Was that a typo? Did you mean an MDX? 
The ZDX's rear seat and headroom is best-in-class for Midgets.
And, with either vehicle, even without factory-incentives, you should (probably) be able to get even more than $1500 off. They are both pricey vehicles with good mark-ups over wholesale....that leaves a fair amount of room for bargaining. The ZDX isn't selling well either....and that means more discounts.

LMFAO...you must hate your brother and your posting while intoxicated (again)
Yeah cause Acura is the leader in quality and luxury
Tell him avoid the Venza unless he can deal with poorly fitting dash boards. I took a ride in a friends 2010 Venza yesterday and the dash in the car was just as misaligned as the 5 that I saw at the Toyota dealership when I looked at the vehicle 2 months ago. With Toyota at way way down on initial quality for 2010 I would go with the TSX or MDX. The Audi is great but is not going to be as reliable as the Acuras

out of the short list, i think the RX and MDX might be most beneficial in the long run. easy to pack in people for trips and getting stuff without having to worry about space. coupes are nice to look at, but moving the seats just to fit some extra people gets to become a real hassle quickly. four door sedans might work well, too, but given the list, the rear room still seems to be in the favor of the SUVs. personally, i like being low to the ground and the four door sedan is nice for me now, but later on, most likely i'll be wanting something that can fit more passengers with ease as well as loading large items. best of luck to your brother!

Jk. Another win for Lexus. He got 2010 rx with pretty much everything except ML sound. Good car. It does what it suppose to do and doesn't pretend anything else.
I will post some pictures if I ever have a chance. Thanks all.

If you need help just show him pics of the TSX Yes If he wants value, tell him get a V-6 Accord then.
I am feeling the A5 here, if he is young, single, why not rock a nice 2 door. I'd then shoot to the C350 sport. Then RX 350 cause its butter baby. The Venza if he wants to score in the backseat. The TSX is he wants people to think he likes cars but he really doesn't. The MDX if he wants a really big Iron Man face SUV.

Oh and big thumbs up for remote touch. Best of both world. Much much better than I-crash and much faster than touch screen. Still kinda annoying to stop to change the address.

We went to Audi 1st and my god was everything so expensive. Test drove A3 and it has sticker of 40k. Didn't even bother with a5 because 2.0t has sticker close to 55. Walked across to Lexus and drove RX and he was pretty much sold. Much better interior, a lot more refined etc... But went to Acura anyway to drove TSX and rude salesman turned us off. We left and stopped by Mercedes to check out C but didn't like it much either. Went back to lexus and wrote a check for the one he drove an hour earlier. Then we were out by another hour. Pretty fast.
