Scotty Kilmer It’s ok Scotty. We all know you can speak Korean.
Why didn’t you compare the ILX to the Honda Civic Si?
is it me or am I seeing a steady trend of praising Hondas and backing it up with facts while Toyota sits on the sidelines
Scotty can you make a review on Sprint boosters?
As a korean the caption never matches.. great job youtube.
A positive comment about Honda automatic transmissions from Scotty? Looks like Honda has been listening.
Hahaha,.. Damn 🤣😂😂🤣❤️
Lol! Gotta💕 love Scotty!😜
...and paying up
I was thinking the same thing. LOL
IDK about you, but I've been in the car business for a very long time and let me tell you this honestly. I've come across far fewer bad Hondas than Toyotas or any other car you can think of. I my opinion, Honda is the MOST reliable car manufacturer there is.
Man, the owner of that car must be really proud, it’s uncommon to have scotty drooling all over of a modern car
Well, he is in the process of changing from recommending Toyotas to recommending Hondas, especially compacts.
@@SayAhh even some mazdas
Scotty is right. It is a driver's car. The car is just so under rated.
Love my 2013 acura ilx. Great commuter car. Never complains and just wants to go
Do you have transmission issues or just me?
Do you have transmission issues or just me?
2:11 Scotty forgot to turn off the flash on his phone 😂
Doyyy lmaoo
David Noll lmao
My dad does this all the time.
He’s just that bright
Lolll
I saw that and immediately checked the comments to see if anyone caught that😂
201 HP that 1 extra HP is just from the Acura logo alone.
WooferJr 😂😂😂
I was thinking my lex has 225 because the L on the back added an extra 5 HP 🤣
ikr
😂🤣
omg thanks for the laugh, almost spit my coffee out!
I bought an Acura ILX 2016. It has been a year now. Choose to buy this after viewing this video. Love this car :)
I had a 2018 ILX as a loaner car for a couple days. Scotty is right, these are great drivers! Personally, I'd rather have a V6 like in the TLX, but this 4-cylinder is still peppy!
I am loving these positive Honda videos from Scotty lately
Acura is worlds ahead of honda, yes one owns the other but they make their cars separately
-ex honda tech
Well Honda's are very well made cars. And they have the best engines on the market
I have the pleasure of fixing Hondas and Acura’s everyday for work and the most engine work you’ll do on a Honda is a symbol 4 routine maintenance valve adjustment timing belt and water pump other then that you might have to throw some rings on a v6 here and there but nothing to major
@@aab434 Worlds apart yes, but TLX and ILX are made on the same assembly line as Accord and CRV. They produce a lot of Accords then roll through a lot of ILX, sometimes with no gap, one right after the other. Assembly processes are similar, sometimes identical. That being said I'd much rather have an ILX or TLX than an Accord or Civic.
Scotty always slamming the hell out of the trunks 🤣
I thought i was the only one that noticed that
I think he's upset there's no engine in there
Hehe XD
Especially when it's August in Houston, Texas
Rattled the license plate...
It's a shame that Acura discontinued the Legend. That was a great car.
Ocean Hedonist I still have mine 95 gs 🤦🏾♂️
lmao Honda still makes the legend they just renamed it
Acura Renamed it as RLX.
The design of the Legend still looks good.
@@gabrielleleiba1947 Those acronyms are hard to remember. I prefer Legend, Integra, Camry, Accord, Avalon, Civic, Corolla. If you tell someone you have a TLX they don't know what you're talking about.
Been driving my TSX for a while now love acura
2011 TSX V6
What year? I'm looking at a 2012 Acura tsx
Hit a deer with my '10 TSX.. had 181,000mi on it. Never in the shop. The TSX is a special car.. many built in japan. Got the 18 ilx now and it's great but miss the TSX
Huge shoutout to Scotty’s phone flashlight 👏🏽👏🏽
But is it a $5000 phone flashlight?
I see what you did, Uber comfortable seats lol
Just bought one yesterday on your recomendation. 2021 ILX 35K miles; $23.5 with tax. Thanks Scotty!
