99 integra ls 2d automatic
I absolutely love this car, it is right on so many levels! It is sporty, good-looking, reliable, versatile, fuel-efficient, and safe. Even though mine has the basic 1.8L b18b1 engine without vtec, it roars when you force down the pedal and those revs soar up. For a high-revving engine the low-end torque is great, I had to haul over 150 pounds of plywood in the trunk and it never quit. I bought it at 94k miles and im at 122k miles now and its still tight as a drum. Since I bought the car 2 and a half years ago, the only things that have went wrong and needed to be replaced were the speakers and a tail light. Upkeep has been about $1,300 since I bought it, due required services at 100k miles.
Not satisfied for the money
My experience was fun to drive if your speeding around wasting gas, but lacking in fun to drive if you are carrying passengers or taking a trip longer than an hour.

1999 GS-R
I got my GS-R hatchback with 25K miles and sold it close to 70K. The 1.8L VTEC truly is one of the finest engines ever. Tons of revs, lots of high end power, usable torque, good exhaust note and excellent fuel economy (35 mpg on the highway). My paint was black and as long as you kept it clean and waxed it once a year, there were few cars that looked better. I loved that it came with a spoiler, something that has eluded many cars I have owned before and after this one. The shifter of course was precise, smooth and near effortless. My only problems were 2, count 'em, 2 bad clutch master cylinders, probably the way I drive. :)
Dedicated Acura Owner
I bought an Acura Integra GS-R and have owned it for 9 years. It has been extremely reliable, fun, and great gas mileage. It doesn't have a lot of power off the line, but the V-TEC kicks in around 3500 and you feel it! The back is very limited in leg room, but you can fit 2 (short) adults in back in a pinch. I have done regular maintenance, and the only thing that has failed on the car was a cracked radiator (driving from Phoenix to Tucson in July). It's a great car for younger drivers, but is safe and reliable for long trips.
Pretty good car
I bought this used with 18,500 miles. It is a very reliable car - so reliable it is the third one that have I pur- chased. It is very small for carrying passengers, but with the convenience of it's hatchback,it is great for hauling things around. The drivers seat could be more comfortable with more padding. Interior is not as plush as earlier models. Lots of road noise.
2 Dr GS-R Hatchback
Excellent car overall. Still could use a little more horsepower. Pretty fast (0-60 in about 7.2 sec, top speed over 120 mph), but not overwhelmingly so. Only fifty to seventy horsepower more would put it in the upper class of sports cars. VTEC engine lacks a bit in low-end torque, but does very well at higher rpm (over 3500). Redlines at 8000 and peaks in HP around 7200 - 7500 rpm. The engine is very happy pushed hard between 4000 and 7000 rpm. Overall the Integra GS-R is a solid, well built, and fun to drive car. The car has been very reliable. Only repair in over 65,000 miles is a power antenna that gave out. Pretty much bulletproof.
Nice Whip
Just bought a 99, and I have been impressed with its handling, from suspension to transmission. Michelin tires do definitely leave something to be desired. Car drives like new and looks great.
99 LS
I bought this car new in 1999. It's the best car I've ever owned! I've had it 11 years, it has 90,000 miles and knock on wood - keeps on running!
excellent
I have a '99 Gsr, and i suggest everyone should have one. From reading articles to personally driving the car myself, compared to the preludes gsr's are 10x better. My own personal experience and the things i do to improve my ride as a car enthusiast. This car is worth keeping for years to come
1999 GS-R Coupe
Wow, what a car. I took the gs-r out on a 3 hour road trip the other day and it was like riding in a hungry jungle cat. The integra seemed to devour the road and the cars in front of me. Mine is pretty much stock, and it's a blast to drive. I can't wait to add a few "goodies" to it.
Bulletproof
After 45,000 joyful miles, i'm happy to report that I haven't had a single problem with this car, not one, and I drive the car in a spirited manor. These cars are bulletproof. What makes it even greater is that I leased it, and agreed on an end of lease purchase option in the initial contract. The lease is up soon, and the true market value of the car is $4000 over the agreed purchase price... VERY LITTLE DEPRICIATION!!!
Great Car
Fun to drive, fast , great handling, the most reliable car Ive owned.
GREAT
LOVE IT would not trade it for anything in the world. :0) Yeah
1999 Acura Integra GS Hatch Manual
This is an outstanding used car. I bought it at 154,000 in 2014 and am so impressed with the solid transmission and engine. Cosmetically it is quite weathered. Clearcoat peel. This one had some water infiltration into the hatch thru the tail light gaskets but this was easily fixed. Very low seat for this old guy to climb in and out of but decent front leg room for tall people. Don't expect to transport full-sized people in the back seats! Super solid used car. Zippy and nimble. Fun to drive. I recommend it.
I like the car, not the insurance
Nothing but pure bliss. I hate paying insurance.
Fun to drive and own
Exceptional car performance/value. Great handling. Great acceleration at high speeds. Awesome looks and features.
The Fabulous GSR
I've had this car for a year now and have had no problems until now. The engine is burning oil at the rate of about a quart a month. Fortunately I had been planning to do an engine rebuild before I realized the motor actually needed it. I bought the car with 72,000 miles on it so there could have been significant abuse to the engine prior to me owning it. Even still, I love my car and I plan to keep it forever. Overall it's a great car.

