Glad I found this thread, I was about to ask the dealer is my seat was defective. Compared to my 10th gen SI and MK8 GTI, these seats do not get very hot or stay hot for very long.
Bit of a disappointment since heated seats are one of the things that sold me on the ITS over the CTR. Still happy...
I get why folks purchase it. Iāve just never budgeted into my purchase, so Iāve never had it installed. Iāve also never had a dealer ask about it when I was trading in. Heck last two cars I traded, they didnāt even ask to see the car prior.
Had mine less than a week. Eventually the sun will come out and I can get some better photos. Iām really surprised by how rare this color is. I suppose with it being the mature type r, they build more of the mature colors.
Regarding the CT4. The small size removed it from my consideration. Iām 6ā5ā and I fit perfectly fine up front, no chance for anyone to sit behind me. Pretty much the same story in my GTI. Truthfully, the only car Iāve owned that actually sat 4 was my 10th Gen civic.
The generous size of the...
I donāt track, but I lean into my stuff. Iām about an hour away from HWY-129/Deals Gap/the dragon so I would get good value from the performance. I love my GTI, but I donāt like the unreliability and how small the back seats and hatch area are.
I will say in terms of equipment and fit and...
For someone who has no interest in going to the track, would you recommend the integra?
It seems a lot of your frustration is the way the seats feel at the track. Iāve got an S2000 as a weekend car, so I feel like the CTR is a bit overkill. I really want an enjoyable sports sedan with a manual...
Did the civic si lag 1 year behind the regular civic on its recent face-lift?
Knowing my timing, I buy an ITS next month and they add ventilated seats and standard heated wheel for 2026 š.
Thatās my thing. The Golf R is lower in price and offers more premium features than the integra.
The $52k wouldnāt feel unreasonable if it had things like moonroof, ventilated seats and heated steering wheel.
I still think the Integra will sell well. Especially if itās easier to get than a CTR.
I just noticed something in the press release from 2/14/22 where they are talking about pre-orders:
āIntegra is the only vehicle in its segment to offer a six-speed manual transmission for unmatched premium performance, as well as the only liftback bodystyle to provide versatility at an...
It is really good value for money. I wish they built it as a Mazdaspeed with an independent rear suspension and a 6MT, but I understand why they didnāt. It still might be worth my time to test drive one, though.
Just saw that MDX-S reviews went up today on many websites. Iād imagine Acura wouldnāt take the spotlight away from that by releasing integra info at the same time?
I am going to continue to hold out hope for something impressive, that will make the integra a great value for the money.
At this phase Iām expanding my horizons:
GTI
GLI
WRX
Elantra N
All have things I donāt care for, but if a 200hp integra costs $36k for a 6MT and is slower than all the...
