Sharp vehicle and I love that “up to speed” segment at the beginning of each review 🤜🏾🤛🏻

Great channel and great presentation as always sir. The car looks really sharp and refined. This is the 2018 accord all over for me. Initially design seems lackluster and unbalanced, but the more I look at it, it's definitely growing on me.

Thank you for really driving it! That’s putting in the extra work, and why I love this channel! Not a big fan of the Integra but I like this shark fin carbon color, or whatever grey name it was called. Awesome review!

Love his videos! His personality is too cool! Goes to show you even in a crowded segment like car reviews, you can stand out! Keep it up!

Your videos are the absolute best!! Thanks for being real and true in your reviews 🙌🏾👌🏾🔥

I would go for the 6MT. Yes, I am gonna get a little worse gas mileage with the 6MT over the CVT, but I like the 6MT more.

Allright guys rat824 here and I'm in Jacksonville,FL to type out some comments on Joe's review of the latest offering from Acura. But before we get into that, let's talk about what's going on here.......seriously The Raiti's Rides reviews are among the best. Thanks for all you guys do!!!

Great job, loving the review like also and the camera filming is perfect. Thanks again

I'd be all over it. With these gas prices, I don't feel I will be able to maintain my V8 sedan for too much longer. I heard you can get up to 360-400 miles of fuel range out of the new Integra. If it had the blue exterior with the red seats and manual, I'd be all over that, but Acura likes to do the blue on red with A-Spec package when cars go into its mid-cycle refresh, so either I ride this out and wait until they offer it like that, wait until the Integra Type S comes out next year to see what it'll be like or look at the Elantra N as an alternative. The Integra overall does not deserve the hate it has been getting all because it's does not look like a DC2 Integra Type R or a DC5 RSX Type S. The fact that people would get riled up for it using the 11th gen Civic Si's engine blows my mind. Acura is not trying to relive their past. Times have changed. Everybody knows that, but everybody who hates this car just refuse to accept and can't take a chill pill when they know there is an even faster version (Integra Type S) coming out next year. Acura couldn't bring that engine out right away because it hasn't been used for newcoming gen Civic Type R duty yet, but when it does, then Acura will the Integra what it deserves that people ask for. For everybody complaining that this Integra still has 200hp, you need to be reminded that the DB8 Japan-spec Honda Integra Type R, DC2 U.S.-spec Acura Integra Type R, and the DC5 RSX Type S we're all between 195-210hp and with the upgrades Honda made to the 11th gen Civic Si sedan engine and how underrated it is after it was on a dyno and makes 223hp and 233lb-ft (which Honda should have put that on paper) so people would not be crying over a sorry -5hp loss, the new 5th Integra picks up where the old Integras of the 3rd gen and the RSXs of the 4th gen last left off at.

Oh yes!! this is all I have been waiting for this one to and this will be my dream car to drive around as my daily driver of course. Overall, brilliant job and review Joe.

I just bought this car today. Your review is spot on!!!

Best review channel on KZfaq!! Great review. I’m definitely looking into that A spec with a manual!

Great as executed . I will snag it this year . Yes it could have been tweaked in certain areas , but , in this new iteration it is exquisite. Fantastic review and appreciate your enthusiasm Joe .

Joe & lori killin' it again with this review. Thank you!! 🔥🔥🔥

It was a pleasure meeting you sir keep up the good work 👍🏼

Love your videos, so fun and informational at the same time.

Looks amazing. Almost perfect. I looked into pre-ordering, but couldn’t get the gray with the light interior so will have to wait and see. Not really a fan of the red interior. I do agree no ventilated seats and no rear AC is a bummer.

Thanks for the review. Thanks for being the only auto journalist to turn the engine on weeks ago. This is the only car that checks all the boxes in a specific segment. Trust me I've done the research. The only thing that is a miss to me is no panoramic sunroof - goes extra bc it was on the prototype. But at least it has a sunroof. Yes it is better than VW. As VW is more akin to Honda, Acura to Audi. I was a die hard Acura hater until this prototype hit. To all the hate being thrown at this car...just move to whatever manual luxury hatchback you think is better. We can wait bc it doesn't exist. Praying dealerships play nice.

