I love that honda is keeping their engine bays easy to work on. Plenty of space, very visible components, easy to access.
It’s a Honda tradition
I think that's why people that work cars love Honda..
I was happy to see this car. For $51k it's a no go for me, only 1 electric front seat, no cooled seats, no AC vents/charging ports in the back, hard touch plastic doors in back, no power lift hatch, prop rod hood plus the stuck on plastic pieces on rear doors.
It sure does feel like a $30k Civic.
Don't forget the Mark ups and Bs dealer fees. More like 70k OTD.... what a JOKE😂😂😂😂😂
100% agree. They phoned this one in. They remembered the performance but not the luxury. Not different enough from the CTR to justify the price difference.
Those are all things you don’t get on a VW GLI too but it’s a 35,000 Canadian I think around 27-29k USD. I feel like Acura gets precious and cuts the strangest corners or gets stingy. Either you are a luxury brand doing luxury things or you aren’t. So when they add engine power, excitement et’al, and forget all about the back seat occupants…then it shows they still can’t make a performance vehicle for anyone but just the driver. The single power seat thing is mind blowing to me.
@@TheLumberJacked no ac vents, heated rear seats, middle arm rest, charging ports, only one map pocket. They didn’t forget about the rear occupants, they actively HATE the rear occupants lol
That’s why you’ll never own a car that appreciates in the future even though the opportunity to do so is in the present. These are the same people who wish they could afford an Integra type R
Exterior looks bad ass but looks like they cut a lot of corners in the interior.
Of course, Honda trying to make that extra money lol
Its starting model lol
@@bj10jgo the lowest in the line up
@@rks-bh6tb the civic is the starting model. This should already be the upgrade and it’s not.
I think the exterior is lazy. They could have made something special but decided to slap the same front end styling from previous TLX/RDX/MDX designs. When they first announced it's release I really hoped they planned a retro looking modern Integra, but I was really disappointed.
Looks amazing in that blue. But it's way overpriced for what you get.
Yeah just like type R and corolla gr. Acura is more premium than civic
Agreed. This car would be amazing at closer to $40K, but $50+ is too much for a car with a crap ton of hard plastic and no rear seat vents, no AWD, no dual clutch option, etc. It’s right in the range of an Audi S3, and that car just feels and looks more premium
@@993mike I'd definitely pick s3 over this. Love their digital cockpit
But you can do worse. CTR is overpriced but it’s worth it because it’s a class leader
But then you can do worse than the type s
@@993mike I'd really struggle to get his over an S3. You can even pick up (an admittedly "base") S4 for the same price and that's a no-brainer.
You'd have to be a full dent-head MaNuAl person who prefers their vehicles slower, thirstier, and dirtier, because it makes you feel manly, to get one of these at this price.
Could Acura have done more? Let’s see. All wheel drive. Dual clutch transmission option. Power seat for the passenger. Memory seats for the driver. Moonroof. Alcântara seats in the back. Air conditioning vents in the back. USB-C in the backseats. Power hydraulics for the rear hatch. Fog lights. Power mirrors that fold in. More type S graphics on the dash. Ventilated seats for the front. And last but not least, the option to get it in the freaking silver color.🤣🤣🤣
The competition has much nicer interiors for the same price. The design & the manual are the best things the Integra has going for it.
I’m liking this new Type S more and More!
Same here. Too many haters on this car. This car will appeal to 91% of buyers, while the other 9% not as much.
@@antoinelee-thomas9536 320hp, no sunroof and it's fwd. No thank you
people aren’t buying this for a sunroof lmao
The cult leader himself
@kevin So is the Civic TYpe R. So was the original Integra. Wtf are you on!?
They want 50k for 320hp and no features. Not only is the feature list a joke but they actually had the balls to remove stuff thats on the a-spec and charge more for it 👌
320hp is plenty, now the fact it’s not AWD, no power seats for passenger, no ventilated seats, keep in mind Acura is a LUXURY line of Honda, these features would be never be left out in a Lexus.
@@legion2275 320 isn't plenty when you have other sports cars touching 485 or more....I'm not impressed 😐
@@detroitalwayz3132 you’ve become so desensitized to speed it’s not even funny. This car isn’t mean to be a track car. It’s a sport sedan. A daily driver at that. If you want a fast daily driver you buy an RCF or is500. Can’t believe your comparing sport coupes pushing 450+ horsepower to a Daily Honda essentially.
