2001 Acura Integra Review Summary & Specs
LS Hatchback
Still a great coupe in spite of its age.
Summary & Specs
reviewed by
In a class of cars that places a premium on fresh styling, the appearance of the current Integra--though still attractive and distinctive--has become a bit familiar. On the other hand, the Integra has matured into one of the best small sporty coupes (and sedans) in the business. Consider price and value and it all but stands alone. Press coverage has been minimal lately, because there's been little change from year to year, and a new design is around the corner. Until it arrives, however, the current Integra GS-R is still one great sports coupe.
Whether you choose the coupe or the sedan, you're buying value and you're going to have fun.
