1996 Acura Integra RS review from North America
"Has it's problems, but for the price it's a joy to drive"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The drivers door lock jammed, easy fix cost me about $40.
Power antenna went at about 12000km.
Engine blew at 140000km.
Clutch blew at 150,000km.
General comments?
It's a fun sporty can and a fun to drive. I have raced it against mustangs, cameros, lancers, civics... pretty much any challenger and it's alway held it's own.
It handles aw some and is a joy to drive.
