2001 Acura Mdx Wrecked Pass. Side Clear (not Rebuilt/salvage) Title Good Parts on 2040-cars
Elizabethton, Tennessee, United States
2001 Acura MDX , clear (last accident never reported) "clean" title. Not salvage, rebuilt or rebuildable.
Passenger side glanced down utility pole, no visible frame damage. Rt Front axle and wheel broken. You COULD buy an axle for $60.00, bring a spare tire, battery, fusible link, and gallon of gasoline and drive it up onto your trailer, otherwise it will need to be hauled on a rollback, or you'll something that will bring the broken axle up onto your trailer. Transmission was working fine at time of collision. I have no doubts that it works, but because the vehicle won't drive in its current condition, I won't stick my neck out on that one, but it was working at time of accident (Otherwise it wouldn't be wrecked, correct? just sitting there with a bad tranny); I had just returned to TN from Cincinnati shortly before. Local tire-kicker hooked battery up backwards week of 01/25/14, promptly removed horn relay (the WARNING that he had hooked it up wrong), and proceeded to burn fusible link out, but I guarantee engine to run, it was running right before the "expert" (also read: idiot) came along. Trip computer, instrument panel, CD player, all worked 100% before the link was blown, I'll assume all is still a-ok. Running boards included Exhaust removed. Radiator okay AC system okay Rear Air Okay Hood no damage, just cracked lid for photos. Photos detail interior and exterior condition. Dash, headliner, seats. Airbags deployed. Where this truck has been parked over a year facing due south, the only part of the interior I would consider non-usable would be the wood-grain trim between the gear-shifter and the console, it has "rippled" from sun exposure. Shocks and struts replaced 30K ago. Vehicle always meticulously maintained until time of accident. Other than obvious rust where paint is missing any discoloration you see on the metal is just dirt and pollen...the vehicle is beside a tree farm in the Cherokee National Forest; lots and lots of pollen! At opening bid of $1000 (roughly the cost of the engine, used), this is one heck of an opportunity for a salvage or body shop to make a tidy profit, and with the recent storms from TX to New England, the parts demand should definitely be there. IMPORTANT: SHIPPING is 100% the buyer's burden; vehicle is in 37643, TN. I would prefer to receive cash in person opposed to Paypal, but winning bidder may deposit $500 at time of auction's close if they wish. All sales final ; ask any questions before you bid, and at the risk of appearing harsh - PLEASE do not waste your time and mine by requesting and making offers for parts. Should I determine to part the vehicle out myself, I will post the parts on eBay, but please respect that it's MY determination to make. |

2015 Acura TLX priced from $30,995*
Thu, 03 Jul 2014Following a delay this spring, Acura is now ready to launch the 2015 TLX sedan this August, with pricing now confirmed to start at $30,995, *not including $895 for destination. This base MSRP is just $360 more than that of the outgoing TSX sedan; the TLX replaces both the TSX and TL in Acura's 2015 model year lineup.
That's a pretty fair deal considering that introductory price gets buyers a front-wheel drive TLX with a 2.4-liter inline four-cylinder engine with 206 horsepower,mated to a new eight-speed dual-clutch transmission, and featuring the automaker's Precision All-Wheel Steer (P-AWS) system. Adding a Technology Package ups the MSRP to $35,025.
Of course, the TLX is also available with a 290-horsepower, 3.5-liter V6 mated to Acura's new nine-speed automatic transmission. The TLX V6 P-AWS starts at $25,220 and climbs to $39,250 with the Technology Package. The bottom line on the range-topping Advance model is $42,500. Acura's Super-Handling All-Wheel Drive is available with the 3.5-liter engine, too - the SH-AWD Technology model starts at $41,450, while the SH-AWD Advance commands $44,700.
2014 Acura RLX gets trick hybrid all-wheel drive system for LA
Tue, 19 Nov 2013Acura has endured a year of mixed reviews and middling sales for its new RLX flagship. Meanwhile, the Japanese automaker has been readying what may be the very best version of the car for its debut. Now the wait is almost over, as Acura will show its 2014 RLX Sport Hybrid SH-AWD at this year's LA Auto Show.
When it comes to dealerships in the spring of 2014, the RLX Hybrid will be the most powerful production car Acura has ever sold. The combination of a 3.5-liter V6 and three electric motors - a 35-kilowatt motor pushing torque to the front wheels and two 27-kW units feeding the rears - creates a total system output of 377 horsepower.
Those rear-end electric motors do more than just add power, they also drive the rear wheels without a traditional rear drive shaft and differential. This newest iteration of the Super Handling-All Wheel Drive calls upon the two rear motors to both drive and brake the rear wheels, vectoring torque in cornering situations for additional grip. All three electric motors make use of regenerative braking to feed electricity back into the system's 260-volt lithium-ion battery pack.
2014 Acura MDX shows up exactly as expected
Wed, 27 Mar 2013Acura (and parent company Honda, for that matter) doesn't always leave a lot to be left to the imagination when they unveil prototypes at auto shows. Case in point: Take a gander at the Acura MDX Prototype that debuted at the Detroit Auto Show this past January, and then look at the production-spec 2014 MDX pictured above. See what we mean?
Design-wise, there frankly isn't a whole lot to get excited about with this MDX. Sure, a lot of the chiseled, sharp lines from the previous-generation model have been smoothed out in favor of something that will likely have more mass-market appeal, but to our eyes, the MDX has simply lost a lot of its visual flair in the process. To quote Autoblog senior editor Seyth Miersma, this new one just looks like the old one after melting by 10 percent. The end result is something that more closely resembles the company's smaller RDX crossover than anything else, with other subtle design elements mimicking what we've seen on the ILX and RLX sedans. It's all fine, but again, not exciting. The good news, however, is that thanks to the use of new lightweight materials, the 2014 MDX is 275 pounds lighter than the outgoing model.
Updates to what's underneath the MDX's new skin are hardly surprising, but still welcome. Power comes from a direct-injected 3.5-liter V6 making 290 horsepower and 267 pound-feet of torque, mated to a six-speed automatic transmission with both front-wheel drive and Acura's Super-Handling All-Wheel Drive on offer. Acura estimates that front-drive models will achieve 20/28/23 miles per gallon (city/highway/combined), and says that adding the SH-AWD drops those numbers to 18/27/21. Acura will offer a new Integrated Dynamic System that allows the driver to choose between normal, sport and comfort settings, and the new MDX will ride on a choice of either 18- or 19-inch alloy wheels.
