For the money I feel it's the best car in its class. Performance is top notch. This car comes with all the amenities that you need while other companies charge more for the same. If you want a car with incredible performance look no further!

4g tl was still the best looking car to me but this is growing on me

It is not bad - the grille is overly sized for the front end. I wish they would change the button gear selection. The dual screen placement is to 'Honda' for me. The red interior on the a-spec is sexy though.

I just bought this car. He nailed it. He is right on the transmission issues. Awkward shifting. Brakes are uneven, and car lurches when coming to a complete stop unless extremely gentle with them. Nav system is a waste of time. Does not understand spoken English like Siri. Your phone is easier to use. I would not buy this car. Not

Good review. However, I thought the ILX was the entry vehicle for Acura which competes with the 3 series and c class?

wish the headlights were angled with the grill like on the MDX.

Good detailed review without a lot of Navigation models, can you purchase map updates for used vehicles? Looking at 2017 but want to make sure I can get a map up for 2020 well maybe 2021 but you get the idea?

The more serious problems with the 9 speed ZF transmission have been addressed with the 2018 model year - did you do extensive test driving in the "Sport+" mode?

[bohan]

I wish the MDX could received the same infotainment upgrade with the faster capacitive touch screen and Android Auto/Apple Car Play interface.

Are you planning to review the 2018 Toyota Camry XSE V6 once it comes out?

[FamusFace]

Without any driving impressions it's not a good review imo.

Yo, the GPS maps are from 2003? I was still in high school then. Since then I earned a masters degree, have had five different jobs, got married, bought a house, had three kids, and even gained twenty five pounds. What the hell is Acura’s excuse for not growing up?

Unfortunately the upcoming typeS will have around 350 similar to M340i,
S4/5 or C43 AMG. It all boils down to the pricing. I got a TLX 2020
ASPEC few months back and right after that got buyers' remorse because
BMW offered me a 2019 330i for almost same price, maybe 5% more. Even
though TLX SHAWD is pretty good and the V6 generally speaking is more
smooth but the interior and ride quality + badge respect of BMW is miles
ahead of Acura. Also 330i's turbo4 beats TLX's v6 in 0-60. I test drove
both and the extra torque in 330i is quite evident and you can
definitely feel it but TLX's extra HP only is beneficial in highway and
even then it is not much better than a 330i.

So did you give up on YouTube or something? What's with the month+ of absence?

[dwanray]

Why I don’t Navi system on my car? I got phone button instead navi. I got trim level.

[nrborod]

What about remote start--is that a dealer installed item on this trim level?

[drivecfl]

Honda and Acuras are at the very least good cars. If you haven't driven them or owned them just looking at videos doesn't do them any justice. This doesn't mean they dont make stupid decisions like other manufacturer's.

Can we agree to stop saying "price point" when we really mean "price"?
