That car is way better with the six speed manual, hell all cars are better with a manual transmission. I have three seventh gen Accords with the K24A and 5 sp manual transmissions. With almost a million miles between them they still run and drive excellent. I would love to step up to a RSX though, but it has to have a manual transmission. Great video, very informative, thanks a lot.

The exterior is gorgeous, easily Honda's best. but i actually like the integra/civic interior more...Considering i sit in traffic WAY more than i get to joy ride, the 10 speed automatic is so much more appealing than the Integra CVT trans. I cant justify a manual right now

@@Plague_Rat778 Always mind boggling how Acura can't just do a bit more than the bare minimum. SUVs are fine but ever since the TL went away it's been mostly downhill for the sedans. Luckily their is a Type S Integra but once again it's just a fancier Type R. Would have been neat if they made it AWD or so something more to differentiate it.
@Plague_Rat77821 күн бұрын
@ayushmalpeddi2793 Honestly, car manufacturers as a whole just don't seem to care anymore. They up price but rarely up the value. But, I'd personally take the integra A-spec with a manual over a civic si even if it is like $8k or so more. The difference in options is worth it to me.

One thing I like the most about this review is that, its not obsessed with paddle shifting. So many reviews with pov only just show how the car drives with just paddle shifters and not show enough how it responds day to day in a more likely situation in sport, sport + when it shifts by itself in auto mode. So far it looks like the transmission responds just fine in Sport + mode without it being in manual.
