2018 ILX Exterior
As the most compact Acura sedan, the ILX's truncated proportions make for an attractive and inoffensive appearance. While it lacks the more modern grille treatment found on some other Acura models, the face benefits from standard Jewel Eye LED headlights. The slim taillights also get the LED treatment and a power sunroof is standard on all models. Both the Special Edition and A-Spec Packages up the ante with larger, 18-inch wheels (the base gets 17-inch items), a rear spoiler, and side sills, but only the A-Spec includes fog lights.
