Hope so.
This ain't no Integra.
It's a miniature Honda Crosstour.
Looks like the "Fast and the Furious" JDM days are dead ( just like hip hop ).
Glad I was born in the 70's.
This NEW generation needs to pump the kool-aid out of their veins.
Hope so.I doubt the production version will have the Integra graphics on the sides...
heavy...are dead ( just like hip hop ).
dude I ended up with 3 rsx and an si. I like the idea of them bringing back some oem parts that doesn't cost and arm and a leg. Maybe like what they did with the s2000 with that new bumper. Well at least I don't need to make room for another car.Road and Track's article below quotes Acura saying that they couldn't make an Integra coupe because Honda discontinued the Civic coupe, and it wouldn't be cost effective without sharing a platform.

Why the New Acura Integra Had to Be a Five-Door
Acura wanted a new Integra coupe, but it just wasn't possible.www.roadandtrack.com
Makes total sense, with one exception: they did say they were going for the relive-your-youth market, in addition to selling to a new generation of millennials. 5-door makes sense for the millennials. But all the other relive-your-youth cars are way more expensive than $30k. I would have certainly considered paying way more for a coupe, they could probably price a $10k-$15k premium for an Integra coupe and it would still sell better than the NSX. Although I don't know if they can get ROI with that price level, seems like it would do so much as a Halo product even if sales weren't there.
Since they won't build an Integra coupe, I wish they could at least give us some love by reintroducing some of the discontinued RSX parts. Even limited production runs, at their OEM prices, should be able to break even and keep loyalists happy. I've purchased 3 more Honda/Acura vehicles since I bought my RSX, and it would have been four with an Integra preorder if they made a coupe. Loyalty does translate into profits...
What other "relive-your-youth" cars are we talking about, though? We've got the new Z coming out. The Z has always been a dedicated sports coupe, so the fact that the new one is and that it's more expensive than the Integra is a given to me. What else? The BR-Z/86? Nice little car, fun...but again, a dedicated sports car. It's never been anything but a RWD coupe with limited utility.Makes total sense, with one exception: they did say they were going for the relive-your-youth market, in addition to selling to a new generation of millennials. 5-door makes sense for the millennials.

It's 121 lbs actually171 lbs heavier. So its a Civic Si with an extra passenger lol.
All joking aside, it looks pretty cool with all of the additional tech. Would still like to test drive one before committing to buying one. Did they release prices yet? Hopefully the 6-speed doesn't go too much higher than $35k.
I recommend steering clear of any dealership that's looking to charge more than the MSRP. I wish Honda/Acura would take the same position as other manufacturers to stamp out markups above MSRP, but until they do you're likely correct! I'm curious where you heard that it would be the last internal combustion Integra as I must have overlooked that in the articles I've read.It's 121 lbs actuallythe Si is 2,952 lol.
They're starting at $32k, 6 speed models are starting at $37k... They're asking for quite a bit, and you know dealership markup is going to be huge. This is going to be the last internal combustion Integra they ever make though.
