1988 Honda Integra sx16 review from Australia and New Zealand
"The perfect car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My clutch needed changing when I first bought the car, but after that, not a single problem for 2 straight years!
General comments?
I bought the car while it had done 250,000KMs, it was my first car and I could not have made a better decision in buying it. It has a tremendous amount of power for a 1.6 engine. I have raced VL Commodores, GSR Lancers (Non-Turbo), even a Silvia (Non-Turbo) and defeated them all with no trouble.
The car has very comfortable seats, they last long and look great too. The interior is slightly more advanced compared to other cars made in 1988.
This car never gave me any problems except for the clutch that needed changing. It was a beauty to drive and was steady at all speeds. I regret the day I sold it!
