2025 Acura Integra Consumer Reviews
Pricing
I never wanted a Honda Civic Si
I bought an Integra A-Spec with the Tech pkg and CVT. The reviewer makes constant references to the Civic Si and focuses the extreme performance specs. I’d get thrown in jail for reckless driving if I drove like the reviewer with my foot mashed on either the brake or gas pedal. The Integra is not a racecar. But it is, however, well balanced and is a pleasure to drive. Driving it reminds me of my old Mini Cooper S Coupe except with a better ride. I bought the Integra because it is loaded with safety equipment. Also, the exterior styling is better than the Honda Civic Touring and it comes with an extra year of warranty. My favorite feature is the adaptive cruise control used in combination with the lane keeping and braking assist. When used together, the car drives through the worst freeway traffic jams by itself. Anyone that is buying this car because it has the same engine as a Honda Civic Si is missing the point.

Unfortunate Oversights
Great gas mileage and the turbo makes for rapid acceleration as needed! I like the Apple Car Play too. However, in the technology package, this car does not have Home Link buttons - to program your garage door or gate. So you either have to carry a 1980s looking remote control on the visor or download an APP you then have to try to open as you drive closer to home. Also the key fob doesn’t open the hatch, only unlocks it and there is no way to open the hatch from the cabin. So if you do any curb side pick up, you have to unlock then physically open the hatch. Irritating in the rain for sure. There are several blind spots while driving but the technology package does have sensors on the side mirrors that help. I’m disappointed in Acura on this one. I was anticipating the fun of my prior RSX with modern upgrades , but too many basics were left out.

Great all around hatch!
Traded in a 2019 Honda Accord 2.0T. Best car I've ever owned. An acceleration beast with a 14 second quarter mile. With that as a trade-in, the Integra cost me about 3K. However, the Accord couldn't accommodate my road bike, the occasional flea market purchase, or large, bulky items. The Integra has the versatility of an SUV, the handling of a sports car and the fuel economy of a hybrid. Loved my 1991 Integra 3 door hatch so much I preordered the 2023 A-spec without even a test ride. Have 2200 miles on this one and can't say enough good things about it. While it is not the acceleration beast the 2.0T with the 10 speed trans Accord was, the Integra does everything you ask of it. The handling, even with 235/40-18 all season tires is excellent! Others claim it needs summer tires but that just wouldn't work in the northeast and I can't imagine how much better they could make it. The ride, especially over bumps, is as good as, if not better than the Accord. Can't believe on four highway-only trips mileage averaged between 38 and 44! mpg on comfort mode with cruise set at 73. That dropped to 33 mixed city/highway on sport mode. All with regular fuel. It's roomier, thousands less expensive, and offers more standard features than the Benz CLA and Audi A4. Why buy a German that's less reliable, requires premium fuel and is much more expensive to maintain unless your small "ego" needs that kind of status symbol? Neither of those offer a hatch and you're saddled with 4 wheel drive whether you need it or not. I got through all kinds of snow with my previous Integra and I expect nothing less with the 2023. If you need to compete with other hot hatches in the rally circuit, wait for Acura to build the Type S. The only thing they would need to do is throw in their 2.0 turbo. If not, this one is an all around winner in its own right.

What a fun car!
I love my 2023 Integra A-Spec manual with tech. I chose the platinum white pearl and so happy with my choice. This car gets a lot of looks and sounds pretty good. It’s powerful and responsive. The ELS 3D Surround Sound is class leading for a car in this price point. I considered BMW, Lexus, and Audi as options, but after driving the Integra and comparing prices, I’m happy with my choice. So far not one complaint! This gem does everything it should and does it well.

The Little Charmer
Fun to drive, fuel efficient, and surprisingly comfortable (both in terms of seating and ride compliance). I was looking at the GTI and other cars that cost much more money, but randomly decided to test-drive the Integra. What an amazing little car. Plus, the lift back gives it a shocking level of usable space given its size. An automatic Honda Civic Si in a tuxedo -- sign me up!
