As your local NJ Acura dealership, Park Avenue Acura is ready to put you behind the wheel of the car of your dreams. An Acura is a perfect new car. It is the picture of luxury packed into a functional and affordable skin. Test-drive an Acura today!

The Acura MDX is nothing short of a dynamo of comfort, convenience and functionality. It comes with remote power door locks, power heated mirrors and power windows with one-touch capability. Transmission, cruise and audio controls are all on the steering wheel in the MDX. That puts all of the power, transmission cruise and audio controls at the tip of your finger. The audio system in the MDX is super high quality as well. 7 total speakers crank out 253 watts of power via an AM/FM/CD stereo with satellite radio capability and MP3 audio input. You NJ Acura fans will be able to set the cruise control and cruise down the highway to whatever soundtrack fits your mood.

Taking that cruise down the highway won’t break the bank either. The MDX gets an EPA estimated 16 miles per gallon city and 21 miles per gallon highway. With an 18 gallon tank, the MDX can go for over 400 miles without stopping at a gas station. With the affordable luxury of Acura and the fuel efficiency of the MDX, NJ Acura fans will be left with a lot of extra money in their pockets.

NJ Acura Fans Can Ride in Style and Safety

The MDX leads the front on comfort and luxury but that doesn’t mean it isn’t a safe choice for NJ Acura Fans. As with all Acura’s, the MDX is designed with consumer safety in mind. It comes standard with 4 wheel ABS, emergency braking assist, electronic brakeforce distribution, stability control, traction control and tire pressure monitoring. All of these features work together with the driver to actively prevent a collision.

It’s impossible to prevent every collision, though. That’s why the MDX is equipped with a fall-net of sorts. Front and rear head airbags, dual front side-mounted airbags and a driver head restraint whiplash protection system will lend a protective hand to passengers in the MDX in case of an accident.

Head to Park Avenue Acura today to test drive one of these fantastic 2010 MDX models. Park Avenue Acura is located at 171 Route 17 in Rochelle Park, NJ. The dealership is also available online at http://www.acura-nj.com or by phone at 888-711-6535.

When selling a car it is important to prepare the car in the proper manner before showing it to potential used car buyers. NJ Acura used car sellers should check out these tips from Park Avenue Acura before listing their vehicle in the newspaper or on the internet.

The most obvious first step is to clean out the car! Think of it this way- would you buy somebody else’s used car if it had fast food wrappers in the back seat and stains on the front carpets? I don’t think so. This cleaning shouldn’t be a quick once over either, it should be a full detail. The interior of the car should be vacuumed, shampooed and shined up with special car cleaning supplies (you can get these at your local auto supplies shop). Make sure you get the windshields their shiniest and the carpets and carpet covers looking like new. Don’t neglect all the little nooks and crannies. Who knows, you may even find some forgotten possessions.

The detailed cleaning shouldn’t stop at the interior. You should take care of the exterior of the car as well. NJ Acura used cars shoppers have a lot of other options to choose from; a dirty car isn’t very appealing. Wash up every inch of the car including the tires, rims and windshields. If you want to go the extra mile you can even shine the tires and wax the car. Again, car cleaners and wax should all be available at your local auto supplies shop.

If your car is spotless on the inside and shiny on the outside it will look a lot more pleasing to a potential NJ Acura used car shopper. If you don’t have the time or the know-how to do a fully detailed cleaning on your own, you can have one done for you. Many automotive shops and car washes can do the job in a short amount of time for a good price.

NJ Acura Used Cars Should Come With Keys and Paperwork

Being spotless and shined up will definitely help your car look good for a sale but you should also prepare a few other important things for any potential NJ Acura used car buyer. You want to show someone interested in your car that it was well cared for and maintained. So, first off, you should present any potential buyers with the original keys. Secondly, you should have maintenance records from your time with the car. Having these two things ready will show that you cared enough for the car to keep it in proper shape with routine maintenance and repairs and are not trying to hide anything. Having a vehicle history report on hand would help as well. You want the buyer to be comfortable purchasing the car from you. If they are, the sale will not need to be coaxed.

Once you’ve sealed the deal on your used Acura in NJ you can head out and begin the search for a new car. The best part of selling an old car is getting a new one. As a former Acura owner, you’ll know that Acura brings quality (and will likely want another Acura!). Head to Park Avenue Acura today at 171 Route 17 in Rochelle Park, NJ. You can also find Park Avenue online at http://www.acura-nj.com or by phone at 888-711-6535.