@@legion2275 Chargers are sports sedans and it's called sport for a reason. Don't dress it like one if you are just going to water it down and make it look like it goes fast only to overprice it 🙄
@@legion2275 the point is: type s being so overpriced you could get n/a v8 cars for less money and while they might also be missing features, at least the performance gap is so big it makes up for the lack of features. Im down a 100 hp from the type s but my 20 something extra features compensates for that.
4:28 The blue color and the bronze wheels make this look more like a classic, old-school STi.
No dual zone climate
No ventilated seats
No seat memory options

@Black Flame
I totally agree with you!
No positivity
No for you
I am so glad I have mine on order!!!
Driving an FK8 atm and loving it.
When I heard the exhaust I fell in love with this car ❤ Following to see you drive it on June 19th!
It's missing important things. Sunroof, rear seat arm rest, power folding mirrors, and other stuff for $50,000.
And no V8? 😢
@Dennis Bynum That too. A V8 option in all cars should be a Federal law.
no folding mirrors!? my base accord 2004 has that aha
@Tantium It has them. They aren't power operated. Ya gotta use manual labor to fold them. Still shameful though.
Those are not important things
I love the styling of this car and the color is awesome!
Thanks for the review, see you on the 19th!
Looks amazing in that blue.
Wow, this car is gorgeous! I want one badly.
for close to 60k fuck that
yeah wasnt even close to being on my radar but damn its gorgeous. even the engine cover is beautiful
Man it is beautiful. Thank you Acura
I love this guys reviews. When you did the 9th Gen Honda Accord coupe i def had to buy one after watching your video years ago. And the Integra Type S is looking pretty good, just wish they had a 2 door version.
Same! I still have my 9th gen Accord coupe v6 and it runs like a charm. Great power too.
This car along with the other type S vehicles are great looking and I’m sure they’re great vehicles overall. The price tag at dealers is the turn off.
I see the same negative people showed up who thought the base Integra would be a flop. Fast forward to now, and it’s been a hot seller for Acura. Just like the base Integra sold to who it was intended for, the same will happen for the Type S.
No one that was in love with integra are buying this....people buying this, knows nothing about the model...
Haters gonna hate!
@@donnie9001 🤡
Base integras are sitting on my local dealer lot with dying car batteries...almost 30 of them listed. Flop. I've only seen 1 on the road since release yet instead have seen a ton of 11th gen Accords and that car was just released.
@@JustAnotherRandomNPC 30 new Integras at one Acura dealership. This must be the largest Acura dealership in the world. What’s the name of the dealership?
APEX Blue is Acura's best colour.
This is a sweet car - the thigh body, the lights, the rims, the exhaust sound, and gear shifter. I wish it was all-wheel drive (SH-AWD) though.
this Type-S gets me SUPER excited for a RDX Type-S
Your eyes told me you were well aware of that green cart driving by as your video was ending 👀👍
Always love to watch the reviews from redline. If you want AWD and a auto, pick up a TLX Aspec. Similar k20c, SHAWD, 10 speed auto. These also wont have the crazy MSRP markup that the integra type S will have. If you want to turn some heads(edit break necks) and get what I'm sure will be an iconic car, get the type s with the 3rd pedal.
agreed, and if you're willing to pay the dealer mark-up for the Integra Type S, consider getting the TLX Type S for MSRP instead. You're not getting ripped off paying ADM, plus you get the V6 Turbo, the quicker 10AT, and SH-AWD.
I'm being quoted at $5k markup...and keep in mind, the markup is already built in. in no way did they add $6k worth of enhancements
the way the market is now, I truly believe the markup on the CTR will slowly come down over the next year too
@@josepholson4850 well assuming you are talking about the integra type s, that isn’t a bad markup. Civic type R’s sell for over 60K on average.
@@atflores85 you just nailed the primary issue with this car. they priced it to compete with the CTR at "resale", not at retail
the CTR may never see retail, but I strongly doubt it will sell at 60k this time next year
you can't think of this subjectively. you can't say "well it's a good deal compared to this other thing that's a bad deal", that's a dangerous road
It’s a beautiful car, but the TLX Type-S is a much better deal when thinking about it objectively. It’s larger, has a smoother more throatier V6 engine, SH-AWD for handling, a fast and smooth shifting 10-Speed transmission, and many other niceties for a little more.
I was thinking this too especially considering price. I thought the closest competition its going to have is it larger brother a couple spots down at the same dealership. Having said that the TLX type S is a 4200lbs sled and will have a wildly different driving dynamic compared to the Integra. That will most likely come down to preference of driving style.
i agree. with the tlx being priced so closely to this, it’ll make a lot of people look past it i believe.
