A couple of years ago, while I was driving the Acura ZDX for a review http://www.autoblog.com/2010/04/29/2010-acura-zdx-review/ a product development executive from another automaker that I was talking to labeled the odd crossover-coupe as "Sales-Proof"
Based on the January sales figures released yesterday it appears he was right as a mere 54 customers drove off Acura lots with one. Although I liked the shape of the ZDX and some aspects of driving it, the overall packaging just never made any sense.
Despite the lackluster sales of both the ZDX and BMW X6, Audi and Mercedes-Benz both seem to be intent on creating similar vehicles of their own. Is there something that they know that customers don't?

I've always liked these kinds of vehicles from a "wow, that's weird and I LIKE WEIRD" perspective. Overall, they don't really make much sense.
They know that Subarus are selling like hot cakes and want a piece of the pie.
I am a huge Acura fan (RSX S owner) but to me, this looks like the Rally Fighter, and I would much rather have that then this. It also doesn't go with the Acura Luxury model that killed the RSX, also with the MDX why would you go with this?
