As Acura's gateway car is prepared for its upcoming Civic duty, here's one last look at the current generation ILX. When Acura returned to the entry-level luxury segment in 2012 with the introduction of the Honda Civic-based ILX, they predicted they’d sell about 40,000 a year. Now, in what’s expected to be the ILX’s final model year before it transitions to the latest Civic platform, it’s likely to sell at less than half that rate in 2016.

The sharply creased front end and Jewel Eye LED headlights lead with a strong impression and in this Catalina Blue Pearl, the ILX strikes quite the pose.
