Can a car still offer a luxurious driving experience without being big, heavy and expensive? We find two vehicles that fit the description, available for just under $30,000, which give you a premium driving experience, without the extra pretentiousness of a big luxury car.

Practically defining a new market segment, the Acura ILX and Buick Verano are small cars, but manage to be full of luxury goodies and technology. Both cars borrow platforms from less premium compacts: the Honda Civic underpins the Acura ILX, while the Chevrolet Cruze provides the basis for the Buick Verano. That said, are these two just dressed up economy cars? And if not, which is the better buy?

It's pretty rare that we get a chance to evaluate two vehicles for an extended period, but I recently spent time with both the 2013 Acura ILX and 2013 Buick Verano Turbo in the #MTGarage. I've been piloting the ILX for multiple months and thousands of miles and am intimately familiar with Acura's compact sedan.
So after spending some serious time with both of them what are your thoughts? Haven't heard much about the Acura.