😀😀I drove an integra in the early 90s. It was a great car and lots of fun to drive. It is good to see its return. I am definitely in the market for a car like this. I would think the competition would be the Genesis G7. Around the same price point. You had fun driving it so that tells me that it still is fun. Very nice tour. Excellent camera work. Special thanks to Laura. Salute. Really glad to see this car again.👍👍💥💥

I can’t believe he doesn’t have million subscribers joe is the most entertaining informative and cool fun guy I ever watched to car reviews at first I made some stupid comments about candy and food talk in car pockets lol but then I actually enjoyed it grew on me now he is my favourite car reviewers

I think for the $$, I would wait for the Type S on this bad boy, since Acura I'm sure has this plan in the works already. 70 boxes of twinkies in the trunk with the seats down is a good selling point though, Joe! Haha, good video as always! Can't wait for the Toyota Corolla 3 banger when that comes out on your channel!

I’m liking what I’m seeing. A proper manual gear box! Those are hard to find these days. Yes, it is several thousand more than the Civic Si, but I think you get what you pay for. The seats are much nicer, it has a nicer suspension, and a better premium sound system. I have my eye on the apex blue with orchid interior. As always Joe, great video!

Beautiful color. Thanks for this great review 🙏🏼

24:23 I love Joe's on throttle laugh so much hahahahaha brings joy every time 🤣

I really like the exterior style. You're the best at reviews, Joe and Lori is great at getting it on camera!

Absolutely in love with this car, I do wish it had a panoramic sunroof !! But the practicality of the 5 door lift back the price and style this is going to be my choice

Fantastic review as always and just what I was looking for! I actually did a comparison between the '22 Gti and the Integra. Though both great driver's cars, the Integra has a nicer interior, better feeling shifter and let's face it far far better user interface. So yeah, Integra for the win. I only wish I could spec it with the blue and red interior, but instead I am ordering the same combo as in the video.

Excited to get the new Integra A-Spec! You and your wife Lori always putting together great content. Like many other car reviews, you're driving the car to its limit with the "on-throttle" burnouts and redlines. I'm assuming the engine doesn't have 1000 miles on them yet. Are break-in periods no longer required for modern day car engines??

Gorgeous car 😍. I was thinking in a Camry TRD next year but seen this review I definitely change my mind

Great review. I saw one the other day in person, exactly like the one you tested. Very nice in person. All these people complaining about why it doesn't have this or that....are you all smoking something? Look at that list price! It's an incredible value.

Excellent reviews, as always!

Great review, Joe! And nice camera work, Lori! Nice job showing the angles and creases in the body work, plus the finer details inside and out. I would buy this over a GLI any day. The GLI looks dated, I prefer the sportback design of the Integra, and Honda/Acura reliability means this car might just outlive me. I can’t wait to drive one of these!!

Just saw one at a dealer today and it looks so much better in person than in pictures. It is a really good looking car, even if it doesn't capture the nostalgia of the previous integras

Thank you so much for reviewing this!! I am totally getting this as my first car, the cvt version though 💯

Nice review. Consistent with what I expected: An upscale Si. Perfect.

Great review as always Joe and Lori! :D

Hi Jke! Love this Acura Integra it is a dandy. I think people would enjoy this peach of a vehicle.

Awesome review RR. I was so close to getting an all new Acura Integra till my wife saw the picture of one......

Hey Joe OG Supporter Here Been Here Since Before 100k. I Dont Always Comment But I Watch Every Video! Keep Doing You Joe!

I love it Joe and Lori and keep up the good work and I love the video lot real true 💯💯💯💯💯👍

Looks really good. I definitely would pick it over the VW. I wish it had a bit more HP maybe 250. I guess the type S may have more. I agree they should’ve used the info center from the RDX. Thanks Joe and Lori. Great job! 👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸

That's a lot of car for the money. Thanks for working so hard for us, Joe and Lori. You guys are the best in the biz.

I was behind one of these last Friday during my commute. I didn't know any of these made it to dealers yet. the rear end looks better in person than the pics.

Morning review ! 👍 Looks really good………love the interior dash area. Wow, that lift back area has tons of room !

Great videos Joe, love the hatchback but I would just save money and go with the si 🤷🏻‍♂️

Should have included a 9 speed automatic transmission as an option. The CVT is inappropriate for the new Integra

This car is growing on me, I need to see it in person. I'm glad it comes with red leather, a good stereo, and a stick. I have a Stinger, which I love the design of and love having a liftback. I also have a Mazda3 Hatch that love the styling of and purchased because I needed a manual shift car. I may ditch both for this if I can find it in that awesome blue color Acura makes, with a stickshift, and red leather interior

It's Integra tiiiiiiiime!!!! Let's gooooooooooooooooo!!!! Thank you for the review Joe and Lori!!! Not gonna lie, I was stoked when they said they were bringing back the name and even more so that it wasn't going to be a crossover SUV!!!

