Used Acura ILX for Sale in Santa Cruz, CA

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 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.

This car is great! Super sporty and fun but also safe and reliable. Has lots of fun extras, without the exaggerated price tag. Highly recommend this car.

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.

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!

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

Always quick service while I wait at dealership. The personnel are always smiling and friendly. Great products with Cadillac and Buick.

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

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.

I don't think buying a new ILX 2.4L would have made much sense, but you can find great deals on the used ones now. I paid less for mine that a same model year Civic SI, and get basically the same car but with leather and heated seats now. Perfect car for someone wanting a sporty little 4 cylinder with a touch of luxury. I look forward to me daily commute with this car.

My car radio/CD player stopped working on my 2003 Acura 3.2TL-S, so I went to the Acura Dealer. I was pleased there wasn't a charge to check the radio. They referred me to a car stereo company. The factory-installed car stereo lasted nearly 13 years, so I guess I can't complain. I appreciated the prompt, friendly service from my consultant! Great job.

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.

Carlos did a great job of taking care of the entire service experience. I got a shuttle to work on a timely basis, and then he got me a loaner car when the car needed to stay overnight. He kept me informed and I never wondered what was going on. The loaner car was a 2016 TLX which I enjoyed driving and would consider buying a new model when I'm ready.

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.
