No chance in hell, the MDX owns any FX SUV and would definately beat out a Q in speed, style and gas economy. That being said I still think Infinity is more 'prestegous'.

He asked about prestige, so speed, style, and gas mileage??? has nothing to do with the topic.

Regardless, you're totally off.
The FX35 will destroy the MDX in performance, and the raised Accord-wagon won't even come close the the FX45.

Acura doesn't even have a SUV to match up against the QX. Heck they don't even have a V8 in their entire lineup.

Heard of the Infiniti M that won just about every car mag comparo?
Or the FX?

If you want to talk about bland (and destroying prestige), look no further than the luxury Civ... I mean RSX.
 
the Q45 trumps all of them.... and that's a MAN's car.

but Acura got the NSX though.... 🙁

tough call, but I would say Infiniti wins.

Dude, who buys SUVs for performance? Have you ever tried fitting 6 people in an FX or how about 5 people with golf clubs? As a people mover the MDX > FX. That said, the FX is a fine vehicle but a bit small. I would say the FX is more comparable to the X5 than the MDX. FX and X5 are more station wagon substitutes compared to the MDX which I think is more of a minivan substitute.
 
I just saw a M35 in person the other day and I must say that it looks really nice. A bit high on the backside but, still a really solid looking car.
 
I love my 04 TL and wouldn?t trade for anything else. But G35's are for posers so I guess Infinity has more prestige.

one problem: the fx (and mdx, for that matter) is a station wagon, not an suv.
 
cop out? they're in the same class! I don't see how you can compare which one has more prestige when they are the same. You might as well replace "prestige" with "characteristics that you like", since that is what you're really asking.

If thats the case, then acura. Only because they have better looking interiors.
 
I think the RSX and the TSX really hurts the "prestige" of Acura. THey're just common cars that should have used the Honda badge. Infiniti doesn't really have those kind of cars.

I don't think Acura has ever really been about prestige.