Acura has really had a styling renaissance of late after several years of boring designs. Love the Integra and the new TLX

It really tells you how great Joe & Lori are, when I watch the reviews for the cars that I hate.

Thanks, Lori for working the camera like a Champ!!!

55 Gallon Drum of Mayonaise LOL. Might get two in there. Love all that room. Gorgeous car inside and out. I come for the car reviews but the humor is what makes the difference. Joe hopefully you are enjoying our Austin hospitality. Cheers

Integra reviews flooded my youtube feed but you know I gotta click on Raiti's first!

Hopefully this keep the integra for a long time. Hope to buy one once I can afford it 😅

Joe how quiet is the new Integra on the inside of the vehicle while driving? I am a big fan of quiet cars and loving everything I see about this Integra! Thanks for bringing the goods to us week in and week out and being so enlightening AND entertaining.

The first few minutes of the video the background/buildings in the back has that futuristic vibe

Dang looks sick, hopefully I'll get one someday

Little things would’ve made this a home run, bigger sun roof, ventilated seats, rear passenger hvac vents.

I love your videos and your humor!

Fantastic review! Front and rear are sexy and sporty. The red interior does noting for me. Infotainment screen should be built into the dash…I agree with you Joe. Wish they upped the HP from the Civic Si

I wish the integgy was a coupe but it’s fine, at least they brought it back!

Excited for the type S, this one is a good entry level enthusiast manual for sure.

I used to think who needs a pano sunroof but then I got a rental that had one and everyyone that got in the car loved it and mentioned it so now a panoramic sunroof is mandatory for me personally.

love the review. thank you!! does this car take regular gas or premium?

I'd like to know how this compares to the Civic Si as well as how the 6MT is compared to the CVT. Sometimes I wonder if Lori is shaking her head for some of the stuff Joe says lmao

I'm seriously considering this car. And I love that it has a NAME. Integra! (Or any name!) So sick and tired of these RDX, RX, NX, ILX, MDX, UDX, TLX etc etc nonsense names.

the cinnamon roll joke made me laugh😂😂 great video as always !

I agree on your point about the DCT from the ILX, dunno why they ditched it.

Beautiful car, I'm kinda glad it's not a big hit with everybody, it should make the lease deal good when it comes time. I think some people think it doesn't have enough power, but who are they racing? I race the people at the stoplight to get the lane I want or get on the highway quick, and that car will do that every time.

Acura/Honda = bullet proof…imho (I’ve owned 2 Acuras loved them)

looks super clean!

Joe, NOT to shabby my good man....the front looks like it swallow ya up.....LOVE IT! LORI nice job as always. is that your car LORI? awesome color. good job you guys.

10:02 No way this is doing 0-60 in 6 seconds. At 150 lbs heavier than the Si it’ll be 7 if we’re lucky.

I'm just happy Acura is still making this legendary sedan, 4 doors and all.

love this video

Great way to start the morning. Awesome car and it’s really sharp looking.

I don’t know if it’s just me, but Mazda is going rwd. I feel it’s an important aspect of a premium car brand. Acura’s new lineup is amazing but the fwd overbite really tanks it.

I have a soft spot for VW and have always loved my GTI, but the GLI has languished for years now without significant changes keep it competitive. Even value brands have begun to rival it at lower prices. VW seems content to let it the Golf and Jetta languish into mediocrity as they shift focus toward making their entire North American lineup into EVs shaped like bars of halfway used soap. Meanwhile, Honda is intent on embracing the segment that VW is abandoning. This leaves the Jetta on shaky ground, and the Golf is already a memory unless you get one in GTI trim. VW should take a page from Honda and do something similar with the Jetta. Perhaps turn it into a liftback, like a small version of the Arteon, to more closely compete with the practicality factor and price range of the Integra and Mazda 3.

When you suggested that they should have included red stitching for the interior I was screaming "Yes yes yes why didn't they??" That was an absolute oversight especially considering the red seats.

