2000 Acura Integra GSR review from North America
"A cross between a Civic and a M3"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Hit 1 deer. Front end damage was acceptable considering the speed. Still safe and legal to drive after the accident.
Nothing else.
General comments?
This car is a real driver's sports sedan. It can truly move if it wants to. Beats a 1997 M3 in a straight line.
Comfort and road-noise are a bit off for a luxury car though. It really is more of a super-sporty, leather-seated Civic than a luxury car. The sound dampening is mediocre and the interior trim is plastic.
It is definitely an excellent car and highly recommended. If you can find one that has had responsible owners, it would be hard to find a better deal for a sports car.
Needing synthetic oil and premium gas are the only wallet-signs that it is fancy car.
