I love the 2018 Acura ILX. Both exterior and interior are beautifully designed. It gets great mileage and drives great. Acura did a fantastic job with the ILX.

Acura sold me a faulty care knowingly. There were engine problems, and many problems with this model, and the sales manager sold me the car anyway. Less than 12 hours after owning the car, I had to have it towed. Battery charging issues, issues with the computer/dashboard, and even after the dealership replaced the battery the car staled on me more than 5 times in less than 2 weeks. The dealership was waiting for a part to be delivered to repair the issues but did not offer me a rental or replacement instead just let me drive the car and make sure to refill the tank every 85 miles. I ended up calling the manufacturer and that is when things changed. Still driving the car, and it seems fine with the new part. Headache with Acura for almost 2 months.

It is like I'm driving myself at speeds that I am not capable of driving. Full control of the auto from 0-150. It goes 0-60 faster than any car I've owned previously, and seems to prefer riding at high speeds once it gets there. The smooth riding ILX shows an impressive mile per gallon meter that is completely full at over 70 MPG when cruising 80 MPH on the highway.
If needed, it certainly has another gear above that as well and can reach it quickly.
This car is not only a great value, it drives like it is not.

Although Consumer Report's rating wasn't good, Acura ILX gives my wife and me comfortability in driving which we haven't had with Volkswagen Jetta.

My vehicle's right hand side front bumper has a quarter inch to half inch gap away from the head light. The grill is off too.

I really like the Acura brand. They make quality cars with safety top of the list. I don't like they had my car for the first couple of months due to an issue with the fuel tank they couldn't figure out how to fix. I did love the loaner vehicle they put me in. It was a fully loaded Acura RDX. I didn't like going back to my small ILX after driving it for a couple of months. ILX is in our budget, RDX is not. That is why we chose the ILX in the first place...great value, sportiness, safe, good gas mileage, sunroof, latest technology without navigation. I did have them tint the windows and was really pleased how they turned out. It adds to the sportiness of the car. I do not like the way you have to manage your phone features while driving. I do like there is bluetooth with a nice sound system. Red makes my car have the spunk I was looking for going into my 50th year of life! I would like a more powerful, faster car on my next lease.

My 2018 Acura IXL vehicle is 4 months old and the axle on the car broke. It broke without any warning. The car just stopped in the middle of the street. The dealership had to order the parts and it has been almost 3 weeks and the part still is not in. I would not recommend the car to a friend because their motto is safety and they will not exchange the car.

My new car has done exactly what the Salesman said it would. I love the reliability of my vehicle and the style it brings to what I'm looking for in a new car.

I chose my vehicle because of my relationship with the dealer and I had heard Acura is a well made auto. I have an ILX and so far my only complaint is that it is sporty and not as comfortable as I'd like. It is a little difficult to enter and exit. Otherwise I enjoy driving it and get reasonably good gas mileage.

I like all Acuras. This one is the cheapest, I believe, but has all the functions of the other models, although the camera is not as good, and the gas tank is smaller, But it handles well, and has sufficient pick up. You do have to pay extra for anything other that an AM/FM radio. That should be standard.
