crickets - some of my thoughts on the upcoming Integra Type S

[Bzal1122]

ADM’s are a bit nuts on the GRC too. I still think the best opp to get one of these great cars at MSRP is the Teg. I’m sure next year the ADM on both the CTR and GRC will be less

My coworker is at 3 months and counting for a regular Corolla SE. Good luck getting a GR. I guess the same can be said for a number of vehicles though. Hybrids especially. I've heard 18 months for some hyundai hybrids.

Back on topic, that white ITS rendered above is freaking amazing looking. So much sleeker than the CTR w/ its hideous ebay wing.

Yes … now we just need to convince Acura it’s time to show the car without the wraps ,give us a price, and let the orders begin. Even if release dateline is down the line , they could start fueling up the excitement. At times I go look at the car thread just to pretend it’s this one.

I’ll be at Sebring next month for the IMSA race, and fully expect the ITS to be on display there like it was at Daytona.

I don’t expect it to look any different than it did at Daytona, but it will be nice to see it in person, and I’ll be sure to get some images of the car.

I hear wrap comes off pretty quick with compressed air… something to keep in mind.

I'm cross shopping between GRC and CTR, came across ITS as an option based on the available info. I test drove an A-spec 6MT and was impressed with the fun to drive factor but was disappointed by the power. So I'm hopeful that the ITS would address that concern with the CTR 2.0. With that said, I'm curious how Acura would handle the MSRP. Looking at the ~300 hp competitions:

GRC $40-44k, depending on if you look at the Core with options or limited Circuit Edition as the target.
CTR $44.4k
S3 $46.8k
CLA 35 $47.9k

It feels like ITS would need to slot in between CTR and S3 to be competitive, so $45 to 46-ish. Otherwise it runs into the price range of S3 and CLA both with AWD and arguably better name plate/luxury. If there is better ITS availability, I think it's build in OH, then it could be a winner for Acura.

We're all hoping for a sub 49k vehicle.
GRC looked intriguing but interior is basic and smaller than the Integra/civic.
Integra is within an inch interior room is close to the accord and I find this as a huge plus.

Not sure if we all are but I am hoping for a jackass exhaust note that I’ll love but will anger other drivers while I’m being a bit of a dk.

Anything new would be nice to hear at this point. Give us some color options even if it’s just a digital rendering. We wanna know some shiz!!

I don't have a gram account. Care to repost what content they showed on here?

They didn’t say much…

For what it's worth, Honda showed the FL5 uncamoflauged in July last year, and then revealed pricing in October. So a March reveal of the car without pricing could line up well with a summer launch.