Good to hear you like the ILX, I bought a 2019 ILX a few weeks ago and your review gives me peace mind.✌️✌️
the ilx is a super cool looking car. i bought my dad a new one in 2017 2 years later he still loves his car.
The new ILX looks so gooddd🥵🥵must be niceee
The dct gives you so much control. Down shift to get to 4k Rpm and it will scoot.
Got my 2019 ILX about 3 months ago and have absolutely nothing bad to say about it. It’s so perfectly above average in everything besides the looks which I think are excellent. And for 27g a complete bargain
Just got one too. 8,500 miles when I got it, had one oil change, prior owner couldn’t make payments.
Fun little car. With a turbo it would be awesome to drive, although the recent Honda turbo gasoline mixing in oil make me worry.
It is like a luxury civic, fun thing to toss around. My prior car was Pontiac g8 got, had a 6.0 V-8. I miss that car but was it a heavy beast. Totally different driving dynamics. I’d advise everyone to own or lease a big American V-8 and a little 4 banger like this due to driving dynamics being totally different. Life all about trying new things, I’m glad we live in a world where both exist
As a former tech and now service advisor at Acura, these don't have too many issues. On some ILX's, there's a service bulletin for a TCM update and relearn procedure if the owner is experiencing a hard downshift to 1st gear when slowing down. There's also a driveshaft inspection recall campaign active right now as well. Other than that, about 50k miles per transmission service, but its a fluid change and a reset procedure on the TCM, so it's a bit more on the labor vs the standard .7 hours on the old 6 speed units.
Damn Honda just can’t get away from the tough first gear😂 I love my hondas👍
Dean Chen mine is closing in on the 50k in a couple of years, thanks for this valuable ingo
Roar Man I actually got my ilx s software update for the downshift to first, it only happened in sport mode, after the update, it’s been perfect
Dean Chen would you suggest buying a 2016 with 72k miles on it?

Lmfao
Right! lol! I seen him say before don't by a Honda!
it still overprice accord....
@@campkira civic
I was unprepared for the sweaty close-up at 3:35.
Thanks for the video though Scotty! These videos really help.
Thanks to Scotty, when i hear a car rev up, i can hear Scottys voice in my head saying "rev up your engines".
Somewhere in the background, if one listens very closely..you can hear Scotty's old '96 Celica sobbing after the cooment about him buying an acura...:P
Lol
I love Acura’s ❤️
I got a 2017 ILX, bought it used with 15,000 kms. This car is very fun to drive.
I bet!!
David Thourogood is it 4wd?
Brincandopabajo no
That’s dope. Congrats man.
@@Brincandopabajo Why would a car be 4wd??? U mean AWD? 🤦♂️
I have recently found your channel and watched MANY your videos. I also had my husband watch, then we did some research of our own...and Voila! Thank you for all your great suggestions and videos! I am now a first time Honda owner!
Got Scotty’s approval I want an ILX now! 🤣
If u buy Honda/Acura or Toyota/Lexus one things for sure, two things for certain. Ur buying quality.
Ghost Geist/Ichi Ayumi don’t forget Chevy and Chrysler!!! Those PT’s are classic !
It all depends on who owned them before. I had a T100 (my first truck) but the previous owner(s) didn't take care of it. However I was able to sell it for cheap at 220000 miles. There was so many problems with it. I just bought an Integral '93 well taken care of and I'm the second owner. Not much goes wrong with the car just give it TLC. If the T100 previous owners took care of the truck I'd still be driving it along side my Integra.
You said it right 👍🏼
You can buy quality but you can’t buy proper spelling.
I just got a used 2016 ilx and I love it! The engine is actually pretty fast and I’m getting good mpg.
Hey Scotty-
Have you driven this dct- and a cvt
I drove cvt- on newer Nissan Maxima and didn’t care for it- never driven a dct.
I’m a Honda Accord (sedan‘15- 128k)
owner and have to say- very dependable vehicles thus far- and easy to work on.
