1994 Acura Integra LS coupe review from North America

When I first got the car, the dealer could not fix the engine temperature problem. Every time I go downhill on a highway, the engine temperature goes towards the red zone. On surface street, it was fine, even if I had the A/C on. When I finally took it to my personal mechanic, he said that someone had installed the thermostat in the reverse position, he immediately replaced it with a new one in the correct position, and the problem is gone ever since. I have driven the car in the desert on hot summer days with A/C after the repair, the engine temperature never when beyond normal.

Car handles great. I have upgraded to a set of lighter 15 inch custom wheels with 195/55 R15 tires, it rides / turns great. I had the car up to its top speed of 135mph on track, it glues to the ground. It is the ultimate sports car if you are shopping on a budget. It even fits two bikes inside the car, the rear seats folds down. If you are buying a used one, make sure to ask the mechanic to replace all the belts and hoses, so you won't have to worry about it for many years to come.
