Many of you will dislike this vehicle because of the price point. Is it an upscale civic? Well yes, which is not necessarily a bad thing for me. I had 2 civic si in the past (8th gen/10th gen) and loved both cars. I don't really do much upgrades enthusiast wise other than intakes and minor bolt ons. Integra I'm quite happy with it stock. I'm at the age where I'm not speeding 75 mph down a city road anymore and this car has plenty of ponies for my needs. Handling I've always loved honda handling but that's just my personal opinion. The car handles sporty for spirited occasional drive down the road during my commute. Has plenty of room to fit my road bike for my weekend adventures. Note that this review is from a late late 30s man with no spouse or kids so that opinion may change but I see no problem as far as room for that either. Overall I was in a position to keep riding a hybrid suv falling asleep while driving and had the chance to pay almost the same monthly for a more active fun drive. For this car I feel as 6mt is the only way to go, if not there are better options (not a cvt fan). Fits my finance, fits my pleasure in drive, fits my needs, looks good exterior and interior imo so that's that for my review.

Ok, I'll start this by first addressing all of the plebeian naysayers and automotive pundits that keep expressing disappointment over this car. This is the best Acura Integra ever. Period. I say this from my own storied and personal experience. I not only worked an Acura dealer from the late eighties until 2001, but have owned numerous Acuras and Hondas over the years. I have literally driven, or owned every gen of the Integra so my assessment is genuine. It is not to say that the Integra is perfect as it is not, but is is the best that Honda has yet produced. To set things right you have to start at the beginning. Integras have always been glorified Civics priced like Accords. That was always the conundrum for hardcore Honda/Acura buyers, the justification of paying Accord money for a car that was little more than a more sporty and gussied up version of the Honda Civic. The lines have always been blurry, but the Integra always seemed to snag the youth segment and in its glory days when modding was all the rage it was simply a really cool little car to own. Aside from the old Type R and new Type S, it never was and still isn't fast. It is a car for those that want a something a little sharper and upscale than a car like the Civic. An intended stepping stone into a more premium brand and to that end it meets it goal, mostly. Today's Integra is light years better than the sad two gen old Civic based ILX that it replaces. That said, Honda cheated the new Integra just a bit when it comes to interior refinement. The rest of the car works well. It is quick and handles quite well. Noise levels aside, it is generally comfortable especially with the A-Spec Tech's adjustable dampeners. On road noise, my daughter's 2011 Mazda 3S is quieter and being that Mazdas were not considered to be very quiet cars in those days so that's a huge hit against Acura given their intended upscale intent. All of that said, it is the interior that offers the most disappointment. They simply did not properly finish the inside of this car. It's like they got half way through the cabin and either lost interest, or thought that nobody would notice the cheapness that takes over, especially after you go past the front seats. Soft touch materials give way to hard plastic. Contrast accented seats with suede inserts give way to mono-colored vinyl. While the front accommodations might fall just a little bit short of expectations, the rear quarters are simply an unacceptable disappointment. Completely austere with only an armrest and USB-C ports for comfort. No rear seat vents, or accent lighting. Nothing truly premium whatsoever in its final execution. If there is one place where the Integra's excessive price argument can be made, it is in interior and especially the back seat. That is a shame because, in the end, if they had gotten that right I think that most reviews both herein and elsewhere in the auto press would have been quite a bit more positive. It is a nice car. The best Integra to date, but this Acura deserved a better interior and Honda should have done better in their final execution. Moving on, Acura is trying to cash in on that same youth based enthusiasm of yesteryear. While modding is not what it once was, there are quite a few performance companies out there that will let a new Integra owner's imagination run wild to their heart's content. So if the performance of a stock Integra is not good enough then there are mods out there for you. For the rest of us, it is simply a decent, sporty car with just enough flair to almost be worth it and that is where the rub comes in. The price. Adjusted for inflation the new Integra is right in line with all of the previous gen cars. Asking if it is really worth about $6000 more than a nearly identical Civic is like asking if an Audi A3 is really worth that much more than a VW GLI, or a BMW 2 Series Gran Coupe is worth that much more than a Mini Clubman and so on. It comes down to the aesthetics involved when considering ownership of a premium brand car. It comes down to personal preference. That said, I bought this Integra because while I was trying to step down from a '21 TLX, I was not really wanting to loose all of the panache of owning an Acura. Was it worth it? I'm still figuring that out, but do keep circling back to the fact that the Integra, in its own right, is a nice car and given its intended competition such as the aforementioned Audi and BMW, it is worth the price of admission. Do I regret not spending less and getting a Civic? No way, but do I regret not spending the same and getting a new Accord Touring Hybrid? While that may be a tougher question, just as it was years ago. I chose the sportier, more engaging car of the two and from that standpoint alone I have no regrets and if something edgier than an everyday Honda is more appealing to you then Integra may be right for you, as well.

