Boom goes the dynamite - a large percentage of Acrua's made between 1996 and 2004 have transmissions that will be shot at 150,000 miles.

How do I know?

1) Everyone knows
2) Just got a $5000 bill thrown my way

It's Honda's "luxury" division but from my valet experience, Acura MDX's in particular are so, so popular but FEEL like pieces of shit.  They feel too much like Honda's.  Acura is not to Honda what Infiniti is to Nissan, or what Lexus is to Toyota.

Kind of expensive to fix but you can get most parts you need at a junkyard out of old cars. Fun cars really good in the cold weather I had an 88 900s. Got so many compliments from chicks it's one of those cars that just has some old school steeze.
