Acura EL
This car is great, worth every penny. Great on gas, minimal on repairs. I could drive from Ajax to Niagara Falls and back on just a Full tank of gas and still have gas left over!

by schlaBAM on 11-22-2012
Quite a classy car
I bought this car with high hopes, and it sure fulfilled them! Although it i lacking a little power(1.7 litre engine), it makes up for it with its fuel economy (600-650 kms on the highway).
The fully loaded car comes with leather seats, a wood trim, metallic outlines, heated seats, a sunroof, and premium audio (great speakers!).
The exterior looks very classy, as my car is all black with a chrome trim. Looks very good, and the aluminum rims also look pretty snazzy!
As of now the only thing I've had to do is an oil change and will soon replace the timing belt (hitting 120 kms, will do it in the next 10-20 thousand), so it's reliable and cheap to run!
Overall, I love this car. It's my first car, and I have nothing bad to say about it!

Terrific car, great gas mileage!
Have had 2 ELs and no issues with either. Solid reliability on both highway and city roadways. No issues on mountain roads, as I travelled between BC and AB. No problem passing - good kick when needed.
Size is good for city parking spots!

2005 Acura EL

Trim: 1.7 EL
by GamingRabbits on 11-10-2012
Very Stable Car Surprisingly..
Summary:

The best car I think I will EVER own!

Faults:

Original clutch had to be replaced at 315,000 KM! Nothing else major. Be sure to change the timing belt every 100,000km's. Also don't cheap out, change the water pump while you are at it.

General Comments:

I purchased my used Acura EL 1.7 back in 2005 with 82,000km. I am very proud to say that I am still driving this vehicle today with 317,000 KMs! This is the best car that I think I will ever own. My Acura and I have travelled to Vegas, Arizona and even to Mexico. This car has never let me down or made me walk!

Good solid car made from a good solid manufacturer, and best of all, it's built right here in Canada in Alliston Ontario!
