I've been waiting a long time for the KBB video review to finally hit the air. Micah is a true Honda and Acura enthusiast at heart, he used to have an S2000 and in previous videos has had references to it.
He hit all the minor down parts the car has, while emphasizing the more important features such as value, tech, and the improved overall driving feel and power train. Now if only ConsumerReports can get their bias out of the gutter and do a re-review on their site lol.

Well done Acura!
really thinking about buying this car once the lease is up. Sure in 2-3 years I'll have my eye set on a newer car/ maybe an Acura model, but this car is amazing I love it.
it's really fitting my needs. Call me crazy but a 2015 tlx was parked next to me and I was looking closely at each car, I would still take the 16 ilx
This car caught my eye since day 1 at the car show, it's the only design in its class that I actually like (aside from the Lexus and Audi)

I agree with you @Sixers12, for the longest time the Acura styling from say 2007-2012 was just soo... blehhh....
They just looked so un defined and lacked character. Hell the RLX's go completely un-noticed in everyday traffic.
Where as this new '16 ILX stands out. Its both radical and expressive, while still being very in-line with Acura's current vision for their future line of vehicles. Its as if they trimmed out all the fat out of the design leaving behind something truly 'cool' looking. And thats a word I haven't been able to use to describe an Acura for a very-very long time now.
Sure you can drive a BMW 328i or Merc or Audi A3; but those are getting so common now a days it just doesn't have any zest to it. And you end up paying for a lot of brand name for the privilege of it.
Where as you can park a Catalina Blue Pearl ASpec next to your friends BMW and look great, as well as your local tuner car meet, and still... look great. They hit both sides of the market perfectly I feel.
