1991 Acura Integra RS review from North America
"Economic, quick and fun with lots of potential"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rusty exhaust.
Replaced both CV joints since I've had the car.
General comments?
This is probably one of the most reliable cars that me or anyone I know has ever owned. Pretty quick considering it's only a 4, and it's a lot of fun to drive when you really get the engine wound up. One of the more surprising things about it is how well of a highway driver it is, with the exception that it can get a little noisy when you pass other vehicles. The other great thing about it is that it's supported fairly well by after-market performance parts makers, and it's pretty easy to add a lot more horsepower to them.
