That is an identical look alike to the late 80s Accord. 

This. I see more 4-door Integras on the road than coupes

How do you know how this will handle? Have you driven it? The original sold as many 4 door models as coupes and had 140hp for most of the models. 7.2 seconds to 60mph. Even the Type R was only in the mid 6's which is what the current Si does... and that’s not apples to apples.

Why is that a bad thing? That’s a great-looking car. The Civic that it’s based on is boring AF. The Civic Type R is a garrish cartoon of a car. The TLX is one of the most distinctive best-looking sport sedans currently available. The original Integra was boring. Simple, good design, but boring.

I think your anger is misplaced on the Bronco instead of the selling dealer where it should be

I’m not sure what state you are in but do they have an equivalent of California’s B.A.R. (Bureau of Automotive Repair) ?  Sounds like you may have a case with the previous shop. As a shop service manager myself, it is highly possible there could still have been an air bubble in the system that didn’t get burped out…

On top of that, the L67 Supercharged 3800 was actually more reliable than the N/A motor. The supercharger sits on top of the engine so it’s metal touching metal. Whereas the N/A motor has a plastic manifold on the metal engine. That’s a big reason for the issues with these motors.

This. Absolutely this. I’ve owned 25 cars in my life all over the board... and NOTHING has given me as much pure joy, pleasure, smiles, & attention as this thing. Even daily drove it in North Dakota winters w/ a set of winter tires no problem. I plan on getting another one but a cabrio this next time. Best bang for…

But it rides like shit

Kinda reminds of what Dodge did with the air intake on the Challenger Hellcats.

Hi David. My name is Charlie and I run a shop in Moorhead, MN (Fargo’s twin across the river) called Matt’s Automotive Service Center.

Let’s be real.. You don’t daily the M3 because you’re worried it’ll lose value or incur some expensive mechanical breakdown. Amiright?

That’s the tailgate of the truck behind it you’re seeing coming thru

The front end looks like the new Mitsubishi SUV concepts while the rear looks like the current-gen Lincoln MKX.

It’s a good thing you still have it so you have something to drive while your Aston is in the shop. Or does the dealer give you a loaner? Can you request a One-77 service loaner? :)

I think I’m most impressed listening to the soundtrack on this new engine. It rev’s impressively high for an American V8. Just listening to it I kept expecting him to shift much sooner, but yet it keeps on revving. Glorious
