      That's what I like to hear. If a few people manage to make it close to a million on original stuff, odds are they were well built vehicles.
      My old Ford Escort made it to ~240k before I sold it. Basically nothing went wrong... AC on it was godly, too. Would make your hands go numb after about 15 minutes full blast. I'm always disappointed when I get into a modern car and the AC barely chills. If you can't see your breath when you exhale, it's not doing a good enough job chilling your car.

For the time, it's engineering was pretty tight and accurate. around the same time, a cousin of mine had the Legend.

    I'm almost sure this was the model that Acura/Honda lost money on to get their reputation up to par. If Acura were to re-sell the Integra GS-R again with the 1.8L 170hp engine, I would buy it in their emerald green. The suspension and engine were different than the Civics of that era, as well. My only gripe is that they came with a 5-speed manual. If I had the time and money, I would buy one of these used, strip it, repaint it, put a K20 or K24 with a supercharger, a 6-speed manual, drive it for the next 30 years.

    Fun fact is that in Japan the last gen Integra was based off the RSX that we have in the U.S. In the U.S obviously we can't necessarily import a DC5 Integra until the next decade unless if you know a better way to import one. Which I have seen people import some rare cars that aren't necessarily federally legal but only use it for show or very special occasions like in Florida and California and probably more states.

    My integra actually gets surprisingly great gas mileage. I drive in bumper to bumper interstate traffic and sit at stoplights a lot. I spend probably 40% of the time driving normally, the other 60% is slow crawling traffic. I recently got an average of 29 miles per gallon in my 4 speed automatic, 4 door ls integra. That's really amazing considering it almost never gets the chance to drive normally. It's also the heaviest and least efficient version, also mind you its a quarter of a century old.

Only thing my Acura has ever needed was an alternator, pair of driveshafts and a couple of timing belts. Original AC compressor is finally getting a bit noisy, but it still works, never even added any freon to it.

    My dad had a 1994 Acura Integra. Great car. With minimal maintenance oil changes and the like he got 270k miles on it everything original when he finally traded it in. Still ran great

      Possibly, living up north. But Acura/Honda’s are way better than most other Japanese brand living up north. It’s on par with Toyota and beat out only slimly by Lexus. Sometimes in Canada you can see 90’s Civics and Accords everywhere. In comparison, hardly any Nissan/Subaru/Mazda exist any more
