They've always had those in some markets, so it's still unclear if we'll be getting them too. Hyundai, like Honda with their Civics, just decided not to include some features for US spec models. A lot of manufacturers are doing that and I absolutely hate it. Btw, the Chinese market model in the...

I agree, it's indeed more interesting to see the old nameplates coming back. I was suggesting that they should have brought back the Type R nameplate too since they already kind of messed up their naming system with the Integra.

I think they should have done a 270hp 10AT Type S and called the 320hp one Type R. I know Acura's only doing Type S now but bringing back the Integra nameplate didn't really make sense either lol

I wasn’t talking about people who were actually cross shopping different cars with the ITS. I mean, I have BRZ and Kona N on my list lol I’m running out of options too. I was just trying to say it’s not fair to compare those cars simply to argue one’s better than another.

I don’t get why some people are comparing it to all the random cars in “similar” price range. The German trio and Honda/Acura’s own siblings are enough to show how messed up the pricing is for the ITS. There’s no point comparing it to things like Elantra N or M340i or even Supra. They’re very...

I'm out. What were they thinking? I won't be running around screaming "Acura is done" because I honestly think their regular models aren't bad at all. And I'm sure they won't mess up the upcoming TLX refresh and RDX redesign or whatever this horribly. But this, I really don't know what to say...

That's already too funny to begin with but imagine shopping for a Rio or a Spark and getting all those extra stuff added on to the price tag :D

I actually like the look of it. I've always been a huge fan of the round fender flares like the ones on W204 coupe and Audi TT. I just hope it's not physically tacked on. Front fender and rear bumper look pretty natural. It's the rear quarter panel I'm worried about.

Maybe they are actually 2023 integras but with ITS engine and parts. They had a TLX Type S prototype based on the 1st gen in 2020.

Obviously I wasn't serious about it🤦‍♂️ My expectations are set properly imo. I don't believe in simple calculations so I looked at how Acura, VAG and BMW AG recently priced their models. I'd say 43-46K + destination but I could be wrong. Tbh I didn't expect the new CTR to cost 5K more than the...

Me neither but let's just say $39K. I'm just trying to lower the average expected MSRP here lol

Some important people from Acura might be on this forum. So let's not make them think it would be OK to price it higher. Let's just say $39999 max 🤷‍♂️

That's just a simple calculation they did tho. Maybe it will cost $50K+ Maybe it will cost less than $45K we just don't know yet. And usually the pricing's the last thing manufacturers reveal...so we're gonna have to wait a while.

Because it will be heavier and less "performance oriented." Honda/Acura have said multiple times that the R is for ultimate track performance and the Type S is less extreme version that's better for daily driving.

Interesting that they had to redesign the roof for the Type S.

So the type S will be getting: Better Speakers Better NVH Acura Badge Powered/Heated Leatherette Seats with Memory Settings Parking Sensors Moonroof? And will be losing: Bucket Type Front Seats Fancy Red Interior lol Honda LogR Aero Parts Overall Performance "Type R" Badge

I don’t think Honda and Acura will play with advertised specs especially after the regular Integra getting exactly 200hp. Looks like it will have to be either 306hp FK8 motor or 315hp FL1 motor. Latter seems more likely, considering it has the same exhaust set up and drivetrain set up as the FL1.

Yeah I agree it will be very fun and engaging to drive. I was actually comparing two different strategies from VW group and BMW group. S3 has less hp than the Golf R while M135i and the JCW have same (or very similar) hp output. So my question is: will the ITS come with 315hp just like the...

I'm actually very surprised to see it's 6MT only. I wonder if it will be more like S3/Golf R or Clubman JCW/M235i.

I don’t know how bad Marysville’s QC is right now but I expect it to be better than how Swindon’s used to be
