Who needs navigation with Android Auto/Carplay?

Exactly. I never use standard nav. Give me my Apple Maps and pandora/Apple music

im not a big fan of Tiger Eye Pearl. My Accord Sport 2.0t was Platinum White but I ALWAYS wished I had gotten it in Black...I might go Black/Red for the Type S but Im HOPING the Type S gets a unique leather color...Blue, Burgundy, Brown..something unique.

At first I really liked the way a white Accord would look, but then I began to see it EVERYWHERE now I almost hate it

I felt the same about the Sonic Gray Pearl Honda uses. Loved it till I saw it everywhere

Pandemic Primer. I liked the color when it was unique but it seems now every manufacturer has this matte, light blue grey color as an option. I actually really like the Smokey Mauve Pearl on the hatchback touring.

I was looking at the shut off sequence on the digital display and I have to say Acura did a good job at Hiding the Type S this time around. For both TLX and MDX base models when they came out to the public, Acura had the model of the Type S version in the shutdown part compared to a base model. So it seems Acura is really hiding the identity of the Type S model.

could be they really are trying to give the enthusiasts what they want in the Type S and are trying to use the base intergra to gen up the support

It could be but the Type S will still remain a 5 door hatchback. Hopefully we see something on the 22nd during that virtual thing they have planned or Grand Prix but I think what’s holding it back is Type R.

So it's funny. Another Acura dealer just called me, one I didn't do a reservation with. Sales Person said they don't expect the integra for 4-5 months (saying there are in fact delays). He said they cannot see the reservations until Corporate sends it to them (takes a few days) and that they haven't gotten many reservations (they are the largest Acura Dealer on the West Coast)
I pressed him about ADM and he couldn't confirm that they wouldn't tack on (they tack on 3K on current MDX's) but told me they don't charge extra for the ILX's they have on the lot (I wonder why)
I asked about a firm MSRP and he said while they don't have it, they feel it'll be closer to mid 30's for the base. So clearly I ended the conversation there.

I am feeling the car market will slow down - I think the business model of ordering cars from dealers based on incoming cars will become the standard for the foreseeable future. Once the integra starts rolling off the assemblyline I forsee a honda civic type of purchase process. If you don't have one, you will be able to reserve on inbound or put an order in and have a dealer allocate it.

He didn't seem to have a ton of information, it was a courtesy call. I think I'm going to hold my current PENSKE reservation and see what happens.

Highly and I mean highly doubt the base to start at mid $30k lol I mean honestly, 17 inch rims, 7 inch touchscreen, no suede seats, no heads up, ELS studio 3D isn’t even available and no fogs that honestly doesn’t sound like a Mid $30k car. I can see $30,500 or $31k but that’s it for base. For the A-Spec probably $32k and then Tech $33.5-34k.

Hope the prices are as you predict. Though Acura can barely compete in the luxury segment, I am worried about the dealer markups because of car shortage.

Dealerships will always mark up to make profit for themselves over helping the brand. Sometimes you have to travel out to find a good dealership that doesn’t do that

I went to my local dealership to check out the liquid carbon color (there was none)and he was surprise when I told him that a dealership in California was doing MSRP. He said that in the bay they plan on doing 5-7k+ MSRP. Getting kinda nervous about only have MSRP in writing (not even signed by the manager). Maybe I’ll push for MSRP + No ADM + Signed by the manager which is a big fucking push.

Agree full stop. The phone call left a bad taste in my mouth. I think he was trying to justify why they "might" add an ADM.
The base integra is 100% a Civic EX-L. The integra A spec is the civic touring +

Just passing on what I was told. clearly this dealer didn't have much info to pass.

Regarding the terms and conditions, I didn't catch it last week during making my reservation but Acura has a line in there about "the price is determined by the dealer and may not be MSRP" feels like a cop out in my opinion.

You could do that to secure it but make sure it’s in an email or handwritten.
