thanks for replying. I actually ended up selling off my Si. Haven’t gotten inside the Acura yet but everything I heard points to it not being anywhere in the luxury class as far as NVH goes. So I might have to look elsewhere for a 6 MT option.

Very much appreciated buddy. That’s the kind of perspective I’m looking for. Gives me some reference points. Thanks ! I certainly don’t expect a luxury car quietness from a Honda. But I have owned the latest gen Mazda 3 and also spent quite a bit of time in the new Corolla and the VW cars like...

Yes noise is totally subjective and hence I posted this question here on the forum. Where I am coming from is being able to enjoy the nice ELS sound system or the decent Bose system in the Si. For me, I love clarity in music and don’t really need to play it very loud. And for that purpose the...

Ohh. I’m glad you chipped in with your thoughts. But I’m upset too that the car is louder than what I would want. I really do love everything else about the Si which the integra has too like the shift quality, suspension etc. Curious what are you trading it in for ?

It’s funny you bring Mazda into the mix. I actually had the 2019 Mazda 3 hatchback premium with the MT before my Si. Put 25k miles on it, great daily driver. But it just lacked little bit of the personality that old Mazdas are known for. The previous generation mazda 3s had a great...

i actually am not able to find any for test drive in our area. So any leads please let me know. And yeah the tires definitely could be a big reason in the Si. TLX isn’t an option for me because I need the 3rd pedal. If notI would think there are a lot of options out there. We need more 3 pedal...

Thanks a lot for chiming in John. Your comments make a lot of sense. I actually am finding it quite hard to find one near my area to test drive. So it’s going to be little bit of a game of patience for me. There is a GLI available which is tempting but I am going to hold off (hopefully) because...

I got mine from tamaroff Honda. Not sure if it was the dealer or the sales person or just luck. They didn’t have a mark up on the Si but had a mandatory protection package that I was bent on not paying for. After a few hours the salesperson came back and said they will take it off. Funny thing...

Hey there. I’m in the market for the integra. Currently have the 2022 civic Si. Does road/cabin noise at highway speeds (75-80 mph) bother you from enjoying the clarity of the audio the ELS system offers. I hear at moderate to low volumes and I’m wondering if the cabin is quiet enough for my...

Got it. Thanks for your input. I was extremely fortunate to get my Si for MSRP.

Thank you for the feedback ! I agree in that most people say it’s not a true luxury experience mainly because it shares the platform with a civic. That makes it really tough for me. The only option I then see is to get into a GLI/GTI but I absolutely love the shift/suspension/steering set up of...

hey. I may end up in the same boat. Have 7000 miles on the Si but the cabin noise really bothers me. A couple of questions if you can chime in. 1) How is the cabin noise difference between the two ? Is the Acura significantly quieter like a luxury brand car should be ? 2) How different are the...

Hello all, Like the title says, I have the 22 Si in SGP with about 7000 miles. I absolutely love everything about the car except the cabin noise. And that is now getting to a point where I’m considering switching to something else (Integra). For some background, I enjoy car audio a lot, have...

Ohh yeah forgot about the service, most likely that should be true. Comparison with the Si IMO will largely come down to how they have tuned the driving experience on the Integra. I heard the Si can get jarring on bad roads which is all we have here in Michigan, so i ruled the Si out for me...

Hello Guys, I know this information is nothing new but just creating this as an easy way to access this compare as many people might be cross shopping the Integra vs Civic hatchback ST. Here are the differences in specs from what i can find, please add if there are more or clarify if i have...