@@EKFiPod indeed!
@@wheats0276 the TLX Type-S will still be quicker, and SH-AWD will make it a little more nimble then the Integra.
It’s the superior vehicle hands down. I think too many people put too much weight (see what I did there?) on all of these TH-cam videos putting the heavier TLX Type-S against its lighter competitors in a straight line… which isn’t the only thing that makes a sporty car.
Yes the TLX is heavy, but it sure doesn’t feel like it as one of my brothers own one. And it feels great to drive.
@@MrSamPhoenix I have to disagree with the thinking that performance of a TLX-S will be better. It's sort of proven that its not, just judging by civic type r metrics. AWD doesn't make a car "handle". Say for example you take a tested metric like C&D's published time of TLX-S as 13.6s @ 103mph and their Civic Type R time of 13.5s @ 106mph. The Type R is flat out the faster car in that metric. But certainly can't say the TLX will be more "nimble" because of AWD, the skidpad figures show more roadholding for the type R and better braking distances by a long shot. As far as "performance" is concerned the Integra Type S will be the "faster" car when tested through the everyday metrics and certainly will be faster on a road course or "back road", and I'd be willing to bet more fun on a back road.
Another great review, thank you!
#1 Honda/Acura reviewer is Redline. This new Integra is sophisticated savagery
No memory seats no power fold mirrors, no rear ac vents, no special seats, no cooled seats, no buy for $50k + Mark up. Looks amazing though I’ll give it that.
This is way too expensive for all the things missing, no cooled seats, moonroof, arm rest in rear, missing vents in rear, memory seats, power folding mirrors, heated steering wheel, etc… it’s insane. It should be around 42-44k
Favorite car of 2024. It has the aggression that the CTR should have, with the performance. Bellissimo
It looks fantastic inside and out and definitely my choice over a Civic Type-R. It’s ridiculous though just how much was not added to the rear seat area, as it should have had two USB-C inputs, heated seats and a centre armrest! Rear vents would have been nice as well, however, not a must.
Better just imagine it as a 2 seater ^^
As an Acura fan, I’m disappointed this vehicle costs 52k + dealer markup. This should cost around 43k-45k MAX. I get that parts and labor have risen, but I don’t think it’s worth 50k+ especially for FWD.
So, what features would you be willing to lose then to get the price down to $43k?
@@qorwinfilms23 you’re implying that the vehicle is worth 50k+ with the features it comes with. It should have more features. For example, a moonroof, ventilated seats, rear passenger air vents and more engine power. I understand that this vehicle is not for everyone, but I am considering other options for this price point.
@@alexis_dc2 It is worth the price Acura is charging. The price isn't arbitrary. Those other features your asking for have a cost associated with them. So adding them may make it more appealing to you and some but it would absolutely increases the cost of the car. You can't just add add add, and not expect the price to go up.
@@alexis_dc2 Technically if you compare the price ratio with the 2001 integra gsr, its actually still cheaper today given inflation. There's many variables but I used the minimum wage (Back then itll take two solid years of minimum wage work to save for a integra gsr. Today, it'll take a year and 9 months). Of course I didn't also calculate markup also living cost but you get the idea of base for base price. But I get it, today there is better competition than before so even if it is a smudge cheaper, the bang for the buck might be some where else as you said.
I loved your voice at 15:32. "Aww, its just a fancy Civic". You blew me away. I'm still laughing!
Awesome looking! Looking forward to the next video. However, a 50K price tag is a lot
I would save a bit more for TLX type S
Agree
I would save a little more for a Honda Prologue. Integra was cool in 00’s. Now the world is different and the money they charge is insane.
I would too but TLX type S is not manual...TLX Type S Manual could make all my dreams come true
@@00_UU You're really comparing a boring npc crossover with an Integra xD
@@00_UU save a little more to fall asleep at the wheel?
I’m so glad to see these reviews coming out! This would be the perfect daily driver!

@@antcruz83 I’m perfectly fine with a rough riding daily driver!
@@antcruz83Source: trust me, bro.

@@tim3172 we will see when the reviews come out . Sport tuned suspension usually equals rough ride.. ask m3 owners lol
@@antcruz83 Don't buy it then old man
After years of hard work and development, Acura has almost recaptured the magic of the gen 3 TL type S. I would love to see a head to head comparison of those two.
