Introducing the 2024 Acura Integra Type S! On Sale in June

[Understeer]

I feel like Acura doesn't know about the Golf R. All their claims about have the only this or that in it's class is just wrong. The Golf R has a manual trans and 315HP (5hp lower ) with "pop and bang exhaust" . On top of that AWD with a drift mode and cooled seats. I know the interior is bad on the Golf but still a lot to consider for what you get. With a MSRP of 48k on the Golf I don't know how Acura is going to price this but if it's anywhere near what a CTR is I'm worried.

I believe all the press voted that Type R was a better drivers car than the golf R, take it for what its worth.

Here's the summary of Pros I'm gathering for the ITS vs the CTR:
Integra type S:

• Power memory seats with heating
• Heads up display
• Parking sensors
• Pops and bangs exhaust tune
• ELS Audio system
• Multiple interior color options
• More exterior color options
• 5 more HP
• More comfortable suspension tuning

Civic Type R:

• Bucket Seats
• Functional Aero
• 30 lbs lighter
• LogR System
• Track Gauges/ Shift Lights
• Stiffer Suspension for track use
• Slightly more rear seat headroom

All those Type R parts are straight bolt ons however you can't easly bolt on what the Type S comes with to the R.

Correct. However, the Type-S is ment to be more street then race just like the Golf R.

Just spoke to my salesman at the dealer I’m going through and he said that they found out this past Saturday that Acura is gonna do the reservation process again like they did with the initial Integra launch. I guess take it with a grain of salt but that’s what he said.

As someone not familiar with that initial launch what was it like?

I’m strongly debating between this and the type r but if this is relatively easy to get at MSRP it’ll be hard to say no to.

suspension, steering are essentially the same, I bet it uses the same springs also with slightly less tuned adjustable dampers. Only thing more streetable are the seats/stereo

What are yall predictions on how the ITS will hold its value over time?

Probably like any other luxury vehicle
I'm hoping I can get 30k for my Aspec..

It's easier to find MSRP only Acura dealers than Honda ones. I paid MSRP and was the first Integra sold at the dealership I went to.

Nice. I'm sticking with Liquid carbon metal so the wife might not notice the upgrade

In the short term, it’ll hod its value much better than the normal Integra (just like how the TLX Type S has held its value better than the TLX A-Spec).

In the long run, I think it will do quite well. It’s likely the last performance, manual transmission Acura will make. Just look at prices on a good condition RSX Type S or manual TL Type S.

Until someone tries to open the sunroof and sees that it’s gone

My first choice would be Performance Red Pearl with the Orchid interior.

Second choice would be Liquid Carbon Metal with the Red interior.

My dealer has told me they are getting 12 units for this model year, Acura dealer in Canada
