Used Acura ILX for Sale in Charlotte, NC

I've been thinking about how to write this review without making it too long. There is just no way around it. It might be a little long.. I'm a retired senior citizen with a limited budget. My wife and I searched the internet for over two weeks researching the car we wanted in the Charlotte area. We found many but either the price was too high or the miles were. Then we thought we found it at Adams. They had a lot of good photos, we loved the color and it was a top of the line model. It had extras like leather interior, a moon roof, and a 12 speaker sound system with 360 watts of power! (I was a teen in the 70's and that thing can really put out some some great sound!) It also had low mileage and a great detailed carfax. I called to see if it was still there and it was. I told the person on the phone THAT was the car I was interested in and it had to fit my monthly budget. I told them what my monthly payment could not exceed and if I drove there to see it I needed to know it fit my budget. The next morning I got a call telling me they could hit my number and to come on down to see and test drive it. We went down, drove it, and loved it. Of course I just knew they were going to tell me my payment would be either what I told them or a few dollars more. Not only did Jason Dunham (Sales Manager) come in and tell me my payment would be $20.00 BELOW my budgeted number, but also he gave us a 3 year 36,000 mile warranty at no additional cost! Also, our final price included sales tax and licence fees. It was raining when we I got in to drive it home. When I got home I noticed a small "scuff" on the left corner of the rear bumper. My wife said "oh let it go! it's nothing..." After I reviewed the pictures and it wasn't there I called Adams and told them "I know I took possession and took it off the lot and take full responsibility for doing that, but can you do anything?" Well, Jason told me to bring it back and they would look at it. I brought it back and Jason said"of course I will fix that". So I took it back for the repair. Since we have such a unique color car and it is 3 years old they decided if they only pained that corner there may be a problem with a perfect match. Therefore, I had to leave it overnight as they decided to paint the entire bumper! No charge to me! It is a perfect match! I have bought many new and used cars over the years but NO ONE has ever treated me with such respect as Jason, and Henry. If you are looking for a great car for a great price you need to give Adams a try. You will not regret it!

I very happy with this car. I don't have the same complaints as other owners, but feel the car is comfortable enough for a low-end luxury car. The only problem is of my own making; I paid a little too much for this car, and should have done more homework before shopping for one. Since I drive less than 3,000 per year, I'm hoping this will be my last car. The 2006 Acura TL I had dropped the transmission, so I sold it to the repair shop owner. It would have cost $4,000 to replace the transmission on a $7,000 car.

I just want to thank Mr Renee for his professional act of kindness in quick process in get me and my wife???s our Grand Caravan we are so happy and excited about our new vehicle you and Amanda and Mr Jeremy were great thanks again God Bless you guys.😄😎😅

When I seen it I wanted it. I waited an I finally got my car. I love it. I drive it everyday. I just enjoy my new car

Lance was a knowledgeable salesman. He is professional, patient and kind. I love my new/pre-owned vehicle :-D The financing was spot on with the quote with the payments I had budgeted. Adams Auto was a great experience...Thanks!

You really cant beat the ILX for the price. Other cars with much less cost much more. The car is tight with no squeaks or rattles. Interior has everything you need. This is the 3rd ILX we've gotten in a row.

Just opened and I live right down the street, how convenient! Engine light came on in my 09 Chevy traverse... it was the dreaded P0008 code, timing chain needed replacement. My cat was out of powertrain warranty and I was not the original owner. This was a common issue for this engine and year along with several other vehicles. Gm made good by it... they took care of everything, no questions asked, no back and forth and the service tech Cindy helped tremendously. It really could have gone either way, but there was a bulletin released and a special warrant was extended on this issue. They recognized it and saved me thousands, literally thousands. Traverse is running great and parts and labored is guaranteed 3 years unlimited mileage. Great service

This car is a great car with a great value. I love it’s features even for a base model. Execellant car will purchase another Acura next time I buy a vehicle.

Ricardo S. was amazing! I decided to drive 2.5 hrs to meet him after several phone conversations with him trying to help me find my second car. He spent the entire day with me once I arrived to Charlotte and even entertained my 5 year old (IMPOSSIBLE TO DO) while I was doing the financial portion of the sale! Amazing hands down! & I cannot believe I'm just now meeting him and finding this car lot. :( Aside from that, this was honestly the BEST experience I've ever had buying a car and the only thing I regret is not coming here sooner!