Except they really efffed it up by pricing it out of market
Nice review keep up the good work Redline
That looks sweet. I like it. 300 plus hp and tq not bad. Can't wait for the test drive see what the numbers...
AWD please. Makes it more different than civic r.
So these awd comments are so fucking ignorant. Wtf would they make it awd when it beats all of its awd competition in every aspect...... maybe do some research.
I LOVE this car! This spec looks AMAZING! This car does it all. Thanks for the video. Acura redeemed themselves in my eyes with this Type S.
The a spec is plenty of car and with a great package. This is still a unique machine for enthusiasts. The a spec and civic has been a dime a dozen in my neighborhood and I don't know why the integra looks smaller then the civic.
The civic under underpinings doesn't bother me. It's the 60k price before inevitable dealer mark ups for a fwd. At that price I'd have way more options like the g70 if i was going for a sedan, the supra for a fun sports car,..... the list goes to the moon at that price point
Being based off the civic which is a class leader is a good thing
Being based off a class trailing car is not a good thing. But thankfully that’s not the case here
The reason why Acura didn't put a power lift hatch and moon roof is due to weight and price. For the exhaust to make it fit for a Type-R, you'll need to cut and weld the exhaust tips. It is about 3-5 inches longer than the Type-R.
Electric seats also weigh a ton...
finally someone who understand why and get the point
the old integra was almost naked bare minimum the only «luxury» equipement was the power windows
This car looks freaking amazing 😮❤
They really need to make a matching coupe. PLEASE ACURA BRING BACK THE COUPE.
Much money for the specs, should of start at 41
The biggest disappointment of the Acura Integra Type S are the seats...The Type R seats are absolutely perfect! They are gorgeous and extremely supportive yet supremely comfortable! They should make Integra Type R and just have those seats being the difference...they dont need to be in the wild red finish like in the Civic Type R but finished in Acura's material of choice whether its in leather or alcantara...and to be honest with that price increase they really should have put the same beautiful flat bottom perforated leather steering wheel they have in the TLX type S and RDX/MDX models.
I like watching videos by Redline Reviews :)
That blue is insane
All they have to do now is make it as fast as it looks😂
One of the coolest looking cars in that segment you’re correct! But it’s not worth $51,000. You’re paying for the engine I guess!
Nah you're paying for honda greed
That engine isn't worth 50k haha you're paying for nostalgia and greed.
Go look up how much a ‘95 Acura Legend LS coupe cost and then adjust that for inflation. You people under 40 have no idea how much cars have cost historically. A 2008 Acura TL Type S would be $55k adjusted to today’s dollars.
@@dmanatan now factor in the competition and how much it has evolved since 95. You can get lots of other better cars at the same price point.
@@dmanatan I'm not buying a car in 1995. Your comparison is irrelevant. The proper comparison is what is the market today (what vehicles does this compete with, and at what price).
I think Acura did a great job, when 5 hears ago Honda FK8 released most complaints I recalled are the huge spoiler and the exhausts sound too humble, but FK8 quickly sold out and used car price is standing pretty well. Now, Type.S is bere same formula but listened to North America comments and now it should out sales the FK8 and expect it will sold kut soon. One thing I will add to Type S wish list is the similar Honda Log R software upgrade to current Type S (or it actually come with it now ? Your video did not show, I assume it dun have it). That will be a value added for fans want to go to track day and record the results ..... Thx for making this video and this exterior color is looking too good !!
Acura has outdone themselves!
The Civic Type R is marked up an average of $15k over msrp from what I've seen. Wonder if markups on this Integra Type S will be similar. Either way I don't think either of these cars are worth anything over $50k. The Integra Type S should at least have AWD at this price point.
My opinions on this
1. Super overpriced for what you are getting if this was around 40 then cool🙄
2. Dealer markups are going to go crazy!
3. Loved that they went with a manual option only
4. I think Acura thought this would compete with the Supra and now a days it does but back then integras and supras were not comparable
5. Love the car! It looks amazing😍
You're out of your mind if you think this car was ever going to be 40k considering the Civic Type R is 45k. Ultimately MSRP doesn't matter since this car will probably end up at 70k after markups.
@@XyloWang I never said it was going to be around 40!
The apex blue is fire... also the orchid interior is so much better than the red... something about the red interior reminds me of eating at a pizza hut booth in the 90's.
Good review
Hard to pick between this or a Lexus IS500 for just $8K more. Assuming both are at MSRP, Personally I am more than happy to pay that extra $8K.
