Great Car, Great Car Company

Aug 07 '00 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Great 2-door coupe
Cons: Acceleration slow at high speeds.

Handling on the Integra GS-R is quick with acceleration excellent in the lower gears. Unfortunately things begin to peak out in moving from 90-125, but this is a minor quibble. With the rear-spoiler standard in GS-R, handling is great at high speeds, and...

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Fast, fun reliable and affordable
Cons: Backseat is small, perhaps lacking a bit of personality

My little baby loves to drive. She likes quality gasoline and open highways. Sometimes she is a little moody, but she never complains. This is a wonderful car. It literally has a little of everything. It's quick and responsive, while not burning...

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Honda reliability, great styling, great handling, great gas-mileage.

The Bottom Line: This is a great car, it has proven me excellent reliability, excellent economy, excellent handling, and excellent looks.

I bought this car brand new in 1997 after thorough searching for a car. It is a safe, practical, reliable, yet wont put you to sleep type of car. Those were the reasons I chose to buy this car.

My car now sits a 82,000 miles...

Best Bang for the Buck

Feb 22 '00 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: A Very dependable, fast, nimble, & great gas mileage car.
Cons: none

I had leased a 1997 Acura Integra GS-R Coupe in the Fall of 1996.
I had always been a fanatic of the 4 cyl. sports cars and after about 4 months of researching and test driving many sports cars, I finally decided on the Acura model. At the time,...

No compromises here!

by bamagsr
Jan 10 '03 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Great styling, surprising amount of power, but also great gas mileage.
Cons: High parts and maintenance prices.
The Bottom Line: With an Integra GS-R, you get the power of a Mustang, with the gas mileage of a Civic. Can you say....'No-Brainer'?

The problem with buying a car is, you have to make compromises. If you go after a sports car, you'll get great performance, but you are going to give us ride quality and roominess. If you go after a small car, you are going to get great gas mileage,...

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Power curve. Handling. Looks. Gas mileage (in spite of the power curve) Reliability
Cons: Road noise. Lack of power seat. storage. No Cup holder in the back seat
The Bottom Line: Great little daily driver that also affords tons of fun on the highway and side-streets. A GREAT buy even after many years of usage.

A hot little car, it will not make you want to buy another one for commuting. I have made multiple 1500 mile trips in it and never felt uncomfortable. Great sleeper - Does not look loud and yet is fast enough to blow the doors off poseur racers. It's ...

Treasure too hard to measure.

by integrags
Jun 23 '05 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Great handling, very fun to drive, yet still as functional as most cars it's size.
Cons: Big rear, sometimes have to look around the side to see where I'm backing up.
The Bottom Line: Enjoy it while you're young.

1997 Integra GS. I've owned it for over a year now with about 175 000 km on it today. The last 40 000 were driven by me so you can do the math and figure out how much I love driving it. The only problems I've had with this car were that one of my seat ...

This car is a wonderful fun little fast car. With it's 170 horse power v-tec engine and double wishbone suspension, you'll be sure to have a great time. The shifts on the 5-speed manual transmission are short and crisp, all qualities one would expect...
