Whether you call this a Honda or an Acura there is one thing that about the Integra that stands out for mile and that is this is a car that has been around for a very long time. In fact, its total production run started in 1985 and ended in 2006 there are not many models that can claim that amount time in production. It survival is down to the brand evolving over time in fact there are four generations of the Integra.
If there is one about the Honda Acura Integra it has to be choice, there is the standard four door sedan and the sportier three door hatchback, a choice of either a 1.6 litre or 1.8 litre engine and a four speed auto or five speed manual gearbox! They say choice is good, but for the buyer of pre-owned cars these options can play havoc on the price and resale value, so this where care and attention is required.
We are talkin
The Integra is like a car with dual personalities, in some places it goes under the brand Honda Integra, while in others such as the USA it goes under the brand of Acura Integra, this may sound confusing but at the end of the day it is merely a name and the cars are the same. What made the Integra so successful is the versatile nature of its design, there is a three door hatchback and the four door sedan, so there is something for everyone!
As we know, the Acura Integra is basically a rebranded Honda, the name is more or less the only difference and it is determined where you live as to whether you get a Honda or an Acura Integra. But for the original buyer there was a few choices to be made such as, between the classic four door sedan or the more sporty looking three door hatchback, which is what the project featured is actually based on.
When it comes to
The Acura Integra or Honda Integra depending on where you are located, is a serious attempt by Honda to mass produce a compact sports coupe, it was a two car with front wheel drive and despite being compact could easily carry four passengers. This is probably one of the main reasons why this car was in production for over twenty two years in total, with four generations to choose from, this car adapted to consumer demand.

The Acura Integra is a wonderfully strange mash up of cars that has turned up in many markets around the world, although it may not necessarily have the Acura or come to think of it the Integra branding either. It could be a Honda or even a Rover, but whatever the badges and logos say underneath this is basically a Honda Integra, which as you expect offers buyers plenty of options.
But this is the US version and therefore it is ba
As anyone who knows anything about the Acura TSX or Honda Accord, depending on where you are located from the mid 2000’s will know that these cars were not the sort of car that a young sporty type would be giving a second glance too. However, Honda did bring out some interesting variations on the model, such as the Accord Euro R this car brought a touch of sports car to the Accord, but the Acura did not get this treatment.
The NSX is one of those cars that you either love or hate and makes no difference if it comes under the Honda or Acura branding either, it is a mid engine two door sports car, the NSX runs a 3.0 litre V6 engine that is producing an acceptable 290 HP. Yet despite being in production for around fifteen years this NSX is something that appeals to only a certain type of driver.
To find the origins of the NSX you would have to go back to t
This is the 2004 model of the Acura RSX Type-S, but of course, this car now has hardly any resemblance to the original car that rolled off the production in 2004! Having been stripped out and modified into the racing style. This makes for a great looking car that has a look of production car but has been built into something almost completely original and that takes some doing.
The first t
At almost twenty years old this Acura Integra looks as good now as it did when the current and only owner David Chick drove it out of the dealership, but back then the car must have has a slightly different look and feel to it. This is the California dream put into four wheels with a touch of import builder’s imagination thrown in for good measure.
The car came in two body choices, the
