Author's Product Rating: 50 Recommended: Yes 
Pros: 9000RPM, 2600lbs, .91g Cons: Theft risk, steering wheel feels cheap The Bottom Line: I love to drive. I often take the longer route just for fun. If you're like me and cannot afford an S2000, get a type R.
I recently has to sell my 2002 S2000 to have more dough in my bank account. In my quest to find a cheaper car that could have the same steering, shifting, lateral grip and 9000RPM limit, there was only one choice: the type R. Now I know owners are ... read more

Author's Product Rating: 10 Recommended: No 
Pros: A lot of standard amenities other cars in the same class offered as options Cons: Below-par reliability and high repair costs coupled with frequent dealer trips for repairs The Bottom Line: Observe very carefully this car. Avoid high mileage. Get an extended warranty that's worth something.
I bought a 1999 Acura Integra LS coupe in 2002. It had relatively low miles on it as a used car. It was nighthawk black pearl, had the tan leather interior, and a spoiler. My Integra was repeatedly in the shop. I maintained good relations with the Acura ... read more

Pros: Stylish, reliable, safe, fun to drive. Cons: Get good tires for winter driving or you'll wind up like me! The Bottom Line: I would definitely recommend this car to anyone that wants a sporty and reliable vehicle to drive around. It's been a pleasure to own.
I bought my car used two years ago and have had nothing but wonderful experiences with it. It especially proved itself recently when we were involved in an accident the day after christmas. The roads were icy and we slid into a ditch and wound up ... read more

Author's Product Rating: 50 Recommended: Yes 
Pros: Outstanding engine, nimble handling, styling has aged well, very reliable Cons: Outdated interior, weak stereo, stock tires are terrible The Bottom Line: A fun-to-drive coupe with an outstanding motor, nimble handling, good fuel economy, and great styling. Smokes the competition in every way.
I'll start by saying this is one of the best cars I've ever owned. I purchased a GS-R coupe, which is the performance-oriented model with the DOHC VTEC engine and 5-speed manual. The engine is the highlight of the car. It has very good power for ... read more

Author's Product Rating: 50 Recommended: Yes 
Pros: Abundant after-market, good quality, sporty feel, excellent resale value Cons: Thin paint, OEM tires dangerous The Bottom Line: Reliable transportation that will last if you keep up with the maintenance schedule. If you are looking for more, be prepared to invest a little time and money.
I have owned my GS-R since the middle of 1999. It has been used for daily driving in addition to numerous autocross and track events. Through very hard (NOT abusive) driving, it has held up remarkably. The availability of high quality after-market ... read more

The Bottom Line: Overall this is a good strong car, and if you can find one at cheap price, I think you will be satisfied.
I owned a 1999 Acura Integra GS for a little under a year, until it was stolen in front of my apartment in Los Angeles, CA. The car proved to be reliable and solidly built.
Appearance--
The Acura Integra is sleek and sporty. ... read more

Pros: Honda quality and depenability Cons: Weak engine, VTEC is useless The Bottom Line: THe usual, Japanese Rice
Sure, you can get yourself a nice, little Acura Integra, but you will be in for a shock. The 170hp GS-R engine is a joke. This Honda famed "VTEC" is almost nothing but hot air.
VTEC only activates at higher RPMs, which gives the engine a ... read more

Pros: Nice transmission, great interior Cons: Small back seat
I have had a chance to drive and ride in a 1999 Integra LS for a while now. Although it has a smaller engine than most would like, it still has enough guts to beat people of the line. With a few hundred dollars in modifications, it could be a real ... read more

I've had my Integra LS Coupe since March of '99, and after a year and a half of day to day driving, I concluded that I had logged enough hours to write a through, accurate review.
A little bit of history: I had gotten the new car bug back in ... read more