I own this car for almost 10 months and I was surprised about the amount of technology and reliability you have in this car. I was looking for Audi A3 (middle version) and mercedez CLA250, Audi for this similar price doesn't offer half of the technology and Mercedes is way more expensive and has a little bit rough driving (but it is nice looking too). I went to a dealership to look at the other options, when I went for the test drive on the ILX, I was impressed about everything around the car. Also, it is important to say that the maintenance is waaaay cheaper than the german cars. If you are looking to impress and have a luxury car and high tech, this car is the one to go

Carmax has been the most amazing shopping for a car! My whole encounter with everyone, well their are no words but simply "Outstanding Service" I have shared this with so many people. I wish you the best with the best sales person ever Ms. Shama. An awesome sales person who really cares about the customer. Thanks to the Carmax Team

I found the technology to be excellent and appropriate for such a stylish vehicle. The engine (2.4 Liter) has more than enough power and hugs the road at higher speeds.

I’ve been going to Hendrick Acura for many years, the service is second to none! Knowledgeable staff of service advisors, timely appointments so you don’t have to wait all day for your vehicle, and a comfortable waiting area with complimentary snacks and Wi-Fi. You can even request to have the same technician to work on your car each visit, that way they have some history with the vehicle. Much better than going to a new person every time. Talk about service! My favorite tech is Marshall, he’s super-awesome. He brings a wealth of experience and a depth of knowledge about Hondas & Acuras that would make you say, “how did you even learn that?” He’s the best tech I’ve ever had, and I’ve owned Acuras for over 20 years! Do yourself a favor and give them a call!!

Great power and drive.I am so happy with this car. It has a nice quiet drive with fantastic pick up for being a 4 cylinder. There are no blind spots and this was a major concern. Lots of room for four people. I got the package with all the safety factors.

Jim Holshouser is a very honest, down to earth guy. He made the whole process of buying a car a surprisingly easy and pleasant experience. I highly recommend him. The only reason I didn't buy the car is that it didn't have all the options we were looking for.

This vehicle is comfortable reliable and user friendly. Very stable driving experience. I would definitely recommend this car to friends and family.

My old car was my third minivan in 15 years. Now that my kids are older and leaving for college, I wanted something that could carry 6 or 7 passengers but was ... well... NOT a minivan. I did some research on late model used three-row SUVs, and found the 2017 Nissan Pathfinder. (My favorite of my three vans was a 2005 Nissan Quest, so choosing Nissan was easy for me.) Before I started browsing for cars, I applied for credit through Carvana, and was approved. Next, I entered in all of the information about the van I was trading for the Pathfinder. (Beware -- the trade-in amount is only good for 7 days, and it can change wildly in that time!) I was pleased with the trade amount, and it was great that I could shop for my new car and see my down payment and monthly payment for every car I viewed! My specifications were pretty clear -- AWD, less than 10,000 miles, and never a rental car. I found my dream car a few days later, and started the purchase process. It was quite smooth and the directions were very clear about what documents need to be uploaded. When I went to click on "finalize purchase" (or something like that), a red flag popped up...my trade-in value expired WHILE I WAS IN THE PROCESS OF CHECKING OUT! I got on chat with Carvana staff right away, and they were able to return the trade in value to NEARLY what it was before the expiration. This is something that needs to be addressed by Carvana -- once a customer is to a certain point in the process, those numbers need to be frozen. So we set a delivery time, and the Carvana rep was pretty much on time considering he was traveling 70 miles or so from the Chicago office. Everything was smooth -- signed a couple more papers, took my Pathfinder for a spin, Eric inspected my trade, and I left within 30 minutes with my new car. I would also like to add that I drove directly to my mechanic, so he could inspect the car and make sure I wasn't buying something with hidden damage. Mechanic said to me, "This car is perfect, like new." Just what I wanted to hear. Thanks Carvana! I am telling everyone I know about you guys. Good to work with you! Janet - 2017 Nissan Pathfinder

This car has met my expectations and exceeded some as well. All my reading and research has come to life once I bought this car. The steering, handling, and braking makes me feel very safe and secure. The comfort of the leather interior along with noise insulation makes my drive pleasurable. This car handles like a dream and has a very smooth ride. The sleek body style draws the eyes of people on the street. I love the LED jeweled headlights and the dimmers on the mirrors which makes night time driving less stressful. Overall I am extremely pleased with the purchase of my Acura.