Great video and thanks 👍🏻
You gave me the confidence to pull apart a whole car. I'm piecing it to sell as parts and learn how it's all put together. It's a fun thing to do
I was a porter for Acura and I would always look for excuses (knocking rust off of rotors) to take these cars out to drive them. Such a great car.
Lol.
The only Acura trend I despise is that for some reason they started hiding exhaust tips on all their vehicles. I got my used infiniti at an acura dealership, and every car on the lot except my Q40 had no tip in the back. I was completely appalled. I asked the salesman and he said they have an environmentalist agenda.
@ 4:45 “Make em a lil’ better, make em a lil’ better...” LOVE THE CHANNEL, DJ Scotty!!!
I’ve got a 2019 civic sport with a standard trans and I love it! 🧡 It shifts like butter and I get 34 mpg city!
Scotty is slowing loving the Honda these days. Proud of my 2016 Honda Accord LX.
Black Silverchair Accords are kings of the road imo.
47-50 MPG in my 2018 Civic EX-T. Honda’s are the best cars ever made. I do like Toyota too though.
@@gregsolovieff6711 Junk of the road
@@maddmason9520 on sport mode or economy mode?
Madd Mason amazing!
Been running strong for 9 years in my Acura TSX k2.4 still drive it like I'm on a circuit track everyday. All these cars need is proper service and they'll last forever.
High Five from a fellow TSX'er!!! (2009 w/125K miles)
Ayy, I have a 09 TSX with 150Km (80K miles) on it. My engine makes a odd sound but otherwise she is running great
I chose the 2012 TSX over The new ILX... Mostly the style influenced me... ILX seemed like a womans car...and I don't mean that in a negative way.😉
2010 Acura TSX 2.4 6MT. On coilovers and flashpro. 161,000km no issues at all in 6 years of ownership (aside from VTC rattle fixed under warranty)
2009 TSX 6 speed w 162k miles. Running like a champ.

Looking to buy a 2019 ILX! Heard great things about the ILX so far, and always loved Acuras
Scotty needs to test drive the NSX after this review.
He is not a big fan of aluminum in automobiles ...
Scotty really dislikes any hybrid battery technology... like the NSX...
Y when he has a 94 celica?
Scotty has no consideration for super-racy cars, just not practical and they hit the chins on curbs.
Older nsx maybe lol
Im so glad I stumbled on this youtube channel. Scotty always tells the truth!👍🏾
He doesn't lie when it comes to car quality. He educates us on scams and misconceptions. I have gained a lot of useful knowledge from this channel.
My 2015 4 cylinder 8 speed TLX has been fantastic and is honestly just as reliable so far as any other Honda product I have owned in the past.. at first I was sceptical about the transmission because the shifts were harsh in cold weather but once you get used to the warm up you don’t even think about it. Other than that I’ve put 60,000kms in the last 2 years and I haven’t had a single issue. The car is totally solid and comfortable. It’s fast and good on gas, the electronic features are excellent and I’ve been spoiled now with this high quality luxury that when I get into a brand new mustang, Audi or even a Mercedes I appreciate how well built my Honda really is. I think it’s the best vehicle choice for a smart all around luxury vehicle
Had a 2019 ILX for 6 months and love it
I’m always a Honda fan when it come to above average performance fun driving experience , quick and fuss free car!
Like Scotty said if you want a smooth luxury vehicle you buy a Toyota/ Lexus but if you want the feel of a sports car you have to go with Acura.
Me 2. Love my 13 Civic Si.
Quick enough to NEVER worry about getting on the freeway, and feels like it's lookin out for me while I'm on it.
Honda = relax and drive 😊
I dont get it. Excellent transmission, but it is being serviced!!!
@@jaminoes_ Preventative Maintenance. Clean fluid means less heat and wear.
Have a 2011 Acura RDX with 100,000 miles. Only thing we had to fix was the alternator. Car has been awesome!
@chief tp 👍😁
@chief tp My father had a 2000 Ranger, changed the battery for the first time in 2017. I was amazed it lasted 17 years.
i have a 1995 toyota camry with 324k miles only thing i've replaced are wiper blades and brakes
Yea we'll get ready
The RDX is the MDX's little sibling. Absolutely love my '11 MDX., that thing is a beast!
