In terms of
1) Driving experience
2) Durability
3) Cost of maintenance
4) Naija factor
5) Second value(In case I want to re sell in future)
6)Other
Which one should one go far?. The budget can buy any of the 3 (direct tokunbo). Please I'll appreciate suggestions with reasons and facts.

All of the above are value for money cars,but zdx production ceased 2013,meaning no more in production,so mdx and Avalon are both good choice, I will pick mdx based on *personal choice* I have Camry 2013 which I travelled with to Lagos and I wasn’t comfortable with the paper weight feeling and eco nonsense tech,tho in some trims u can switch it off but mine is LE. Avalon is in another league compare to Camry n sorry for derailing .

I once owned a Camry, I can relate to the paper weight flying especially when I'm cruising 100 to 120. I always feel there's going to a lift off. lol

Just did a surface research and I found that Honda has discontinued the production of Crosstour as well. I wouldn't want to buy ZDX if it would be difficult to source it's replaceable parts and do you think it will be hard to sell in next 2 to 3 years?

Parts of the MDX and ZDX are very expensive especially the Legs,which we all know the condition of the Roads generally In Nigeria.pls go for the Avalon instead.

KonPutin:
Crosstour was still produced till 2016.....basically it’s just a performance edition of evil spirit ...just my own opinion* believe me I have never had *leg issue with any of my Honda’s or Acura like someone mentioned * honda isn’t for I never chop or till tomorrow attitude pple likewise any other brand, if u can stake such amount on any vehicle then u should have money to maintain, or choice narrows down to some questions ....like where do u go frequently *meaning if such place has bad road. Do you travel often inter- state? U could be caught up in bad situations whereby SUV will fight it out, example is falling of trucks and long vehicles on traveling routes, in such unexpected conditions u have to follow the trend of going through alternative rough road,will Avalon fight that out,but if u have a second car then it’s of no use to consider all of those things. If u follow nija unreasonable complaints, u will end up getting more confused. As long as the car u think about don’t have gear issues or mech recall, then all others are nothing but maintenance culture solved
