Cheap last forever car? - HondaClub.com

Is is just me, or do these cars last forever? They are also real cheap if you buy them used. It seems that alot of people drive the old 2 door acura integra still.

I personally dont like the look of the car but, like you said, they are real cheap. Id say they are good for the money, but consider a honda civic instead

So how does the acura compare with the civic as far as price goes? Just curious.

Prices are similar, the teg has a slightly higher price tag - but not much.

I have had my Honda Acura Integra Type R now for a little over 6 months and I love every driving minute. When I have to get out of bed at an awfull time in the morning to go to work it makes it a whole lot easyer knowing i'll be going in my ITR. (yes even after six months). The car is a great looker aswell as spot on handling and performance. On the handling point its greatly improved if you stick on some nice rubber...(on the wheels that is :P) If you can afford one of these little Jap rockets I say GO FOR IT. Running costs are a little high as mentioned before but if you need to save a little cash you can still drive it like an old woman for good MPG. What else can I say its a lovely bit of kit. PS did I mention its great?

I agree, the look of this car isn't for me but I have heard they're worth the money.

i have had my '92 teggy for like 4 months i love driving it. the motor is perfect for the car (non-vtec

) but the handling is awesome and the car is just GREAT! the best of all is i got mine for 700.00 and it only has 78k on it!! got it form a friend if ur wondering wtf! i'd look to buy a teggy or maybe a older Ex civic..

yeah, not much for the style myself, mainly just the headlights, lol, but what makes a teggy look wicked awesome is a JDM front headlight conversion, love it to death.

Integras have a lot of posibilities when it comes to tuning. As other said, the look is a little "blah" but the JDM front makes it so much better. Integras are a little more $$$ than a civic of the same year, but you have to remember, that you are getting a little more in the integra. Such as a bigger motor, power windows, ac, etc. Motor selection is ok. The LS (B18B) isn't too bad, but if you have the extra $1000-2000, go for the GS-R. Great starting platform for a lot of ways to go (supercharger, turbo, all-motor). I've got a 2000 GS (I wish i would of got the GS-R) but it's been good to me. Clocked in a 82K the other week, and besides the normal maintenence: oil, filter, plugs and other fluids, nothing else has been done. I did put some Kumhos on the stocks to add a little grip when I want to push it, but the car runs great.
