@fishycomics]

Smart move B4 tarrifs hit hard. congrats we have a friend that loves his older one many years of LUCK!

[@Matt-uh6kr]

Most Acuras and Hondas won’t see Tariffs thank goodness.

[@FirstHillSeattle]

@@Matt-uh6krActually they will because even though assembled in the US, they have parts that come from Japan (approximately 30%).

[@rabayl01]

Acura is actually an American brand. They do not sell Acura in Japan. All Acura models are made in the USA

[@ronaldobennett671]

Trust me I have learn some valuable tactics for your car buying and trading transactions. Keep giving us videos.

[@kyrkrk]

Great video! I found it very useful since I'm planning to buy an Acura in the nearest future (most likely RDX model). Also this is going to be my very first car buying experience (from a dealer). Do you think it is possible to get a similar up to 10% off MSRP for a used Acura, or it is mostly applicable to brand-new vehicles?

[@bronxkid2348]

Great video my guy! I live in Bowie and work on Meade, thinking about an MDX as my next one maybe we can link up I can get some more feedback and advice from you.

[@ArtieMcYardie]

I was laughing so hard when you brought up the Jeep experience about touching the salesman‘s hand and asking him if he’s mad I quite literally got kicked out of Nissan back in 2013 when I was buying a stupid altima they were trying to mark it up by 6K over the MSRP and I couldn’t stop laughing And I went through four salesmen and with each different person they were getting crankier and crankier to the point that myself and my cousin got kicked out of the dealership. Over the years got promoted. Got better jobs now driving an Acura RDX and a Lexus RX and could not be happier. I hope you enjoy the shit out of your MDX.

[@ScottsReviews]

@@ArtieMcYardie yeah there’s way more to that JEEP story with the finance guy. I had my daughter with me who was 13 so I had to behave myself in front of her, but I should’ve walked out, especially when he got angry with me that I was reading the contract closely and he wanted me to hurry up because he had people outside waiting. You play these things back in your head and you wish you did this and you wish you did that but I need to realize at the time it took over a week to get that deal and I was already there 3 to 4 hours at the dealership. It’s even worse now that Stellantis is having so much trouble that are cutting their jeeps by 35% off. I heard that today.

[@SumukhaC]

Would you be uploading a review of this new car? It looks great! I’m looking to buy it as well. Would love to see a review from regular folk such as yourself, instead of professional car review guys.

[@kurpal8904]

Do u think it’s a big difference vs the Type S?

[@shakes268]

I'm in Nashville and I've been looking at used MDXs. Too bad these guys are so far away from me I would give them a visit.

[@jeromerichards1337]

I’m literally in the market for a full size suv can you do a video on this vehicle please especially the technology and third row seating. And how much is insurance?

[@ScottsReviews]

@@jeromerichards1337 visiting family but will get to it. My insurance did not increase much from my 14 MDX which surprised me.

[@SkyCandyDigitalCinema]

They get between $500 and $1200 dollars for getting someone to do financing - the bank pays them that commission.

[@phatista]

Criswell Annapolis sucks! Same with Laurel. They were quoting me $5,000 less on TLX tech pack than another dealer had for a new '20 RLX Sport Hybrid for $47k. Chevy Chase Acura. They have a 5 floor indoor showroom. All vehicles are kept in covered lots. Their waiting room is executive level with large glassed in offices and workspaces. I'm telling ya' Chevy Chase or Radley in VA.

[@ScottsReviews]

@@phatista my first MDX was from Chevy Chase Bethesda, but I live closer to the Laurel location.

[@Adam-ts1il]

I got 6k off a type s bought on 12/23/24 I have a tlx type s and wanted to stay to type s only

[@halfglassfull]

even if you pay off the finance after the first payment your first payment is mostly interest that is how the dealer makes back some of the discount.

[@cynthiamedina3454]

Great vidd

[@kurtr1870]

Looks like a 2024 model. It still has the trackpad. 2025 model did away with the trackpad.

[@ScottsReviews]

@@kurtr1870 It does not have the trackpad that’s the charging station

[@mijmic]

It's a 2025. If you pay closer attention, you'll see that the infotainment display is closer (moved forward by approx. 3") to the dash than the '24's, which had the track pad. Additionally, the vehicle's front end fascia/bumper, etc. clearly is the refreshed '25 design.

[@Yette]

10 percent off without visiting? Hard to believe

[@EspenJohan]

Nice car, so electric cars isn't a thing in US. In Norway electric cars are more or less the only thing you can buy. EV is 90 % of all sale.

[@blakethomas8897]

He's handsome

[@ArtieMcYardie]

Should have got the Lexus they give you full breakfast with your service.

[@ScottsReviews]

@@ArtieMcYardie are you serious Clark?

[@ArtieMcYardie]

@ yeah breakfast and lunch baby every day!! just remember for your next car purchase. But still that MDX is pretty sick. I like it too.

[@v12kingV10]

Acura copying audi colors again. Should have gotten a honda odyssey. Going to be recalled as it’s a ohio made product

[@v12kingV10]

@ not anymore. Acura quality is terrible and recalls like crazy. Bad paint, bad transmissions, bad differentials. etc

[@FirstHillSeattle]

@@v12kingV10How many have you owned? On my fourth Acura, no issues whatsoever. Much better resale value than European cars also.

[@v12kingV10]

@ why would anyone want to own a made in ohio acura?

[@Masterguy635]

literally every brand is copying the flat grey lmao

[@mijmic]

@@v12kingV10 I imagine the same reason why folks owning X5' BMW's and the like, which are made in Greenville, SC do...both made in the USA! 😊
