  • The Acura Integra Type-S has a $7K premium over the Honda Civic Type-R (excluding any sort of markup...) and it is the better car, but does it really matter in the end? It Depends...

      Also: suspension settings that are more usable day in and day out, exterior styling alternative (including wing delete--for those who prefer it), more prestigious corporate badge, more exterior and interior color choices, and last but not least . . . Performance Car of the Year.
      (And if the CTR has a $7K dealer markup vs. none for the ITS, then you essentially get these goodies for free.)

      It is not like you can get a R-type with out a big mark up. The Type S you can get it for MSRP in many areas. So based on the current market conditions, they are equal price.

    Some more important benefits of floating rotors is to reduce disc warping by allowing the rotor to freely expand and contract. It also reduces heat transfer into the wheel bearings and prevents the grease inside from getting cooked.

    I dig the ITS but the CTR just feels like a more special car of the two in person. The interior of the type S just feels kinda bland compared to the interior of the type R. The seats are much better, the odometer is sportier, the data logger, colored belts and its also going to have better resale value as well.

    Honestly ive been able to find the Type S at msrp pretty easily but have yet to find a dealership without a 25k markup on the type R. If were just looking at msrp the R is the way to go but, at least in the Midwest, the Type S ends up being the more affordable option between the two.

    They couldn’t be bothered to give us a third seat in the rear… Or rear vents? For an Acura, I expect more. My old accord has rear vents… it isn’t exactly a high cost feature.

  • @evanescent0311
    @evanescent0311 3 місяці тому

    it’s subjective. for me ITS wins bc of the ADM plaguing the CTR. ITS looks are the only way to for me but I really wish it had the option for CTR seats, in black.

    • @ryuradeon
      @ryuradeon 3 місяці тому

      Saying that the Type-S is too soft is the same as saying the Type R in sport mode is too soft....Sport+ in the Type-S roughly = Sport mode in Type-R. I own a Type-S and a friend of mind owns the Type-R....They are mechanically identical, and the only difference in suspension has to do with software that controls the dampers depending on drive settings...

      Meanwhile FL5 owners are buying the ITS suspension module because the stock one is so stiff that hurts performance. 🤷‍♂
