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!

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.

Not even close to luxury car

This was my 8th Acura. Acura cars were meeting the expectations and always felt as you are driving a good car. Not the new Integra. The price went up significantly and car deteriorated at the same rate. New Integra is very hard in driving. You can feel every smallest bump on the road and crossing a railroad track is a torture. it is missing some very basic features like Home Link, seat memory and many many many other. The interior has nothing to do with luxury. I could not handle all these changes and got rid of the car.

Buy a civic instead

This car was a huge disappointment. Everything about it is cheap. The stereo quality is awful, the ride is extremely rough even for a “sportier” car. I’ve had a few issues with the tailgate leaking water. This car is just a big let down and I wish I could return it. I drove it for three days and liked my 2017 Honda civic exl better.

absolutely horrible junk

I wanted this car tremendously since it came out and it was an absolutely horrible choice. I cannot recommend strongly enough to avoid the new Integra and probably Acura as a whole at this point. I have owned and been a daily driver for 6 Acura vehicles and 1 Accord since 2010 and I'm pretty sure these new Integra's must be secretly made by Kia or Nissan or maybe Alfa Romeo because literally within the first week it became apparent this car is garbage. The interior POPS and CRACKS and RATTLES and just makes so much noise constantly that if you don't keep the stereo on blasting, the symphony of noise generated from the interior is a PTSD inducing event. This car sounds like its 25 years old. The popping and cracking of the plastic started immediately. I have seen other commentors state they thought this was perhaps the noise of the interior components 'settling'. Stupidly, at first I thought the same thing despite it being perhaps less than logical as the car obviously didn't just come off the factory floor. The interior popping and cracking plastic noises continue to this day 8 months later, just as loud and aggressive and concerning as ever. I cannot have friends or family in this car because it's embarrassing. There's rattle from the driver seatbelt anchor constantly. The seat doesn't actually really feel like it's properly connected to the floor really. It doesn’t bother me from a comfort perspective, which is noteworthy because I have chronic pain issues, but the seats don’t really seem to have much substance to them at all – it sort of feels like one of those beach chairs where it’s just a piece of fabric attached to a frame at top and bottom. BOTH keys (both with new batteries I have replaced TWICE in 8 months) start the car only about 75% of the time. The rest of the time, you press the button and the car just beeps at you. SOMETIMES a message appears on the screen informing that the key needs to be touched to the start button to start the car because of no doubt abysmal quality. Most of the time when the car doesn't start, the car doesn't advise of the issue at all and just beeps at you stupidly wondering why it's the third time this week my 2024 Acura won't even start. The passenger front door has a wildly loud rattle over anything less than perfect road surfaces which often sounds as if there's a handful of screws or bolts just kinda rolling around in there and I've read at least one other report where a customer stated in fact that was exactly the issue. Now, the noise is beginning on the driver side door as well. Wireless carplay functionality is poor as the car and the phone frequently fail to connect and after one sits in the car restarting both the car and the phone multiple times and it still won't connect, it's time to just give up and forget it about. Hopefully I can maybe download some music to a usb stick because as mentioned before, driving this car without the stereo on makes me cry because it rattles like a 2001 mustang convertible. In fact, the stereo is the best part about this car. If you're considering the new Acura Integra, please be aware you're spending 40 grand on a rolling stereo. That's it. Speaking of noise, this is rather miniscule but apparently super emblematic of the entire Integra experience. When you start the car (IF IT STARTS) a cool little Acura/ Integra graphic thing displays on the speedo area and the car makes a sort of digital noise signature. It sounds cool, someone said it’s reference of something from a video game. Sometimes, instead of the correct noise, the car makes an alternate noise which basically sounds like someone dragging an empty beat up tin can through a dry gutter. Why this happens I have no idea and I would be shocked if anyone at Acura did either. Another cheap glitch in this low quality garbage car. The recall (apparently there might be another one in the works - I think they should just recall the entire car at this point I would rather drive a 2014 ILX any day of the week) is impossible to get addressed because no Acura dealers have the parts. In fact, it's not possible for me to get any of the issues on my car addressed because the location where I purchased it is about 3 hours away from where I live and the Acura dealers in Orlando want nothing to do with this car (nor do I at this point!). And perhaps, most egregious of all, the Acura dealership experience... WOW. THINGS ARE BLEAK IN 2025. My last personally owned Acura was a TSX and I have taken that car to probably at least 5 different Acura dealers and always was treated like a king. The post sales response across the board has been pathetic. This proposed merger of Honda and Nissan is making so much sense because clearly Honda's plan is to sell junk cars going forward and offer customers no support. Acura corporate has never responded to my concerns, but they have sent me several emails to take a survey letting them know how my experience was. I (stupidly, in the early days of having the car when I still somewhat liked it) attempted to have an accessory part installed at AutoNation Acura Orlando and possibly see if they could investigate some of the other concerns outlined above and JUST WOW. The inefficiency, lack of care, or concern, or intelligence and engagement at this dealership is abysmal. I think they might be run by AT&T actually, the customer service experience is very similar. AutoNation Acura Orlando also let me know the chance of ever having a service loaner from this dealership is literally about zero. Also, they broke a piece off the side mirror position selector switch on the drivers door while I was at this dealership for over an hour waiting for them to NOT install the part I had purchased, and not even bother to wash the car since I was waiting all that time for nothing. I attempted to work with another Acura dealer which is over an hour away from my house and was informed about the lack of parts for the current recall, that service loaners are not provided for recalls anyway (???) and that yes, for the other potential issues on my car, the opportunity of a service loaner is slim to none. I have rarely before been so comprehensively disappointed by a product which is new, and from a company with a fairly bullet proof reputation. It seems Honda Acura no longer cares about making quality vehicles OR taking care of customer issues so I'll make sure no one in my family or my circle ever considers a Honda product again. I look increasingly forward on a daily basis to the (hopefully very soon) day when it will make financial sense for me to offload this junk mobile.
