Integra Type R Pros & Cons

Post by S2K_3.11 »

Well after losing my S2000 on Monday :( , I'm looking into other cars.
And considering a Type-R, since it seems great for what you're paying.
I wanted to know the ups and downs (if any) with this car. I've personally driven 2 Type-R's (really hard :D ) and I can simply say "That thing moves!"

And I was looking for a car that has the same specs as an S2 (Performance wise) and this is the only car that came to mind and an RSX Type-S is out of the question. No Prelude's either, been there done that.

Thanks in advance for the help people :)

I won't be driving it in the winter.

pros = nice handling , quick car. doens drink too much gas, eash to drive, it's ITR, like other hondas. it's reliable.

cons = not good for daily driving. cant really take it every where u go.. movies or shopping mall .. car has HUGE chance of getting stolen

Just besure the location where you are going to park it is safe (garage w/ wild dogs inside ready to attack)
