2024 Acura Integra Type S | Review & Road Test

[@TheStraightPipes]

Always a great time hanging out (of the back of minivans) with you Micah!

[@CarsofGlasgow]

Love your combo

[@MicahMuzio]

Can't wait for the next one. The sliding doors are greased and ready to go.

[@tomchao5724]

@thestraightpipes GR supra or the integra type s?

[@timprice8877]

⁠@@tomchao5724 I’d get a Corolla GR or Type R 😊

[@beardown6574]

Micah and the straight pipe boys love that combo! Certainly looks fun to drive!

[@WayApp]

The sleek design and aggressive lines make it an absolute head-turner on the road.

[@TheBreakfastLover]

Agreed, in person you realize how low and wide the ITS's stance is. Looks modded even in stock form.

[@gregp.7148]

I like it! Will always be a more unique car (less on the road, especially since it’s stick shift only) than those Merc CLAs, Bimmer 235s or Audi S3s.

[@67tomcat]

Great review as always! If there's one minor issue, I'd love to see a rear wiper/washer, but that's nitpicking. And it's refreshing it's manual only- way to go Honda/Acura!

[@SATO_FD2R]

Interesting for everyone to show such interest in this Type S

[@Slim1986]

I really like it! However, I wish Acura would make the interior more Acura like, but I get it

[@BRsWorld]

I test drove one and I agree about the turbo lag when you floor it. You have to plan ahead a bit unless you are already above 3k rpms. This car reminded me A LOT of my old SRT-4. Very similar gearing, acceleration and how it carries weight in the corners. Which is impressive considering that was a stripped down car from the factory that didn't have power windows in the back or even a muffler so they could save weight, and this is pretty much loaded with a fairy plush interior.

[@ShafinRehman]

I think this is a fantastic car, handling and dynamic wise but I'm not so sure on the price. It's a very big jump from a Civic Type-R. Even in Canada, it is dangerously closely priced to more powerful, bigger sport sedans.

[@ALMX5DP]

19x19.5" wheels? Dang you could fit like a 625mm tire under there! :P

[@michaelschneider5190]

This seems like the perfect car for older millennials (40+) to relive their youth without driving an obnoxious, over modified JDM car.

[@coltonhill2646]

I'm 35 and I want one so bad. lol I had a 2002 Acura RSX Type S at 16. So you can see why I'd want it!

[@tealtonerick6345]

The dealers are price gouging on this. It's such a shame.

[@ejohnson3131]

Love the front end! It looks like a compact, sporty TLX. They need more Acura DNA in the rear and make it look more like the TLX because it looks too much like a Mercedes CLA.

[@kimchee411]

It has a lot of RSX in the rear end design.

[@GODiscomingsoonagain]

Acura More Reliable than germans for sure.benz bmw are more complicated 2002 acura rsx types stilll running strong today

[@DavidFernandez-sc5ws]

Cool car. Couldn’t buy this over a type r though

[@maoinc13]

51k ? I buy the Honda Civic type R instead 😊

[@vstan9023]

Amazing review Micah, pls do a collaboration with straight pipes, they my favorite Canadians also

[@FLG8r]

nice vintage / throw-back Micah in the Mazda ... youth!

[@ryanfrisby7389]

Great review Micah, also, you look so different in that Mazda clip lol

[@Ethan7s]

Savagegeese was able to take it to the track, is kbb running on a limited budget?

[@im823]

Great video. The side profile looks like a civic

[@ClintonBegin]

@5:23 you "felt that swell" because you floored it at low engine speed (RPM) downshift... The only time that very minimal turbo lag might be felt will be launching from a dig, and then that lag helps you not spin the tires. After that every gear shift will keep it in boost. Reviewers all lugged the ASpec too, and whined about power. Drive it properly and it won't be an issue.

[@wackit6756]

Went to two dealers today….Each one marked up $20,000 plus $4500 (minimum )in add on's. UGH!!! BTW sounds like a ton of REV hang!😕

[@williamconrad1087]

There is a lag, in my C7, before the swell but it’s because the rear tires are spinning.

[@QuangNguyen-ng5zh]

He looks like a baby in that Mazda 3 clip

[@dogdoc1]

Weren't all the Acura cars front wheel drive, including the much loved and praised Integra and RSX Type-S? So why so much bemoaning about this car's drivetrain arrangement? 🤔

[@SSS-mp8th]

Actually laughed out loud when you said the price, good thing you waited until the end. Paid that for my 6cyl Supra.

[@maoinc13]

I would buy the Honda Civic Type R instead

[@disco.lemonade]

Supra is hideous looking. I would get it only for free so I could sell it and buy an Integra Type S

[@SSS-mp8th]

@@disco.lemonade No accounting for bad taste, to each their own.

[@ejohnson3131]

@john smith is kinda right though. They were channeling The Predator when they designed the Supra!

[@Stingray_614]

Micah… is everything okay brother? You were swinging it around those corners quite hard 🤣

[@ismailkhan9698]

Missing 5 seat option

[@rookietoprobuildz]

Looks super fun to drive 🔑

[@mikes6853]

50k “luxury” sports sedan and no power folding mirrors and Honda gets on my last nerve by aways omitting the sunroof off their typeR cars much less never offering a pano roof in the states…all in all tho I’m a proud Honda boy and on my 6th accord Go Acura!😊

[@mp5wes]

4:21 Babyface Micah 😂

[@jjgates6351]

With those aircond vents, Honda's not hiding the fact that it's a Civic with a different skin lol

[@anthonykiedis1765]

The Straight Pipes cameo was awesome

[@MicahMuzio]

Those guys are the best!