Yeah but can’t get a stick on the Lexus
@@KoncealedCinema yeah I know that. But that V8 is intoxicating.
@@KoncealedCinema but you get way more with the Lexus, and it’s a Japanese v8
The Lexus is RWD, not sufficient if you live above the snow belt
Get the IS500. V8 is always better than this 4 banger.
It’s a beauty! Still a hard buy at $51k with no sh-awd, especially living in the northeast. 🤔
FWD, a good set of winter tires, and common-sense driving is perfectly fine in the winter.
You can buy a lightly used BMW M340i for $51k. Acura is wildin'
@@miguelbracamontes1494 And then spend another 5k per year in maintenance on that beamer 🤣
Get some legit winter tires then
Looks awesome, but they ruined it by not giving it a real handbrake. At least the exhaust looks better than the oOo exhaust on the CTR. I actually wish Acura did give it a rear wing as an option instead of the little decklid spoiler.
Love the sun roof delete!
I didn't originally like the new integra but this is just a perfect mean looking masterpiece.
I like the look, but the 50k tag is a bit much
Very nice looking but $50k. Wow!!!
Will be over 60K after the dealer bends you over.
55k+*
You can have the best reviews, but trust me, you will not see many of these on the road. You will see race garages and many videos of it, however. Because it's in a price range that will drown it out. $50+ says I have so many options that simply outshine this car.
Should have sold for $39K with options up to $43K.
a ‘95 Acura Legend LS Coupe was $43k when new. Adjust that for inflation. Do the same for the ‘08 TL Type S
52k + tax + markup will put you over 60k thats rs3 territory not worth
I was not born when the OG Integra came out. But maybe it was similar situation when it came out? This will be a hype car in the future
Front end is an eye catcher! Price, is another story. I’d do $50k OTD for this but that’s just me.
If they added the AWD and put in the 12 inch touchscreen this would have been great value and provided more differentiation from the Type R. All of it’s competitors have AWD at this performance level/price range.
Competition over $50k has significantly more acceleration and power as well.
No USB, arm rest or heated seats in the rear ⁉️⁉️⁉️ and it cost how much
Need that sun roof!!
love my Elantra N. got it for msrp and have a 10 year warranty. can buy tons of gas for the extra it would cost for this. plus all the markups
Good much did you pay
The Elantra N is 9/10ths of the CTR and the Integra Type S and I don't understand why people think they should be paying $15k-25k more for that extra 1/10th.
I swear they made this car to go along with Civic Type R markups in the same way that the normal Integra is for Civic Si markups. They KNOW about the markups with the Civics.
That’s all it is, to bring people into the Acura brand.
Acura and Honda don’t get any money from markups the dealerships are the one that keep the profit from markups
I was just in a Honda dealership, a week ago, and the one near me is putting a 7500 markup on the civic SIs still - my first thought was - I may as well do an Integra.
No, this give you more high performance production volume to meet the demand of CTR.
Really wish for a sunroof. But understand the integrity differences
This car looks GREAT!
No power folding mirrors 😮
manual passenger seat, no memory seat, no rear vents, no rear driver's map pocket... the list goes on...
Crazy!
Maybe I am getting old, but I would rather buy a really nice 97-01 Integra Type R
Need a GSR trim with the 2.0T from the TLX, 10 speed auto and manual, with all the “luxury” options. Rear AC and pano roof being the main ones.
That would cost more than $50k 😂
Awesome color.
I wish it had the 10 speed.... Don't kill me 🙈
get something else then, the last of its breed
@@lucianomichel2236 I know I can get something else I was just saying I WISH, Keyword is WISH it had the 10-speed.
You don’t want that, I promise you 😂😂 my 10 speed TLX type S broke at 32K miles… Acura gave me a new one and I’m still having issues
@@moisesescobarr what happened?
I came for the comment section
Gross
LOL surprised it doesn't have a power liftgate 🤣 I guess the no folding mirrors, no moonroof, no hood lift (prop rod), no rear AC vents was not a surprise.
This one is for the racers!
Room for two to wear a helmet on track day.
Deletion of the rear seat 💺 and interior panels from behind the front row and all the way back to save weight.
Manual transmission for a great driving experience and connection.
Extra wide body panels for track performance racing wheels 🛞 with performance tires.
The paint color looks really nice and eye catching.
This Integra Type R does pay homage to its predecessor from the late 1990s in so many ways with the exception of being a 4-door model. Acura didn’t compromise on this at all. The end of the petrol era is also coming for the small inline-4 cylinder engines too and it will be sad to see them go. Enjoy this while it lasts.
