"Only problem is that window washer has frozen in recent northeast cold spell. Will call dealer on next business day to see if there is factory insulation available. Otherwise, after 2 weeks, very happy with car. Phone etc. complicated for a non-electronic person."

"I have owned this car for 6 months now. Its reliablity, comfortable ride, sporty nature and integration with much of needed latest techinology have kept my confidence growing in it since day one. Never hurt my pocket and the customer service has been amazing. I am happy with my choice of this car over TSX which is slightly roomy."

"I had a TSX prior, which ended up being the most reliable car I've ever owned. We got the ILX because it is very similar but smaller and slightly cheaper. We are enjoying the car so far."

"I have driven a stick most of my life, and they are getting harder and harder to find. I had a 2000 Infiniti G20T, 5-speed, and wanted the same luxury options and great gas mileage, but most of what is out there in a manual trans are gas burners like Mustangs and Camaros. So glad Acura made a car just for people like me! It has every option I wanted, even a rear view camera, EXCEPT for a garage door opener option. Also can't get navigation, but didn't care. This car drives like a dream, and I have gotten many compliments on the nice exterior styling. Glad I waited until they came out with this model, it was so worth it."

"I've had my Acura ILX for a month now and I like it a lot,but I don't love it. I had a 2011 Mazda 3 Sport before this and it had more power and for the price it offered more overall.I love the gas mileage in my ILX I'm getting 31-32 mpg combine. I personally do not mid that you have to put premium in the gas tank, but it could be an issue for people that live pay check to pay check.I wish Acura had something like UVO which my girlfriends new KIA Soul has and hers was $10,000 cheap than my car.They could have added a nice tablet in the dash and the paddle shift on steering wheel is in the way.The flaw drive placement makes the car feel cheap with wires showing."

"I've been in my new ILX for three weeks and am loving it! I went from a Toyota Highlander to my first Acura and am enjoying every minute. I was in the market for a fun, stylish vehicle with better fuel economy and the ILX hit the mark. The current lease offer was a no-brainer, priced at or below non-luxury brands of vehicles worth several thousand less."

"One of the bst cars I have drove so far! The ILX has sporty handling, good braking, a comfortable ride, and great fuel economy. The only complaint I have about this car is the fact that its exterior looks too much like the Acura TL and TSX and 2012 Honda Civic and it's not as attractive as past Acuras. Other than that, Acura all the way!"
