The Acura ILX is really an underrated car. It is much more than a gussied up Honda Civic; the platform and the i-MID system are probably the only things the car shares with the Civic. The design, engine, sheet metal, and materials are all unique to the ILX, and are two notches above a Civic. The car is designed to compete with the Buick Verano, Audi A3, Mercedes CLA and the BMW 2 and 3 series. Although engine performance, the quality of materials, and the overall driving experience is just a tad below the Germans, the vehicle can easily be had for less than $30K well equipped, giving it a strong value quotient. I got my 2.0L with the Technology package for $29.5 Out the door. The driving feel is tight - the steering response is precise with no wobbling. The engine sounds wonderful, and the braking is quick. The design of the car is reminiscent of the first generation TSX, but modernized and slightly shrunken down a bit. The cockpit is pure Acura, with beautiful blue lighting adorning a Swiss-watch like instrument gauges. Fuel economy is pretty nice, as I am averaging about 28mpg in mixed city and highway driving. On long highway trips, I am able to get about 400 miles of travel on a full tank. The car is perfect for weekend getaways for two. This is not a car for families, as the backseat is too small for anyone over 12 years old. This is an upscale pocket rocket that succeeds the Integra/RSX that Acura stopped building 10 years ago. Those of you who yearn for the sporty and upscale precision that Honda is known for, should spend the extra money and get the higher revving 2.4L. The 201 horsepower in that vehicle should be a gratifying experience.

I really like this car it runs nice and looks really nice. I love the style. It is so pretty and perfect for the type of cars I go for. I love the look of this car, it is one of my favorite I have purchased. This car is very comfortable, it is stylish, and has amazing seats. This car has enough room for a small group. Tt is not really made for a big one. The trunk is a nice size it is perfect for me but I am short as well. I love the quality of this car. It is expensive when I do have to have things repaired but overall the repairs have been minimal. I don't have noises in my car and it has the same blind spot on the rear view mirror side that every other car I have owned pretty much has requires a second glance over the shoulder. It has not been in the shop often just for normal maintenance and oil changes and had an issue with a hole in the tire. I think the repairs are a little high on this car but the gas has been good so far. It performs well and I love that it has not had too much work since the purchase. The car's acceleration, braking, and handling are all nice it runs very smooth and overall has been a joy to drive. I feel very safe in and control of this car it is one of my favorite overall of all my car purchases in the past.

My 2015 Acura ILX is the first car I leased. It was very affordable and fits in my budget great. The car is very stylish and sporty looking. The interior is leather and very comfortable. The seats recline perfectly and are heated for the winter to keep you warm and comfortable while driving. The car has plenty of power to drive anywhere. It moves along nicely on the highway and car cruises at 80 mph all day. The gas mileage is fantastic. We are talking 30+ MPG when driven correctly and 500+ miles on a tank. The wheels are my favorite part on the car—so sporty looking. It performs well in the snow and rain also. The sunroof is another great option, which lets cool air into the cabin on a hot day. I would look into leasing this vehicle again when the time comes.
