Hey I notice YOUR NEIGHBOR accross the street also have an MDX??? Is that correct?
From a VERY observant observer!
Yhlin,
I also have a white X, about 2 months old now. Have been thinking about using Zaino to wax. Does it really make a noticeable difference? White usually does not shine like dark colors or metallic colors. I got some Zymol from Costco and am thinking about using it to wax.
BTW, where did you get your Zaino? Is there a local distributor?

Fireblade6: You really got sharp eyes. I thought no one will
notice the "other" X Yeap, they have a '01 SS Touring.
Unfortunately they don't wash/wax their car as often as I do
hence I tried my best to hide it
MARFONG: Zaino doesn't show a lot of difference on TW. But
I'll still go for it for couple of reasons.
1. "zainoed" surface feel really good even my wife make fun
of me that I don't touch her that way
2. It's much easier to clean the car, especially on the tough
stain, tar, and bug juice.
3. It lasts longer than the other products I had used before.
I don't claim that I used lots of different products .. just my
experience.
BYW, I joined the zaino group buy about one or two months
ago. I think may be there's another one coming up real soon.

yhlin,
Just noticed that you got your X within 2 months of your order date. How did you get so lucky? I ordered mine in 7/'01 and got it delivered on 2/22/02 from Hopkin's Acura in Redwood City. Did you have to go out of the area, or pay above MSRP, or have forced accessories?
My X looks just like yours. Except, I put on Manik side steps instead of the factory side steps. And I don't have the rear air deflector.
Have you thought about tinting the front side windows? Many fellow MDX'ers have done it. The only other accessory I'm thinking of adding is the moonroof visor....because it is very noisy when the moonroof is open.

We got it from Sunnyvale Acura and paid MSRP plus the
forced/overpriced "protection package" ($490 w/ cargo
tray, wheel lock, mud guard), which is probably $230
higher than if we got these from Tim.
As for moonroof visor, I don't think we open up the moonroof
a lot so the noise is not brothering us ...
I never thought about tinting and front side window, though.
That sounds like a good idea What'll be the cost then?

Go for the max, it wont be that dark and still be legal.
I was over at Valley Fair and talked to a rep. there in one of those kiosks. Sounded like a great deal to me. He had samples, the max for the front sides is not very dark, believe me. But it definitely helps.
Let me know how it turns out!

Dirty pictures
GalleryDirty pictures of your X, that is. We have plenty of pictures of our pristine vehicles on this forum. How about some pictures of them when they are not at their best? Here's one from last weekend. The slushy roads take a toll on the white!- 32