I expected more HP/Torque ratio. I was expecting it to have at least 250HP...but the turbo helps out with the acceleration! I wasn't expecting it to leave tire spin marks on the street..😎👍🏿

Anyone else remember when a manual transmission vehicle would be less than the automatic option? now it seems any manufacturer that still offers a manual transmission has it as a 'no cost' option. obviously thankful some are still offering manual transmissions, but just interesting to see the way things have changed. #savethemanuals anyway, thanks for another great video Joe & Lori!! Looking forward to more! especially when you finally get to go on throttle with the new GR Corolla! edit: wish the Integra had an sh-awd option. One of the main reasons I'm leaning on jumping ship to toyota for the GR corolla!

I'm actually seriously considering these two cars. I've been driving GTI's for 25 years, so yes, I like VW and am probably biased. That said, I think the Integra is a much better looking car compared to the 2022 Jetta GLI, both inside and out. It's a classier car. But here's the problem: I've been driving stick all my life, and I want to continue with that. Here in Canada, it's about $12k more to get the 6MT Integra vs the 6MT GLI. Sure, there are some differences in the features: better sound system on The Integra, ventilated seats on the GLI. Slightly better handling in the Integra, slightly more hp in the GLI. I won't go on, but all in all, it kind of evens out to me. So, I don't know, man. I am just having problems justifying the extra $12k. I think because you have to go to the highest trim to get the manual in the Integra, the GLI comes down to being a better value. Going for a test drive in the Integra next week. Maybe I'll change my mind, lol.

Great video Joe! Hope you ran into other KZfaqrs like Car Confections and Kelly Blue Books guys and others

It’s not easy to get a smile out of Mighty Joe. This car is nice

Happy Acura Integra Party Joe

Was planning on waiting for the Integra but ended up buying a GLI - the fact that there's almost zero chance you can find one of these in the next year MSRP was the deciding factor. Just not gonna happen. Honda dealers here in So. Cal wouldn't even let me test drive one without agreeing to a 5K+ markup. F off.

Raitis rides has the best car reviews on KZfaq hands down 👍🏻

I can’t wait to see the mugen accessories. These custom builds will be insane

Love the review. I have an Integra reserved, and I need to know if I fit?!?!? I am 6'4" and my boy is about the same height (15 years old), will he fit? When you sat in the back seat, did you have the front seat pushed forward, in the middle, or all the way back? Height is a HUGE factor in my family, both leg room and head space.

Have to be honest. I watched the review in support of Team Raiti but as a 3 time Integra and CL Type-S 6 speed owner, I'm not at all excited about this release. The color combo is very nice though, so there's that. Was really hoping Acura would make me fall in love again. Happy for those that like this one.

Awesome Video Joe! Thank you! I have a question to ask you. What is your fascination with Twinkies? They are really not too healthy to eat! Lol! But I really do enjoy your video reviews! I love the Twinkies comments! It puts a smile on my face and makes me laugh! Rock On!!!

I really want one can’t wait to see how they are from customer reviews before I buy one but def will get one

VW GLI would be my choice. That 1.5 turbo is a killer for me. The GLI is from 2019, but the platform it uses is from 10 years ago, yet it still out preforms this car and has an amazing engine. Looks wise I prefer the GLI because it's pretty much an AUDIo

Love the review Joe. Do you think whenever they announce the type S, would it come with a 6 speed manual?

You have some of the best shifts i've heard in the integra

Would you recommend this over the upcoming 2023 Accord? I've been saving up and am having trouble deciding between this, the Civic Sport Touring, and the 2023 Accord.

Fantastic looking automobile. I really love the design of this car. Several weeks ago I purchased the Honda Civic sport touring. I was almost regretting that decision. But I cannot get my head around the CVT. Yes I have it in the Civic. But this car is 40.000. and I don't understand why someone would let their wife or daughters or wife and daughters set off in a car without a spare tire. Baffling. Throw the micro compressor away and call a tow truck that's what you're left with. And you could buy the spare and put it in yourself there's room for it. But you shouldn't have to at this price.

This car is a insult to everyone who ever owned a real integra... that's an ilx with corporate bs added in. Edit: you know the car is slow when he punches it and then only mentions how good the brakes are! Lol... not one mention of this ILX having any power at all.

Awesome car! I ordered one back on March 10th, hope it comes in soon!! Would have been nice to see just a bit more horsepower. Maybe like 240 horses and then 300 for the type R!!

Let's freaking Go and On throttle action at Austin, Tx!!!
