Much bigger. The TLX has 34.9” of rear legroom, and the Integra has something like 37.5”, nearly 3” more. The current TLX, as great as it looks, is one of the worst packaged vehicles I’ve come across. It’s as big on the outside as an A6, but the A3 has more rear headroom and legroom. The rear...

I think the ITS will do well over time (not that you're going to want to get rid of it, as I think it's one of those cars where you buy it and hold on to it indefinitely). Look at prices for clean S2000's, RSX Type-S', etc. The desirable Honda/Acura driver's cars seem to hold their value pretty...

I do not believe they did, MSRP was annouced after the pre-orders went live. But with pre-orders going live on May 11, and cars supposedly arriving at dealers in June, it only leaves a handful of weeks for Acura to get all the info out there for prospective buyers to decide whether they want to...

I recognize that MSRP isn't official yet, but most outlets are speculating that the ITS will come in at $47-48k, and as I step back and think about the ITS, I do question whether it is a good value at the near $50k price point. The ITS is going to come in at a price around $10k more than the...

Yeah, a I think a lot of the TLX’s performance issues stem from it’s curb weight. Acceleration, braking, fuel economy relative to the competitors. The TLX is a good 300lbs heavier, and it shows. I just don’t know where that weight goes. The competitors are just as safe in crash ratings, and...

I wouldn’t be surprised if they put the digital gauge cluster from the MDX in. My personal opinion though is that the cluster in the A-Spec and Type-S is really nice. I like the silver gauges faces with red needles and backlighting, and there’s already a 7” digital display between them to give...

I agree, the interior of the Corolla is horrendous for the price. The Golf R is great, minus the fact that they did away with nearly every physical control for the infotainment and HVAC. I looked at an Arteon and really like it, but everything was capacitive touch buttons, which I hated.

What’s more luxury about the ITS over the CTR? It has heated seats, a HUD, and the ELS Studio 3D stereo. That’s pretty much it. The CTR has nicer seats, a better gauge cluster, the LogR function. Personally, I was hoping for a bit more “luxury” with the ITS. Ventilated seats, heated steering...

Do you really feel that this is a ~$53k car when you take a step back and look at it as a whole package?

Hell, the ITS is missing features that the $10k less expensive A-Spec Tech has. Moon roof, memory driver seat, power passenger seat, etc.

So we’re just over a week away from the supposed reservation system going live, and we don’t have real info. What do we think, will there be an information drop this weekend or possible early next week ahead of the system coming online, or is Acura just going to keep prospective buyers in the...

The CTR’s individual mode has a lot more customization than the ITS’ does

The LTV is also important. Who’s going to write a loan with a 150% LTV because someone is taking out $60k for a $40k car (assuming they’re not rolling over any negative equity)? If I decide to get an ITS, after trading in my paid off car I’d likely be in the $12k ballpark, so I’ll just write...

Or the A45 AMG HB

Hmm… anybody thinking of swapping the red seatbelts over from the FK8/FL5? The ITS’ seat belts are black and boring, and the swap should be pretty simple (provided you can get ahold of the parts).

We’re getting off-topic from the intent of this thread. There are plenty of other threads about the ITS where people can debate wheel size and color. Let’s try to keep this one on-topic for dealerships and what they’re charging.

My primary choice is PRP/Ebony, but that looks like it won’t be an option until the third groups of cars based on that sheet my dealer sent me, with the expectation that the 4 combos on the right are the launch options. I could deal with LCM (not sure on Ebony vs Red interior), but I don’t...

My three preferred color combos are PRP/Ebony, LCM/Red, LCM/Ebony. I have PRP on my TLX, and love it. You barely any see Acuras in PRP, and it’s such a great looking color. LCM also looks good, but it’s far more common. I also don’t know if so would want to go the conservative route with an...

True, if you only over wanted a soft damper setting you could buy and run the damper bypass switches. That way you could still switch drive modes to keep all the other changes, while maintaining the soft damper setting. As for lowering the car, I’d run either H&R or Swift springs. But then I’d...

Hopefully damping/spring rates will be a bit softer, but many reviewers claimed that when you set the FL5 up in individual mode with the suspension set to comfort, the car was quite good.
