The #AcuraIntegra is a powerful name among enthusiasts. When #Acura first announced the return of the #Integra name, it got a lot of hype due to its 25 year hiatus. The newest Integra has evolved into a much more sophisticated machine, but the basic formula is still there. Honda Civic bones with a more premium and mature feel. The #IntegraASpec adds more visual flair and its one of the very few vehicles in its segment to still offer a 6-speed manual transmission.

So we hear rumors that Acura is doing some Integra Type S prototype drives for media out in Japan next month and while the company has been quiet about the existence of the Type S, we expect an official announcement to happen before the end of the year. Are you guys excited for the higher performance variant?

I dont care WHAT these bozos say. I WANT that last of the last Type-S Manual transmission as it will probably be the final 'row your own gears' chance before every car manufacturer goes all electric by 2030+. And so before all these whiners and complainers know it, they will have missed their chance to get one for themselves and I will be laughing maniacally until my throat is sore while sitting in one, thank u very much~ Have a nice life!

Smart move , realistically the Integra is about the same as the Civic touring.

After looking for a 22/23 Si in Blue or Orange-and (never found Orange) but consistently finding Si @ 35 K-finding an Apex Blue 6MT Aspec Tech-and test driving it-sold me at 35K Tires and having to shift just before 60 gives a 7 sec 0-60- but the power is instantly available when driving-and it is quick. A few have gotten sub 7's-as fast as 6.6 with the traction turned ALL the way off ("pedal Dance").

Had it since early July. Surprisingly roomy interior (I'm coming from a Mazda 3 hatch); grainy backup camera, no 360-degree camera; gets amazing gas mileage (averaging just over 37mpg right now). I like the HUD quite a bit. Android Auto wireless integration is a bit buggy and wireless charging has been iffy (that could be the fault of my Pixel 6, not the car). Handling and cornering are just wonderful - it's so light it feels good to toss around corners. Overall a lovely car and it's turned more than a few heads (I got the blackout package on a black exterior).

They do need to quiet the car at highway speeds. Not loud but not luxurious compared to others in the segment. You get this car for the nostalgic name Integra, versatility of the hatch l, handling,and tech. Also 6 speed manual is wonderful. Wish had vents in back seat and dual clutch vs the cvt.

it's especially worth it over the Si currently being that a lot of dealerships are marking up the Si to be the same or more than the Integra. Even if it weren't for that, i think the extra is worth it. Looking forward to seeing what the type s will bring. it'd be amazing if it were sh-awd, but doesn't seem like there's a good chance for that. regardless, i'm looking forward to eventually replacing my Si for the integra!

At $38k, if it came with AWD, ( the one thing Acura puts down our throat, that the Acura brand are pushing to be), it would make sense. It would also give it uniqueness over the Si. There's not enough for me, to make me buy it over the Si. It's obvious that they brought back the Integra name because it's a powerful nostalgic connection of Acura of old. They know that new car buyers are more responsive to name, and social media promotion, more than the some of parts, when it's obvious that it's a ILX.

The ones on the lot are demo cars, not for sale. The Integra posted 1500 units per month consistently from its first month in June till September (1500 was the max allocation of the production line based on available chips). In October, they were somehow able to boost that to 2500 sales (sales = deliveries in the car industry, not orders). I think its doing VERY well compared to its competitors (look up CLA, 228 GC, A3, Jetta sales)

When you really think sensibly the CVT makes sense. This is an entry level model for people wanting a nice daily driver. A DCT would raise the cost and make things far too complicated and expensive to replace. Honda's CVTs are really good around town. I personally only have bought manual cars all my life, but if I was getting an auto, might as well get a Honda CVT because it was the best experience around town - super smooth, surprisingly quick response for a CVT and no head jerking that annoys me in conventional autos when they shift whenever they want.

Who’s interested in buying an Auto Integra? (Losers that’s who) I had a 96 Integra with a 5 speed as my second car. My wife had a 2004 RSX Type S (I wish we never got rid of the RSX Type S, I still get upset thinking about the day we traded in it for a 328 Xi) I would never buy a small car with an Automatic transmission. I also had a 2008 Honda Civic with a 5 speed manual. I’m looking to get the 6 speed MT for when my kids start driving. Those looking for automatic transmissions should look else where. I hate my 2008 and 2019 Acura MDX auto transmissions. Autos should be limited to heavy duty diesel trucks like my F-250.

If theType S has the 2 liter turbo with 335hp 301lb ft SH-AWD standard on this excellent Civic chasis with a properly sport tuned 10 speed auto and the manual as an option, I think hands down it would seriously give the S3 and the M240i a run for their money.

Beauty being in the eye of the beholder and of course, subjective, I find the car so plain Jane for an Integra. The prior generation model was so distinctive looking and even more so compared to this generic Asian car. An Acura that doesn’t even have rear A.C. vents. I don’t see any reason to go for the Acura for more money over the Honda version. Nonetheless, another great and thorough review. You got the format nailed down.

The Civic touring is an excellent car. The only reason to upgrade to an Integra would be the sportier tune and limited slip diff (and a manual trans if you want it) on higher end models, along with slightly nicer sound system. But if those things dont matter as much, theres no reason for you to change. The Integra does ride a little stiffer and has a bit more road noise (probably from the tires).

If you’ve never driven manual before but always wanted to and be forgiven this is the car for you. It’s comfortable, forgiving, and very rewarding. I had an 01 Integra and this new generation does carry some of that old Integra spirit over. Yes, it’s not a fast car, but it’s slow car fast/quick and it’s a lot of fun. Now I’m patiently waiting for my new 6 speed Integra to arrive in December! Thanks for the awesome review as always!

Just know that the 10-speed automatic in the Accord Touring 2.0T and the TLX/TLX A-Spec is never happening and the chances of the old ILX's 8-speed DCT going in the Integra Type S is a very slim one to not happening ever at all. For it to save money, it may just be manual-only just like the FL5 Civic Type R and if that's to be the case, I'll be perfectly happy of that as I drive a manual transmission now as my daily and would love to add a 2nd manual transmission car to my fleet. Anything missing in the Integra Type S like its competitors like heated and cooled seats, rear passenger vents, and whatever else may get put on the Integra Type S, but do expect the Integra Type S to be nearly identical to the price of the FL5 Civic Type R if anything. If you want the raw, visceral feel, you get the Honda. If you want the subtle, but still powerful with the nicer amenities and niceties and under the radar sleeper appearance, you get the Acura.