Great video Scotty 👍 thank you for the through reliability analysis. I will keep Acura ILX on my radar
Scotty, love your commitment and content. Thank you sir!
That was a awesome video! I still have my 94 Acura Legend its amazing!
I have the exact same car, color and everything, and LOVE it!
Meeeeeee too my baby!!❤
Hey! I was just on here yesterday when you talked about the CRV. I, again (haha), work for Honda.
We build the ILX, TLX, Accord, & CRV. I like the TLX myself (not my profile pic, I know -Haha).
Thanks for all the compliments. 🚗...
Great video! Glad to hear this from scotty himself being I just picked up a 2018 ILX A-Spec
I'm just waiting for that time he opens the trunk and there's a body, or his cat pillow.
Lord Vader His cat pillow would be great. lol

I had an 08' Acura TSX, best handling car I have EVER driven...it was on the Accord chassis with similar motor as ILX has now. I brought it up to 135mph one evening on some new asphalt...smooth as glass. It was phased out by blending it with their TL model, now they offer the TLX which I hear is another amazing handling car.
Hi Scotty , I trust your advices and I'm happy I found your channel ! I will surely make the smart choice when choosing my next cars following your leads ! It's a real coincidence that you made this one about the Acura ilx because I'm 90% opting for this brand on my next purchase really soon but I'm also thinking Acira TLX because is a little bigger . Do you have the same advice on that one ?
I thought the four door Integra was the first Acura compact sedan. Then my favorite, tsx which kept the double wishbone suspension!
Scotty is taking all other car review channels to school, they will go the way of the dinosaur in no time!
Keep it up Scotty, the truth will set us free!
Smoke Stack 😂
Thanks for the help Scotty, I’ve had my eyes on one and now I know I should get it.
I’m looking forward to the upcoming Honda/Acura products. I test drove a 2020 accord and was super impressed
aw, this is perfect timing. I just got a 2007 acura tl yesterday as my first car. this video makes me so excited. thanks!!
I have a 2006 TL. 230k miles on it. Change the oil and timing belt and you should enjoy years of trouble-free, FUN driving.
Excellent video as always, Scotty! Rev up your engine and keep 'em coming!
Hi Scotty! I really like ur video, and would you do a review for the 2019 Rdx?
Just bought a used 2014 ILX Premium Package, love the drive.
Thank you Mr Kilmer your Acura ILX is in the mail😉
Is an Acura ILX really only $26500? That's dirt cheap for a luxury car.
ILX 2019 Aspec, I love my car. Happy to see this video from him lol. Roof rack is a must if you love the outdoors though.
Got the 2020 tlx aspec and I love it too
KIKS the fishermen ahhh the 2019 is SO aggressive looking, good choice
Did u manage to get one for ur car?
@@SuperFuzzypuppy yep Yakima roof rack!
I was searching for mod inspiration and came across this video. 2 years after I got mine and this made me love my purchase even more.
Getting myself one of those for my 20th birthday, my friend has a 2018 RDX, drove it 60k KM the first year with no issues
It’s a fancy Civic with a dual clutch. Really good for Uber Black.
nah it has a high output K24 too. the civic has a R20 (econ engine) and a crappy 1.5T
In deed despite being based in the previous generation Honda Civic
Randy Jackson just got my first car and was looking at older civics and the r18 was meh but i ended up getting a ‘11 accord 5MT bc the K24Z3 in it has much more potential
Have almost the identical car exept mine is a 2010 tsx 6mt all black the k serie engine is the best I've ever owned
And the best cars out there
201 hp out of a new luxury sports sedan? My 15 year old Mustang GT makes 260hp.
Its Acura's first compact sedan in the US, here in Canada we had the CSX and before that the 1.7 EL. Both were even closer to the civic than the ILX. I own a CSX, great car!
Actually, before the 1.7 EL, Canada also had the 1.6 EL for model years 1997-2000. People always said "it's just a Civic", since they were both built on the same platform on the same assembly line in Ontario. Having driven the 1.6 EL and the Civic of that generation, however, the EL was significantly superior in comfort and driving. Fantastic car.
