It's like looking in a mirror....identical to mine in every way. Bars, SBP, Toronto, cottage, and all. Good taste -)
Question...do you call it, green, or grey?

| the color is Gray as per my reg papers. The drive was great and was able to get over 500 kms . on a full tank premium. I also just change to K & N filters and they do make a difference in fuel economy and power. Would recommend them to anyone . |

Registration says gray, because dealer calls it gray to sell it, but it's actually Sage Brush Pearl, which is green. Blew me away...but gray didn't exist for this model in canada, or U.S. from what I suspect. A whole thread dedicated to our colour here...I still call it gray too, but the wife calls it green. ...or did you know all this already...

| Never new that it wasn't gray thought it was also more charcoal gray however never did figure out why was my previous 2000 Odyssey called Sage Green when it was clearly gray color. any way where's this color thread again? I know I have seen photos of your MDX in one of the threads and would like to see it again if possible. I just love this color I have passed up a couple of better deals on gold and silver 04 MDX and waited till I can get one in this color. I also want to know which dealership you are using for service as I am not happy with my current dealership I'm more in the east end. thanks and regards, Rcik |

Hey Matricks,
I really like the way these look on your MDX! :)
Could your provide the specific brand? I have been wanting nerf bars but can't yet swallow the $450 price tag from the OEM version. I searched for "truck fever" on ebay but did not find much.
Thanks and looks good ! :2: :6: |

| search ebay for Nerf Bars and should give you Truck fever site these are available for 01 to 06 MDX and I paid US$119.50 plus US65.00 for shipping and handling to CANADA should be cheaper for US shipping also installation is a do it yourself job as everything fits on pre drilled holes under the x. regards and good luck on hunt.

lol...I passed up a Silver one too....Sage Brush Pearl is a real chameleon of colors dependant on the sun that day. Type SBP in the search field, and you'll see the dedicated thread.
I'm in Thornhill, so I'm currently servicing my X at North Toronto Acura on Yonge Street. It's been a great experience in comparison to North York Chrysler, or even our local Honda dealership (the worst experience possible). Loaner cars, good coffee, great service. Hasn't been expensive either.
If I see you in cottage country, I'll flash the high beams. I just installed some Xenon HID's and should post the mod...got to clean it up first.
Cheers mate!

Canadian model color is SLATE GRAY PEARL
while US model color is SAGE BRUSH PEARL so technically we should conform with Canadian color description since it is actually more gray than green. lol regards, Rick |

Hey, I'm glad to hear that. My dealer told me gray didn't exist, and sold me sage pearl touch-up paint. I cried when it matched perfectly...I hate green cars. That said, I dig our color.

Hmm, and I thought the gray we have in Canada was an exclusive and USA did not get it. Who cares, I love the Slate Gray. |