This is a great, fun car to drive. It accelearates quickly, corners well, and looks great. I have had no problems with the car since I bought it from the dealer.
Cheap BMW
Love my Integra to death. Incredibly reliable car, never given me a single problem, extremly well built. Performance is astonishing, this car is quick for the price. Dont Pay attention to the 140HP, this car is so lightweight that it feels like it has an extra 20HP. Great handeling, corners perfectly and very minimal body roll (then again my car is on coilovers so...) Great car practically lasts forever if maintained properly you will not regret it!
Awesome car but a few problems
I got the car with ~72k miles on it and It ran fine. Shortly after, I needed to get my B-pipe replaced. I got the 65k maintenence check and it cost $800 mainly because they had to replace a "frozen" brake caliper. After about a year, the hatch and the door started started sticking and I needed a driver's side and hatch door actuator. After that, the passenger window motor started dying so it stops a fraction of an inch before its actually shut. Yes the car is a blast to drive, and maybe I just got a problem child, but I can't say that I've had a very good GSR experience.
Absolutely great car
I have never owned a better car and in 2 years ive owned a total of 9. This car has not given my a single problem, the exterior design is one of the best that Acura has ever conceived. The interior ergos are near perfect, seats are very comfortable and the fuel economy is simply awesome! I can get close to 40 mpg on the highway. I will always own Acuras, I had volkswagens that were NIGHTMARES, this car is perfect. Highly recommended. The only minor complaint i have is with the stock sound system, The clarity is very good but the overall bass isnt the greatest. However im changing the stereo out anyway.. Other then that, I swear by Acuras
GSR get one!!
Bought this this preowned and been a reliable and great economy on the Gas. The insurance is another story. This a popular car for tuners as well. Basic bolt-ons yield big results. This is my 4th integra. Will buy another Acura!!
Fun 2 Drive
Its a great car. You'll want to drive it everyday. Get an integra while you can.
Sporty and reliable
I love tegs a lot. this is actually my second integra. i had a 98 gs earlier, and this one is just as good. love the styling of the car. great for college kids and single people. not recommended for use as a family car. parking is easy with this car, especially here in NYC. Love it!!!

strong build fun to drive no problems yet

Acura's Amazing Sports Car!
Owning the car was a delight from the beginning. Everyone seems to love the car the minute they get into it. Ever since the first time i drove the car i knew it was the one for me!
Zoom Zoom!
Wow! This car is just plain fun to drive! A true reasonably priced sports car. The car handles well, has great acceleration - it's a Honda. The AC is ice cold, heat is also great. The leather seats are soft, but give you the support you need while driving. The engine revs and begs to be pushed.
An American Compact would have broke!
This isn't the best car on the market but for reliability and fun to drive at a reasonable price this car is second to none. I have owned it for three years and anything American at this price would have been an unreliable rattle trap by now (based on how I drive it). The GSR is solid and quick enough to get around without guzzling gas. Not impressed with Acura service but it doesn't spend much time in the shop. I am looking forward to many years/miles of trouble free flogging in the future.
Teggy
Have had the car for about 4 years now. The only money I had to put into it besides regular check ups was a completely new set of brakes, which the old set wore out at about 80,000 miles. Quick acceleration, fun and easy to drive. Not the best stock paint job but I can live it with. I really enjoy my integra and am glad I purchased it.
