2013 Acura ILX Sedan. After a decade of moving upmarket and farther away from the entry-level buyer, Acura's back with a new-generation compact model, the 2013 ILX. Smaller and less expensive than the TSX, the ILX sedan is aimed at shoppers who want something a bit nicer and sportier than the typical mainstream sedan but aren't willing to step up to the higher expense of an established luxury car. It reminds us a lot of the brand's old Integra, and like that car, the ILX is pretty successful in its mission. Nevertheless, you'll also want to be aware of the limitations of this strategy.