This is a review of my SELLING experience to Carvana. I listed my car on Craigslist and was approached by an outsider buyer named Jan. She introduced me to Carvana, which I never heard of before, and it's process. She was very helpful and walked me through the process. The first deciding factor for selling to them was that they offered me the best price (vs. CarMax, Auto Nation, Trur Car). Then I realized the process was super streamlined. All I had to do was upload my documents and, after approval, schedule an appointment for the pickup of my car. Carvana sent a truck to COME TO ME to pick up the car. The driver (Lauren?) was very courteous and pleasant to work with, too. The pickup process, which included a one-mile test drive, took no longer than 20-30 minutes. Immediately after loading my car to their truck, I was handed the check, which I immediately deposited without any issues. My selling experience from being contacted by buyer to getting the check took just 10 days! (Would've been even faster if I was more timely with uploading my docs.) I'd highly recommend Carvana for selling your cars!

After reading several so so reviews, comparing it to the Civic, BMW, Lexus, etc. Not sure why the ILX deserved so so reviews. Sure, it's not as nice all around as the Lexus & BMW but clearly not as pricey. We test drove a 2017 Civic which as really nicer than I ever remember the Civic to be but somehow did not have the refined aura as the ILX. ILX gave good enough performance, ride, features, comfort and quiet to make it definitely a car that I would be happy to own. And was a better deal than the Civic. Hard to get a deal on a highly desired car as the 2017 Civic. We previously owned a 2015 TLX which clearly outperforms the ILX in every way but honestly it was TOO much car for us. So the ILX fit the bill, better on the budget and we still get that luxury feel and performance but not as intensely as we did from the TLX. It would be safe to say the ILX is a scaled down version of the TLX.

Buying through Carvana was one of the best transactional experiences ever! I shopped for several months, test drove several cars to understand the models and features I was looking for. Then, boom, the car that matched come up in my search and I pulled the trigger. Within minutes, I had a value on my trade-in, purchased the car, (to include a very well priced extended warranty), and arranged for financing it through the Carvana website. And, while that was a very easy, non pressure experience, what made it really special was the delivery. Rachel, the Caravan rep, called me the day before the delivery to confirm, then called while in route to be sure not to leave me hanging. She was right on time, professional, and extremely upbeat. I had a genuine feeling that her priority was not only to deliver the car and pick up my trade in, but it was to make the final part of my experience a pleasure as well. Rachel was extremely knowledgeable of the process and did an excellent job of assuring I was informed of the "7 day, no questions asked, test drive" as well as the final paperwork to be processed. A few signatures and the trade-in was her's and the keys to 2014 BMW 535 were in my hands.

My second ILX leased from Acurra of Peoria. It meets my needs and expectation. Style features, comfort and economical. And the team at Acura of Peoria did an amazing job as they have always.

I waited hoping to get the 2017 Honda Si but when I drove it was very disappointed with the turbo lag along with the low rpm red line. I was also hoping for more hp and torque along with an 8 or 10 speed auto so I could add lane assist etc... little did I know that everything I wanted had been available on the 2017 Acura ILX tech package. I purchased this vehicle at Acura in Santa Barbara new $10,000 off list price of $33,800. Living on the central coast where we have roller coaster roads I still manage to get 36 mpg easily and as much as 42mpg on level freeway trips if I shift to sport mode and locked on 8 gear maintaining speed at 60 mph. 0 to 60 in 6.5 seconds which is quicker than the 2017 Honda Si, ELS sound system, 3D GPS leather heated seats and the list goes on and on. I currently also own a 2012 Acura MDX which I also love but I prefer the ilx when I really want to enjoy the thrills of carving through the canyon roads. I sold my 2008 Honda ex with 260,000 miles on it and still ran great but the best fuel economy from my civic was 32 maybe 33 at times and not as fun to drive.

Very good at a low price excellent for work or any activity strongly recommended it very nice and luxurious dependable at a great value price

This has been our 'other' car for quite some time. We love it. Purchased in 2015, my wife has used this as a commuter car in and out of the city. Smaller than the other Acuras, but handles like sports car. Has plenty of get-up and go. Good electronics for a 2013 model.

I went to T&C Toyota for a recall and found out I had 4 to take care of (I ignored the others....) and they took such good care of me and my car! Michael on the phone was so polite and nice and he ordered the parts for the next day because it was the only day I could come in. Michael was a pleasure to work with. Then when I came in, John D’errico helped me out and was my point of contact. I was very comfortable in the waiting area (it was a long stay....4 recalls! Oops! ) where they had comfy chairs, free fresh popcorn, coffee and good tv on. When the car was returned to me, they’d even had it washed and they put air in my tires!! I’d come back any time.
