You can 100% fit a small family into an Integra. That’s one of its big advantages over something like a Mustang or 2 Series or one of the other cars with a smaller backseat.

The Titantic is not a big ass boat though. It’s tiny by modern cruise ship standards. The biggest cruise ship today is five times bigger. We are seeing super yachts that aren’t that much smaller.

A few things: One, the Nintendo Switch is a great console to have around with kids. When the are really little, they can be sleeping on you while you play. And then as they get older, Nintendo’s games are a better fit than what you find on Xbox and Playstation.

Why are you even here? You’re not a car enthusiast. This is a site for car enthusiasts. 

Surely viagra and a gym membership would replace most of what it does, no?

Oh honey, making 400k ain’t GT Black Series money, unless you mean somehow coming up with 400k on top of your yearly salary. A 300k+ car is something that someone making $1 million+ a year or someone with a lot of stock options may consider.

Red Bull currently has the best car design team in the world. They just built by far the best car for this set of rules. Max is also probably the best driver. In addition, their pit stops are the fastest on grid, and their strategy is consistently good. They are like the 1996 Bulls right now. I think we just have to…

This is the rub, though. If ultimate speed is the goal, why not just go full EV? If BMW doesn’t care about the experience, what’s the point of offering gas-powered M cars?

They should put it in the TLX, at least on the Type S, but the Integra and TLX aren’t that crossshopable. The TLX is way heavier and more focused on luxury. It’s a grand tourer. The Integra is a canyon carver. If you want a lot of HP, just get the Type S Integra.

If the clutch and transmission are good, traffic isn’t a huge issue. I drive in DC with mine. The Integra works really well for this. Something with a super heavy clutch and less precise transmission may be less enjoyable, however.

False. 

BMW is largely a manufacturer for posers these day, so this isn’t shocking. They aren’t even offering DCTs. I don’t really understand the purpose of a torque converter M car. If you don’t care about the transmission at all, just go full electric already. 

This is probably accurate, and they probably left sales on the table. It is hard to get an Integra manual. The stock is simply not there. It is easier to get a manual GTI by a lot.

A lot of people (most?) don’t really like driving. They may enjoy being lazy and not having to walk places (although if they are American they may have few options), but they don’t actually like driving. The high levels of distracted driving are evidence that people have other things they’d rather be doing.

The 6-speed Integra is a blast to daily drive. The clutch and transmission combo could not be better. The Integra is also not much more than 3,000 lbs, which is quite toss able by modern standards. 

I would assume the Type S will increase that take rate, although I’d encourage Acura to offer a Type S with a DCT as well.

I suspect they couldn’t make it for 27k with U.S. labor and supply chains. It would be interesting to know what they could make it for here, however. 

I can smell your sweet with your hateful replies.

If you want an amazing manual in a car that is fun and sporty get practical for everything else in life, what is the competition?

The other big environmental thing is that EVs are much more environmentally friendly day one from the lack of particulate pollution. This will be huge for local air quality. It will probably lead to a big reduction in asthma cases, and switching to TVs will save thousands of lives a year from a lack of tailpipe…
