What's a good deal on a MDX?
Target discount: $5,700 off MSRP (8.7%) — before rebates, with no dealer add-ons. Rebates stack on top and apply at any dealer.
The target is the CarWhere Index target discount for the MDX: the discount the strongest quarter of verified buyers reached (5 deals, outliers removed). The dollar figure is 8.7% of the $65,000 average MSRP in those deals — apply 8.7% to your exact trim's MSRP for your number.
How to get that price
1. Negotiate the discount off MSRP
Agree on a dollar discount off the MDX's MSRP first — not a monthly payment and not the out-the-door total, which hide where the money goes.
2. Get an itemized quote
Ask for a written quote that lists MSRP, the dealer discount, each rebate, and every fee on its own line, so the dealer discount is never mixed with manufacturer rebates.
3. Say no to add-ons
Decline pre-installed or dealer add-ons (protection packages, nitrogen, etching, markups). The target on this page assumes none.
4. Apply rebates last
Rebates come from the manufacturer and apply at any dealer. Take them on top of the negotiated discount, not instead of it.
