Best car I've ever owned

Review

I bought my Integra in '96 with 40,000 miles on it and have added 120,000 to it since. Outstanding car, always reliable. Looks great, drives great. I only had to have it towed once, and that was because of a mistake the repair shop made that morning (an a/c belt was installed improperly). It hasn't been without it's problems, but nothing unusual for the age of the car. I can jump in it and take a road trip without thinking twice. I'd buy another one in a minute.

Favorite Features

Styling (still looks great), handling, visibility (no blind spots!), and of course reliability. Seats are comfy but not luxurious (it's a small car). For normal street driving I use Michelins, and the last set lasted 60,000 miles, in AZ no less! In no small part due to the Integra suspension.

Suggested Improvements

Like others have said, cupholders. The two dimples on the lowered glove box lid just don't cut it. So I usually wedge my water bottle between the seat and e-brake, and it works fine. Could use a tad more HP in the non-VTEC model. Otherwise, the car is golden.

Review

I bought my car new. I've had no real problems w/my car. It's great to ride around in w/my three kids. It has great gas milage. I believe it had the nicest body style of all the integras. I am going to have it fixed even though its a older car, its worth it. Milage is only 142000 and running great with front damage. If I had a chance to buy another 1993 I will buy it immediatly.

Favorite Features

Body style and interior bucket seats are comfortable to drive long distance.

Suggested Improvements

I recommend abs brakes due to when I braked to avoid a car pulling out in front. I hit the brakes and it locked up.

I bought this vehicle new in 1993. I have had very few problems with it. The only problems that I have had have been normal maintenance. I would highly recommend it.

Review

This is my second Integra, I had a LS sedan that was so easy to maintain and very reliable. It took me forever to find a GSR that was not mod'd out with good mileage but finally found and I'm glad I got it. This car is so fun to drive and even with this car being more than a decade old it still turns some heads. Looks like I'll keep this one longer than my first. Highly recommended if you can find a cherry one

Favorite Features

The exterior looks better than alot of todays cars. Feul economy is saving me a good chunk of change. Handling and power is very good for this older car.

Suggested Improvements

Bring back this body style with cup holders. More reliable OEM paint, seems like a recurring problem with Honda/Acura cars. Whats up with those leaky head gaskets?