[@acemacgruber6593]

50k plus dest & tax, about 58k minimum. Too rich for me.

[@GALANTXVR4]

They should have just called it the GSR, if they wanted to really get that nostalgia $$$

[@DrBrainrape]

Don’t dirty the GSR legacy with this abomination

[@Flex_WRX]

The straight pipes are the best!! ❤

[@CrazyDavy22]

3:33 19X19.5 inch wheels. Wow! That’s a really wide wheel! 😂

[@brooklyndon29]

Why can’t they integrate the screen into the dash.

[@626KiDD]

That would require molding the dash to fit a certain sized screen, which ups the development cost unfortunately.

[@Kiss__Kiss]

Great looking car, but it DOES need AWD. Good on Honda/Acura, for giving it a manual transmission.

[@wtrdogg20]

Yeap! They missed the chance to put the SH-AWD system, like in the TLX Type S...

[@626KiDD]

@@wtrdogg20 Then that would compete with the TLX Type S in terms of pricing.

[@TheBreakfastLover]

​@@wtrdogg20SH-AWD would add another 250 lbs and increase the MSRP.

[@6729solarwolf]

Now that's a spicy meatball

[@patrickstarr87]

🙌🏻🔥

[@leeedens9497]

It almost feels like Acura lost some future Integra Type S because it doesn't have an optional DCT; Acura says it is targeting the Mercedes CLA 35 AMG, BMW M235i Gran Coupe, or Audi S3, all subcompacts, the Integra is a compact

[@bahamatodd]

Disappointing you can't get the red paint with that red interior

[@preoksaha4504]

Petition for Micah to bring back that goatee 😎😂

[@MicahMuzio]

Oooh. I'm gonna have to veto that one.

[@erickatterheinrich8416]

I took you over 8 minutes to mention the type R, lol 🤣

[@Opine.Social]

I want one but my wife can't drive a manual

[@MukhtarMuhammad-zx6rt]

Berry nice Honda civic anda acura ❤

As always great video ! How do spell ACURANESS ?😂

[@denault3985]

Santa Barbara News-Press headline...Micah from Kelly Blue Book crashes 2024 Acura Integra S into garbage cans due to his exuberant driving.

[@lancemontes]

Wow

[@East17A]

that is so annoying!! the only letdown with this vehicle. is not having AWD seriously. this is Honda's mistake. I thought maybe Acura was planning on it. but shockingly and obviously that is not the case. Honda and Acura are not fans of making the perfect choice here. they could have made it. optional!!

[@paulh6517]

For 2-3k more I would get the TLX type S.

[@ALMX5DP]

I'm the opposite, I might actually pay more for something like this. Love the chassis, manual and smaller/lighter setup.

[@TheFK8Life]

TLX-S is a pig with an automatic trans 😂 Type S Integrs runs circles around it

[@RobustArid379]

You drive family SUV

[@WestUCoog]

[@deemabe719]

50k price is ridiculous

[@lucasl.5084]

Micah and I have the same favorite Canadians

[@joelb7497]

Rear end looks like a Supra

[@enriquet548]

Manual not good for commuting. I would get this just to drive around weekends.

[@dfk09]

The dreaded dealer markup...the Civic R is a better deal.

[@onewileyguy]

Had to stop watching. I didnt care for the reviewers cocky and condescending attitude. No thanks dude, give us the straight story. Not the self-congratulating Bro attitude.

[@timmyvechett]

We want a coupe

[@antoinelee-thomas9536]

No we don't.

[@nickzalan4762]

Hrmm... Shutty rural canadian roads may not be the best environment for this car😂

[@GoBrand0n]

50K for a front wheel drive? Hard pass! I'll get a 2023 Bmw 240i Xdrive and call it A Day

[@AviationDirection]

Side profile looks horrible!

[@inspector4133]

Too much for an Integra (especially with the expected dealer markups), even as sweet as it is. For that much money, I'd skip the S3 and add an RS3 to my motor pool, serious fun, luxury and looks. YMMV.

[@Ben-bs4od]

Americans will drop 50k for this while a smarter European will spend 5k on a used Volvo C30 and invest 45k in real estate or gold. And then buy a dozen of these cars in ten years. Invest in the car's stock, not in the car. You can get a Mercedes with an automatic and all wheel drive for this price. This is also the Size of a Camry or Accord now at 74 inches, I have no interest in this or the Civic Type R used. Too big.

[@alphabeta8403]

3:55 FWD = nose heavy = Torque steer 8:30 Wayy too expensive for a small FWD sports sedan WITHOUT sunroof. Should’ve also been SHAWD and +30 HP for the hefty price.

[@PsychicMedium4747]

Why you had to include those 2? I cannot stand their channel…Throttle House duet are far better than those 2

[@kkp4297]

dead on arrival

[@eddielau222]

not worth 52k even without markup. they should make it awd

[@Hat65]

Wah wah wah wah wah

[@Vinas1000]

Fwd and only in manual sucks

[@AviationDirection]

FWD? No thanks. Easy pass.

[@ALMX5DP]

Yeah I say the same about front prop aircraft. They have nothing on planes with engines on the tail.

[@TheBreakfastLover]

The Civic Type R is FWD and only 4 seconds slower than the Bugatti Veyron's Nurburgring time.

[@mluu510]
