MDX in NY Times front page - Click HERE for Original Thread

In May 3rd New York Times, there is a front page picture with a SS MDX in the backgrourd. The MDX was parked on 87th St and Madison. Is this car anyone registered with acuramdx.org? What are the chances of that!
I parked on Madison at 87th last week. If this was not picture of yesterday's fire of whatever, it might very well be me. I'll go out at lunch and take a look at the cover of NYT.
I may be famous now!!! :) :) :)

One extra reason to get those AcuraMDX.org stickers!!!
May the 5th! I thought you guys were only three hours ahead of us - two days? Cool. (The original post read May 5.)
May 5th??? Hey, SoCal, you are absolutely right. That's what MDX does to you - lets you time-travel!!! I even predicted a fire there a day before - which is tomorrow. :) (god forbid, of course) If I could only predict the market fluctuations in the same manner! :)

So, ajlee, when is it? Today is May 3rd! (although, in Japan, it's already the 4th!)

Anyway, until I prove otherwise, that is supposedly MY CAR in NY Times! I am still famous!! And I will not let some dude from South California rain on my MDX!!! :) I hate the weeping mirrors after a rain!

I re-edit the post. It's THURSDAY MAY 3rd!!!! Time to timewarp back to the 5th. So long!
vip9,
If you are the one, you should demand some appearance fee from both the NY Times and Acura who is getting free advertising in a major metro market. Are you a member of equity or SAG? Letterman and the Tonight show are next!:D:D
For those of you who can't get a copy of the NY Times, the picture is in the website (quite small though):

Hi, Remery. Can't you tell by all my posts? - I am not an actor (hence, no SAG membership), I am a writer. I may go on strike soon, so, if you do not see my posts for a while, don't get alarmed. :)

Letterman, here I come! (drive!) :) What's important, i think the Thud can be considered my "entrance" fanfare!

Anyway, let me go out and take a look at that cover. I'll let you know for sure. If that is indeed my car, an autographed copy will be available for a nominal fee to any interested party.

BTW, so far, I have not seen any MDXs in Manhattan. I think the car is too wide for Lincoln tunnel or the Brooklyn Bridge. :)

vip9 - That had to be you. What are the chances of two silver MDX's being parked at that corner in one week. I'm going to run to Starbucks and buy a copy of the New York Times so I can have this amazing photo autographed. Okay, I really want a Mocha, but I might glance at the New York Times while I'm there. I'll be watching the Late Show for you tonight. Congratulations on the photo - and the time travel.

OK, upon inspecting the picture (in the newspaper it is MUCH larger), I cannot help but come to a painful conclusion that it is NOT my MDX on the cover of New York Times.

They have a caption under the picture that says it happened yesterday. I have no reason to doubt such a reputable source as NY Times. If it were a London tabloid or something... :)

Unless my dealer (who had a possession of my car yesterday yet again!) went all the way to Madison and 87 in an attempt to replicate THE THUD, I am not going to mislead you.

Besides, Letterman people just called. The stint on Late Night is off!!! :(

If any of you still want that autographed copy, it's 50% off now!

I did park there, though, last week! You know what that means - MDXs are multiplying! Soon, there will be as many of them as there are RXs or Exploders. :(

I won't pay one penny above PSRP (Photographer's Suggested Retail Price.) Do you charge a Documentation Fee and Destination Charge?
SoCal: cute!
I am not a crook like many Acura dealers. Even though I realize that I do have a hot commodity on my hands and know well the supply-demand rule, at 50% off it comes to be BELOW PSRP!!! (and that is WITH the autograph). And, not to be outdone by Tim, shipping is included. :) :) :)

vip9,
Why don't you throw in an option for the Brooklyn Bridge to sweeten the deal!:D:D
Sorry, remery, but as I said, I am no crook. I sold Brooklyn Bridge yesterday. If I sell it again that would be almost as bad as those dealers taking our deposits for the cars they KNOW they would never get into their lots.

I like your train of thought though. :)
damn, guys! you got some eyesight! :)
i guess maybe the actual picture in the NY Times looked bigger, then the one on the website?
do you have the 50-in monitors set to 640x480? :)

hey, vip! shoulda've taken the momentum... c'mon think, you WERE parked at 87th this week, right? ;)

personally, i did not like how the brooklyn bridge looks with mdx, so i'd probably opt for either manhattan one - it looks sleeker and matches the GG color better! :p