The car is a really fun car to drive! It’s packed with a ton of tech compared to my previous sedan. The red interior is super sharp and very comfortable. I’m giving three stars due to the fact that my car is having two fairly big issues. The first one involves the fuel tank filler neck. The car is throwing a code indicating a malfunction with the fuel evaporation sensing component in the filler neck. Parts are on backorder with no definitive repair date insight. This issue causes the vehicles revmatch function to be inoperative. That in and of itself is really no big deal as I have driven manuals my whole life without revmatch and managed just fine. The second issue is a malfunctioning auto-up window function on the drivers side window. This is a very recent issue and the car is headed to the dealership soon to be addressed. These two issues on a four month old, historically uber-reliable auto vehicle line is really unacceptable.
Goldilocks would love the Integra, it's just right

I'm in my 50's and I've done the go fast sports cars that have harsh rides and shift it yourself transmissions. I wasn't quite ready to dig up a good used Lincoln Town Car as I still wanted something playful and fun to drive that was also comfortable and got great fuel mileage. Ah! The Honda Civic would fit the bill...and I love the practicality of a hatchback...oh look...Honda makes the Civic in a hatchback. Oooh...and it has a Bose stereo. Nice. Hey Mr. Honda Salesperson...what's your best price on that Civic Hatchback Sport Touring. Huh? What do you mean MSRP of $37,000? I thought they were $33,000 MSRP, and I'm expecting a deal. Huh? Protection package? Market adjustment? Window tint? Lojack? But I don't want those things? What? They can't be removed? Can you sell me one that doesn't have all those additions? Oh, you don't have any that haven't been accessorized. Gotcha. Same day at the Acura dealer. Mr. Acura salesman, how much is this car? Oh..sticker price of $38,000. Ok. It has really nice red suede seats with adjustable lumbar. WHOA! This 16 speaker stereo blows the Bose in the Civic away. This electronically adjustable suspension is nice too. You sure you can't make me a deal? Oh? You have a CPO with 4500 miles on it...and it has an extended warranty to 100,000 miles? Really? How much? $36,000. No add ons? No "market adjustments"? Wow! Complementary loaner cars from the service department? Cool! You're tossing in complimentary all weather mats and 3 years of AcuraLink too? Thank you! Anyone who says the Integra is just an expensive Civic hasn't shopped the two cars. I have multiple Honda dealers in my area and ALL of them were marking up the Civic Hatchback almost to what an Integra costs. Having driven both, I can tell you the Integra is a much nicer car and the dealer experience is light years better. I really love my Integra. It's exactly what I wanted. Really fun to drive, rides nice...but not too nice. Still very engaging to drive. The CVT doesn't suck. Yes, I said it. I actually like it. No hunting for gears or constant shifting. Always seems to be giving me what I want when I want it. If you want "gears" it will emulate a 7 speed transmission with the paddles. And it "shifts" pretty quickly. It's fun to hustle it down a twisty back road. No...it's not "fast". It's got adequate power. Doesn't feel slow. Little 1.5L turbo is a torquey engine. It never struggles and you can hit triple digits faster than you think. It's not winning any races, but that's not what it's designed for...want that? Get the Type S. Oh...and I'm getting about 34mpg in mixed driving and can get nearly 40mpg on interstate trips at 70mph. The seats are very comfy. There is plenty of room. The hatchback is wonderful even if the lift over is a little higher than it should be...I don't really mind it as I'm tall. If you're looking at a high spec Civic. Stop by a few Honda dealers and try to work a deal...then go see your local Acura dealer (if you have one) and you will have a completely different experience. ***UPDATE 7/8/24*** 7 months into ownership and about 10,000 miles and the car is still a joy to own. I did have one issue. The steering rack needed to be replaced as it developed a notchy/sticky feeling. It's a known issue and my dealer got me squared away quickly. No other issues. Car is getting excellent fuel mileage. If I drive it easy, I can see up to 41mpg. Mixed driving without hypermiling, I'm getting about 35mpg. That's excellent!

Finally, I bought a car with a red interior! I've always wanted one and, well, I made it happen. Originally I was interested in the A-Spec Tech M/T but they are hard to come by in NE Ohio. It would take weeks to wait for one and, I assume, would require me to pay full MSRP. But the night before I bought it I test drove a 2023 WRX Limited with M/T, my second choice. After ten minutes of driving and talking with the salesman I thought--do I really want an M/T for my daily driver? No. I don't. (Sure, if I buy a second, used, fun car to drive infrequently I'd get an M/T.) Once I realized I could do without the M/T, I then looked at the A-Spec and compared it to the A-Spec Tech CVT. I decided I was OK with the less expensive model especially if I no longer wanted the M/T. All the safety features from the Tech model are included with the mid-level trim as well as the A-Spec exterior upgrades. I didn't even test drive the black and white A-Spec Tech CVT they had on the lot--blissful ignorance. The dealership had a Carbon metallic with red interior A-Spec and I was sold from the moment I saw her. I negotiated what I think is a great price and the dealer added the wireless charger as part of the deal. She drives fine. Would 25 or 50 more horsepower be nice? I guess. Before I left the dealership one of the salesman talked me through the car's features. He has an A-Spec Tech M/T and confessed that the novelty of the M/T wore off after about a month. We're both fifty-something and, well, driving with a M/T is a bit too much work. We have other priorities. She's too new for me to claim that I love her but from what I know right now, this one's just right.