Thanks, I was wondering how you felt about Acura & how they differ from Honda. Three year old is exactly what I would be looking for. Nice
Just bought my new 2021 Aspec with the Technology package I love it glad to see that I’ll should have it for years to come!
That 1 hp tho, win or lose a race, so important.
I got a grand 4 hp more in my 2008 Acura TSX
😅😂🤦🏻♂️ facts !!
A win is a win fam
Decal or two and you will be king haha
@@NicsElectronics lol
My tsx still kicking, btw k motors are beast
You know, I agree. My 05 Accord still has good pickup
Mine just hit 150k on my tsx the only thing I replaced was oil tires and brakes. Still running like I took it of the lot. Highly impressed and my previous vehicle was a Audi. Will never look at another German car ever.
yalman32 agreed k boosted motors are beasts
yalman32 i think they’re the best in every way (performance, reliability, fuel efficiency, etc...) it’s the best engine in my opinion, 2.0,2.4 or even the 2.3 turbo, they’re all great, efficient, and reliable cars!
2001 Honda Odyssey I work out of runs buttery smooth.
Nice job Scotty the value just went up👍
Bought a used 1999 Acura TL when I lived in Hawaii briefly and it had around 91k miles..car was so nice to drive
Hopefully the Acura Type S lineup won’t disappoint. After seeing the concept model, I’m optimistic.
I'm hyped for the TLX Type-S
elusivellama wanna know if it has SHAWD, or if can get it with SHAWD.
Acura said the turbo V6 motor will be paired with SH-AWD. Google Acura Type-S, the announcement was from Jan or Feb 2018.
You think it will come with a 6 speed? I have an 08’ TLS with a manual
Scott, I've really enjoyed and respected your videos, but having driven my 2017 ILX coming up on 2 years now, I'm absolutely dumbfounded by your claim that the 8-speed DCT is one of the best transmissions.
I *cannot* stand the transmission during stop-and-go and inner-city driving. It gets constantly confused, especially coming from a [rolling] stop, and the paddle shifters definitely have lag. I'm honestly wondering whether we're even talking about the same car...
I actually purchased one bc I follow Scotty and his knowledge about what cars are most or least reliable. Scotty knows alot about cars. Thank you.
Exactly why I bought my Acura ILX 2016 model - well said Scotty
I have a 07Acura TL Type-S . I love my car drives great
So a v6 accord without the 6spd mt
Transmission are bad no ?
@@JonathanSanchez-tu8ms auto yes, classic Honda auto. SH-AWD no, great trans
@@wilurbean and brembo calipers,engine is a little bigger,and looks 3 ×better.I would never trade my tl for a accord.
Jonathan Sanchez never had a problem so far yet thank god. I had a 05 Acura TL base model and with 288k miles before I sold it to get a Type-S. It shifted great still.
You can rarely go wrong with any Honda product....their engines have been influencing our modern world more than we really think.
Nice episode Scotty. I owned a 1991 Legend LS for 16 years. Best car I ever owned.
Great video showing the Kaizen principle at Acura. I had been considering purchasing a used Lexus, but perhaps it’s worth considering the Acura as well. Whenever I am driving out and about I wonder to myself that all these people on the road must have not listen to Scotty’s advice else they would know better. It goes double when I drive by a local car repair center in my 15 year old Toyota vehicle.
Well Acura is becoming a game changer now as they are bringing back Type S
Type S is going to be so good!
If this type s is like the ones before its going to have 310 horsepower. Base TL 258 type s 286. If the previous type s was a 0 to 60 5 second car I could see but I dont get the hype over the previous type s models. The SHAWD in the 4th gen alone made the TL a better sports sedan.
@@ajevthetruthisthetruthnotc8390 hopefully we a get 415- 425 hp 3.5 twin turbo engine out this type s. But knowing Acura that might not happen....
I'm really hoping for that V6 twin turbo as well, if that does happen, it will be a game changer for them!
