Acura Integra Type S – The Enthusiast’s Sedan
/
/
3comments
The Acura Integra Type S is a 320-hp sports sedan that’s built for daily-duty greatness. It’s a blast on a curvy road, but also comfortable and enjoyable for the drive to and from work. It’s a great dual-natured machine. [Disclaimer: Acura tossed me the keys to the Type S and included a tank of fuel.]

Loving a car during a weeklong press loan is one thing, loving it once it’s in your driveway is another. I absolutely adored the new Civic Si when I first drove it last summer. However, six months later I bought one and it just didn’t align to my newly changed lifestyle, so I sold it…

Having recently sold my Land Cruiser Prado (more on that later), I have been casually shopping for something new. A local Jeep dealer had a used Grand Cherokee V8 in an almost perfect trim for me. After my test drive (I liked the GC, but probably not that one, this was an Overland but I…

The 2024 Cadillac CT5-V is no Blackwing but it’s still pretty dang good

Many of us would go so far as to call Cadillac’s Blackwing cars heroic, iconic, and legendary sports sedans. GM’s luxury brand might not lead the realm in the world’s fancy department but it sure knows how to build chassis and a saloon that drives like a much smaller car. But not everyone wants or…

The average new car price in the U.S. is just over $48,000, which is a lot. When I walked into a Honda dealer in 1999 and purchased a manual Civic EX, their small CR-V SUV had a starting sticker price of $19,365, with the top-spec trim CR-V EX starting at $20,865. Now I’m doing some…

OK, hoons, yesterday I celebrated Wagon Wednesday (on a Tuesday) with my “State of the Wagon Address“. While Jeff thought maybe I was making fun of him for his unfinished Mercedes wagon project, I was really lamenting the state of new wagons in North America currently. I know, I know, no on buys them, yadda,…

Honda Motocompacto is a modern mobility solution that’s also fun

The Honda Motocompacto is a modern take on a cult classic. It’s the reimagined version of the Motocompo scooter from the early 80s. That was called a trunk bike and it was designed to fit in the rear of the subcompact Honda City. Today, the Motocompacto is here and it weighs half as much, as…

My fellow North Americans, the station wagon as we know it continues to be replaced by high riding versions of itself. As a serial car buyer I’m always car shopping for the next thing. Lately I’ve considered replacing my Wrangler Unlimited with something a little more comfortable, a little quicker (300 horsepower or more), has…

Let me get two things out of the way right up front; no one is paying me to write this post, and yes I should maybe slow down behind the wheel. That first bit? I’m referring to the fact that this will sound like an ad but it’s in fact just me being supremely impressed…
