She was 17 when I purchased her from my mechanic in 2007; best used car I've ever had, and I'll keep her til the wheels fall off, and she can't go no more. And I'll do my best to keep her in repair! She still runs, but her 4th gear and torque box are going out. (264,000 miles, who wouldn't have issues!) She has the "Sport-Drive" feature, which means I can "force" her to stay in third gear or lower, til I can get her fixed up again, but now I can't go on the highway. So she's local driving only. She's tiny, which is scary at times, with all the bigger vehicles blocking my view, and her seats were sporty when she was made, but uncomfortable at best now, because of age. I drive her now about once a week, to keep her battery and the gas in her tank running like they should. I don't want to hurt her worse than she is right now. My hope is to get her to my brother-in-law, a retired mechanic, who has promised me, and owes me. She has other issues, and he's going to help me with those. Jul 13, 2014

Loved, loved, loved this car. From the performance to styling to handling,
this was the perfect car for me at the time. It ran a stock 16 sec at the
track weekly, and still got me around Chicago and then LA when needed.
Never wanted to let go of it. Aug 24, 2011

B16a swap loads of fun. Instead of going with a turbo i opted for suspension upgrades, handles great with skunk 2 coilovers. Ls tranny, so its not as quick as most hondas but 5th gear goes well past 145mph. from being lowered so much theres some squeaks and the stereo is crap but when your at wot you can hear it anyway. =)Jul 20, 2011

no safety value since the vehicle has no airbags. Small and not good for people. back seat unusable. trunk space is ok. Looks good for a 20 yr old vehicle. A bit more power wouldnt hurt. Another dependable vehicle from acura.Feb 11, 2011

This car was fun to drive, but like most high-mileage Hondas, it had its fair share of problems as well. There's nothing more finicky than a high-mileage Honda. That being said, it still got relatively good mileage (when using premium gas). There's a ton of aftermarket parts and engines for these things, so they're still worth having a look at if you're strapped for cash. Just be aware that they definitely require regular maintenance attention.Jan 08, 2011

This is a good car but the maintenance wasn't done right and now I'm suffering Great engine tho lots of power it dose drive pretty good too. handling is a little splashy but once you get it to hook up it loves the corners.Dec 17, 2010

I loved that car. Quality was top notch. From Honda I expected nothing less. The 130 HP 4 cyl was plenty of power for normal use, and while I did see 100 mph once, it was not at it's limit. The styling was sleek and attractive. I didn't care much for the texture of the seat upholstery fabric, it was rough, though the seat construction was comfortable and easily adjustable. I think it got 30 mpg hwy. Neither the back seat head or legroom was not generous. I had my best date ever in that car, with the girl of my dreams. I drove us up to Turner Falls from Dallas, where we had a picnic by the river. On the way back, she fell asleep with her head in my lap. She still has beautiful, long blond hair, but she married another guy. Sigh. At least I believe she's happy. I have a 2000 Accord, which has similar driving characteristics. They're great cars.Apr 02, 2010

purchased car from acura dealer july 2008. car had 170k, was traded in by original owner and was in excellent condition. i have driven the car for just over a year, putting more than 60k on it. we use this car for all of our commuting, and weekend getaways. we often get more than 37mpg on highway, even with 235k+. we have had no maintance problems except plastic radiator, cost $110 to purchase new one intstalled ourselves.. can't say enough good about car, with gas prices always hanging around $2.75 to $3.oo per gallon car has paid for it self in the 60k+ miles we have driven it.. will keep car for many years to come... we purchased this car because, my son in law has one, he purchased new and has over 345k. he has replaced clutch at 314k, and his raditor also broke.

Its a very fun car to drive could use a turbo.. Great on gas mileage, little small, but still gets the job down for what I need to do. And yet still can get out and move at the same time! I couldn't ask for a funner car that is still cheaper then a Lotus Elise. Sep 10, 2009

One of my favorite cars. bought in 1998. Put on Konis, ground controls, when everyone was rocking neuspeed springs.
one of the sweetest looking cars that Honda ever built. first of the B series engines in America.
lots of interior room. wish i never sold the car.

This was a great car. It had above average
performance, got great gas milage, and handled
like a track racer! It looked good, and had a
great green house, with no blind spots. Typical
of Honda products, it was well built and retained
a higher than average resale value!Aug 24, 2009

Power to weight is alright, but the handling is sweet :) Now that I have rims on it it's slower but looks more modern. Maybe thinking on swapping in a type R in the future, and lowering it an inch or maybe going to 18's and thinner tires.Jul 28, 2009

It Has Way Too Much Rust And Over 400,000kms On It.
Handles Really Well.
Has Pretty Good Power Thanks To The Intake, Cams And Exhaust.
Costs Practically Nothing To Drive Even When Bagging On It.
The Exhaust Is An HKS Cat Back System And It Sound Amazing.Feb 05, 2009

The problems that I had with this car can't really be blamed on the manufacturer. They can be blamed on the people who didn't put the electrical system back together after it had been wrecked. It was good looking car and really fun to drive, with some pretty good gas mileage for the day. It just had electrical problems that caused all sorts of fun issues.Dec 22, 2008

Everything about this car is awesome. The style is unmatched, the quality is incredible. The acceleration is phenomenal, the top speed is...breathtaking, even from that little 1.8 litre engine, that pushes almost a hundred and fifty horsepower. I loved mine, and i modified the heck out of it. Dec 17, 2008

It is made Honda, runs well and was cheap. It also gives me a project to work on. I dis like the currant tint job and the stock speakers that are in it.Jun 21, 2008

I would highly recommend this type of vehicle to a friend. It sucks that sometimes this baby needs repairs but over all it is a good ride. It would of been a lot nicer if it was kept better by the previous owner.Jun 10, 2008

Gotta love these little cars, even with a 1.8L l4 engine it's still got the balls to keep up with most V6's. Gas mileage is great also due to Honda engineering. Has a tendency to rust like most other Hondas though.Mar 10, 2008

The transmission (I guess) is loud, and hard to take on long trips. I love the spunky reactions of the car, and the handling. The power steering seems to whine also.
Except for the fan running and draining the battery, it's a reliable car.May 14, 2007

Automatic 1990 integra gs
Hi just wanted to ask some advice. I have an 1990 integra gs but an automatic. I already installed the AEM short intake, but is it worth upgrading the exhaust, and headers as well? Will it do more harm than good?