@@ajevthetruthisthetruthnotc8390 They benchmarked it with the S4, C43, and M340i, so it's going to have competitive HP in that segment at a lower price point
At 3:36 try driving a Fiat / Chrysler with a Dual Dry Clutch Transmission
Finally you talk about my car! I have the 2014 ILX Hybrid! Good thing you approve of my car.
Hi I just purchased this same car in March and you’ve taught me so much about it. Thank you.
I love my 2014 ILX 2.4L manual. The last manual transmission Acura offer.
my dream car..too bad they are done with manual trans.
@@violinforever yeah, if only they made manual for the TLX. Would've gotten that instead.
No 2015 ILX has a manual 6sp....as i own one
I like before the video starts because I already know that it’s going to be good and it is
Scotty have you seen a product called F11 topcoat.. I get several emails each day about this product that claims once applied the car will be easier to clean it’s pretty expensive though so I thought I’d ask you about the product.. thanks. Keep up the good work love your videos
I just bought a 2017 acura ilx and I love it thanks to scotty
depending on if it was painted during A or B shift my Wife may have been the one that put the bumpers on that Acura.
@Lucas Cruz LOl well lets hope it wasnt my wifes shift then
@Lucas Cruz heh heh thered be no way of knowing anyway, also i have a correction from my wife shes in the step right before it goes on the car and said the guys in AF (where it gets put on) are idiots
@Lucas Cruz lol yea i know yer messing with me but i did ask my wife (because we where laughing about it) and she confirmed that the part of the building that makes this is full of meatheads becauuse of how fast paced its supposed to be happening they cant get "smart" people to be able to keep up physically. aparently they have something like 20 seconds for each process, so that plus meatheads + falling bumpers lol.
I have a new Civic Si and man is it a great car. I also love the fact they only make them as a stick shift, super fun to drive and A LOT less likely to get stolen.
Let's likely your wife can ask to drive
SIs do get stolen, manual or not.

High resale value, profitable parts market, and valueble engine.
Just bought a 2016, 6-speed Civic. Absolutely love it!
I am glad you made this video. I bought a 2016 Acura TLX last year. I mainly bought it because I had a Honda Accord in the past and it was a good car. The Acura is just a luxury Honda. Its a nice car with a V6. I can get 38mpg on the Highway and about 29 combined. Its nice. The only thing I don't like about it is it doesn't have allot of head room. But its still a great car for a reasonable price especially if you buy them used like I do.
Just bought a 2016 TLX and I'm loving it
Ive got an ILX- I LOVE IT.
Scotty! You should do a video on the new Acura type s concept!
Infinite why? It's a concept he wouldn't be able to say anything if it was about to be released, lol embargo city
Keye T just his thoughts, on the design, the rumored V6 turbo, the monikers return etc
Infinite ehhhh He is just going to call it a gimmick that's what he says about every concept car, anytime I've seen someone ask him about the upcoming vehicle l he pretty much says that
I love mine! I get over 40 mpg while cruising on the highway. I make trips back and forth from Charlotte to Orlando, and if I cozy up behind a semi, I can easily get 44. It's pretty amazing
Just bought a 2019 ILX last night. LOVE IT! It's a dream to drive.
Honda must have something on Scotty if he keeps promoting them lately.
I am slightly a fan of the 2016 to 2018 Acura ILX with the 2.4 L four-cylinder engine with a little over 200 horsepower and the eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. These cars are the best to own and to drive, especially if you are a new driver, experienced driver or if you are planning to get one for your first vehicle. This is a lot better than a 2006 to 2015 Honda Civic with the 1.8 L four-cylinder engine with 140 horsepower and the five-speed/CVT automatic transmission.
Astroturf much?
Wow thanks for this video which yanked me into your discussion to hear this whole thing. I think we need to upgrade my wife's car to this one now. SUPER FUN BEGINNING ON YOUR ENDING ROCK TAG TUNE. I can't quite remember which one this was. Help! I am disappointed by no more burning rubber whether motorcycle or sport car. Best regards
Just bought one today I really can't wait to drive it now thanks buddy!!!
