Maybe this month's article should be called "How much would you pay me to drive this".

Yeah...this thing is definitely not 'appreciation'.  I wonder if Pritchard was writing this with a straight face...?

For US$17,000 in a 88,000 mile ZDX today, you can get a 2018 Regal Sportback 2.0T FWD for US$18.000.   Only 41 ZDax's for sale on cars dot com but worth the premium over a Regal Sportback or a Stinger 2.0T today.

I thought these held their value well.

In my Area, there are two 2010s going for almost 20k.

I think that's actually expensive for a 9 year old CUV.

I distinctly remember seeing this thing for the first time at the Edmonton Motor Show. A lot of visual interest, and so people were queued up to get into it and check it out. I watched as person after person whacked their heads as they tried to get into the back seat. It almost got comical.

A reliable, less douchey X6?

Kudos for Acura trying to be different back then.

I was looking at them before getting the RX, but they were pricey and didn't want to deal with a timing belt

I like it more than the Honda Crosstour thingy.  At least the Acura has some style.

I too think it's better looking that the Crosstour, and used they aren't a great deal, but not that bad that I wouldn't buy one if I wanted one.

The local dealer had big "$13k off" signs in their windshields the last time I saw any on the lot (2012 IIRC).

Ugly as an axe wound.