Great review as always, Sofyan!
The original Integra Type R had no sunroof so I can see why they would do that with the type s for weight savings
It's for rigidity and lower center of gravity - the weight loss is a bonus tho
The more reviewers I watch review this car, the more I find it that they too find it hard to justify the price for what you get. Acura had so many potential buyers (myself included) until they priced themselves against upper level competition..$7k+ is not worth the nostalgia.
I agree I have a fk8 type r and I was willing to consider the type s. But it’s priced way to high. 48k would have been a better number
It's sad because a large percentage is the dealer markups too. Maybe they should have a special direct order for those cars to cut out the mark ups. But I get it, the price skyrocketed. Back in 2001, Type R was 23 grand. Mustang base was 17. 6 grand difference. Today Mustang is 28k. add the 8k inflation adjustment and it should sit by 36k, which is roughly where the civic R is though (without markup). It does make some sense.
i can't wait to watch you drive a manual on june 19 ala golf r. that was the best. LOL!
Cooper wheels looks great on it
43k starting would be a justifiable price (still too pricey imo) but 50k is a huge no deal.
I never was an Acura fan when it came to it's name as a luxury brand but the Integra Type S caught my attention with it's specs and styling unique to the competitors you mentioned in it's class. But then after watching this review, I remember why I don't care for the Acura brand and taking an easy pass on this. I mean come on... for 50K range car to cheapen out the details... no folding mirrors, no arm rest in back, no back seat AC adjustment in center console... not even a USB, no one touch windows for the back, no auto lift on the trunk, no map on the infotainment, manual seat controls for passenger, no sunroof... it just adds up. This is a luxury brand? 40K sounds better. But 50K and expect the crazy mark-up, no way.
It's insane that the A Spec model has memory driver seat, passenger electric adjustable seat, sunroof and rear passenger USBs but the Type S doesn't. For $52k. You'd expect it to at least match the amenities the $36k model has.
@@Aki_Lesbrinco , I agree and that’s why I would buy the A-Spec. You give up better performance but with more standard features for a lower price it’s a much better value!
I gather, you've never rode let alone drove a DC2 Integra Type R. You had to pay extra for air conditioning. The ride was punishing for your back.
Very good point.
@@TheBreakfastLover this isn't an Integra Type R and we're not in the late 90's or early 2000's either. It's pretty ridiculous that this is missing some of the features that the ASpec has. Especially when this car is supposed to be a better equipped Civic Type R.
love the exterior styling and the performance specs but Acura, if you're listening, power passenger seat, cooled seats, either add an armrest to the rear seats or make it seat 3 in the back, give them a rear vent, and ditch the piano black in the front and hard surfaces in the back.
Takes more than just exhaust swaps to get pops and bangs, that’s a tune issue (air in some places an external rear facing exhaust speaker issue)
I'll take this over type R in a heart beat. Man I love those hellcat wide body kit
Needs AWD, memory seats, and ventilated seats...
TLX Type S..
Feels like the only justification for this price is that it's the more "luxury" version of the Type-R which is extremely ironic since it seems like Acura cut out a ton of features that comes standard on other cars in this segment. I hope it sells well still because I'm happy that they even released this car to begin with. I just hope that Acura listens to their customers and add features that really justifies the price tag.
It’s beautiful
For 50k it should have awd and a dual clutch.
And audi s4 is also 50k
Exactly.. like wut
And it’s not offered in 6-speed….
S4 sucks 😂
@@TheFK8Life Yeah right buddy 🤡
@Byron Nasem VW junk 😆 depreciates like concrete in water - shitty electrical- 😆 if you want to do some 60 rolls in LA I'll show you how shitty your s4 is
Ojai ca what! My hood Ventura county shout out!!
From the back kind gives me RSX vibes. Which it would of been awesome if they had made a 2 door version🤩
Except the type s was $26k brand new for a base trim. $25k more is not worth the better engine and transmission.
@@MrJpags you're talking a car that was made 20 years ago
@@MrJpags Ironically, a very low mileage one would probably still be 26k right now.
$50.000+ for that,.......just NO🤷🏾
Don't forget dealer markup.
You’re basically paying for the Integra name… Might as well get the TLX Type S if you’re stuck on Acura. Or just spend 50K+ on something better.
@Waled121 the TLX is about $5k more expensive. What's better for 50k if you want manual?
Spend 50k on a lexus es
I bet there are millions of ppl who are like "only $50k".
