2000 Acura Integra SE special edition review from North America
"Great first car! I love it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have just recently purchased this car from a young woman as my first vehicle.
When I bought it at 136,000 km the rear brakes needed to be replaced and the timing belt, & few other minor things under the hood.
The pedals are starting to wear out.
Other than that, nothing has or did go wrong with the car since I have had it.
General comments?
Very reliable car.
Interior is built to last. Looks NEW!
I'm 6'2, 220lbs it's somewhat more challenging to get out of and have sufficient leg room when driving, but it's to be expected.
My Integra is a Year 2000 Special Edition package and comes with a nice tint, alloys, CD player and ample trunk space for hockey bag, clubs, etc.
*5 speed manual, 140hp, 130ish lbs torque. It's no Porsche, but it's enough to give all of the Cavaliers, Sunfires and Civics a run for their money.
I live in Canada, and I am not too confident in it as a winter vehicle. It's front wheel drive, very light and minimal ground clearance.
I guess I will be parking it once we get 40cm of snow overnight.
