1996 Acura Integra consumer reviews

Bought mine from a guy I used to work with in 2014. It needed a radiator and a wheel bearing, leaked oil, ripped leather seats, a few dings, and the other standard issues with a 225,000 mile car. I replaced timing belt and water pump, radiator, wheel bearing, camshaft seals, and bought new tires for it. I personally have wrecked it twice (oops) and 60,000 insanely brutal still-leaking-oil, redline it daily, miles later in 2017, the auto transmission decides it doesnt want to pull anymore. Looked for a 5 speed swap for around 4 years while the car sat under a maple tree and attempted to rot away, but money or parts availability was always an issue. Ended up slappin a 4spd GSR tranny in it last year (2021) after my other car decided it needed to start puking all its coolant out through the tailpipe via the cylinder 3 exhaust valve. My Teggy is a true trooper. A new battery, fresh oil change, some gas, and a throttle position sensor was all she needed to drive again. And tires. Its now over 300,000 miles, STILL leaks oil to the point where it look like its on fire from where it drips on the exhaust pipe, and I continue to drive it like I stole it. It really just goes to show that you dont need to be gentle with these beasts. Just remember to keep fluids checked and topped off and keep maintenance up to date. As long as there aren't any major engine performance mods, you can dog these cars everyday and its like they don't care. At least mine doesn't.

I love it. I?ve had it since I was 16 and still drive her to this day. Very responsive, nimble and fast! She?s 21 years old now and still running stronger than ever!

This car is incredibly reliable. Only routine maintenance is required and it gets very good gas mileage (30 mpg highway). It is also a very good looking car with plenty of storage space when used as true hatchback, i.e. when back seats are down.

It's great vehicle to drive. Gas saver. Sport looking. Very reliable. The interior is as nice as the exterior. You get your money's worth on this car.

It was very nice, but it was a little bit too expensive. This vehicle would be perfect for the person who is trying to impress. I know numerous of persons would love the drive this vehicle around just to show it off

When it comes to tuner cars the aura Integra is top in its class. This car has good value in the Trenton area. Most likely people need a new, reliable ride for cheap so this car is a good pick.

I bought a 4 door GS-R new in 1994 and still drive it daily. Now 18 years old and periodically get some body work done, usual maintainance, but mechanically NO PROBLEMS! Local mechanic cannot get over how slick the shfting is. Have 135,000 miles and thought of giving it to my 17 year old son who is getting his license but decided it's too much car for him.

acura integra 1996 manual 5 speed. excellent car. kind of bland interior. very reliable. which the wheels can be bigger, had to replace the factor 14" to 15".

theses cars are some of the best cars ever made! they have a ton of power! whenever you need it to get up and go it will with ease. i have a 98 integra with 160000 miles and not one thing has ever gone wrong with it. the handling in these cars are top notch. they are also great on gas. regular oil changes and the car will last forever!

bought this car... and fell in love with everything it has.... the right amount of horsepower.. and driving confort.... great for first cars.... and great family cars...
