Their marketing I definitely agree.

After Toyota Japan did a collab with with Initial D, Acura releases their anime mini series. Couldn't Acura come up with something else?

a bit smaller than the Civic.



From the looks, it looks like seats are interchangeable.

That C-pillar window is just an eyesore and a textbook example of form over function. In the Civic, at least it has a somewhat functional size. But in the Integra? It would have been better off had Honda seal it up completely.

Or give it little pop-out windows like the old EF/ED hatches

How’s that for nostalgia

So good. I love the little details and background during the car meet/garage scene, before the NC1 is revealed. Want more of this series.

US specs suggest CVTs for all but the top trim. Can be a bit different here in Canada.

Here are some colour choices

Does the current gen Honda Civic SI also come in CVT? Or is it 6 spd manual only.

If they do, then I can see why they went with CVT instead of a different tranny to go to their parts bin and save costs. But if they don't, then I don't know why they didn't go with their 8DCT or 10 speed auto.

The current gen Civic Si is 6MT only. The CVT is used with all other trims in the Civic.

The 1.5t is only paired to 6sp or CVT, if they pair it with the 10sp there's probably R&D involved and new SKUs. The Integra is going to be a parts bin car and that's probably why.

The manual option is a set of cookie crumbs to the enthusiasts, but car makers know who buys new cars. The take-up rate for manuals is very small nowadays.

Enthusiasts make a lot of noise on the internet, but in reality, the majority of enthusiasts are cheap and only buy cars second-hand at the bottom of the depreciation curve.

Can you not tell everyone the truth, trying to get discounts over here on a 20 year old BMW wagon

BMW probably knows this better than most, which is why you can no longer buy a manual BMW except in M-trim in North America, considering all of the bellyaching from enthusiasts.

I'm glad the manual is on the top trim rather than the base trim which seems to have become the norm. Disappointed but not surprised by the CVT - thought they'd put the 8DCT in there since it's paired with the 1.5T motor in China. Guess development budget didn't allow for it.

Getting very curious what the Type S of this looks like - I'm assuming it'll make less power than the CTR (272hp?) but will it be FWD or SH-AWD? Without SH-AWD why would anyone buy it over a CTR?

Type - S should be 2L turbo, 252 hp and FWD. There's no way they would put the money in to make it sh-awd.

The blue hides some of the ugliness in the yellow, but it is just exactly that -- less ugly, which means it is still ugly LOL~
