I had a 96 (which got stolen) and then a 97 Integra (2 door) - and for what it is, I I love it. Everything is designed well, and I think it still looks good today. Distinctive, but not overly showy, sporty while not a sports car.No real problems (beyond the fact that it used to be that people liked to steal them), still running great.

integras are a nice car, if u know how to fix the problems urself. any car is good if u know how to work on them. if u do get a integra, make sure u get a good car alarm. they're a hot car that ppl like to steal for parts. when getting a car alarm, get a wheel bar also from auto zone for $20. trust me. the wheel bar maker also has a guaranty of $1000 if ur car does get stolen when used properly.

I have several friends with these cars. They are good, reliable cars. They are also very easy to work on, and cheap. I have a 93 Interga GS and I would not trade it for anything(except a skyline lol). Overall most Hondas are the same in this aspect. The most reliable out of the 3 engine options is the LS(B18B1). It puts out 142 bhp and like 127 tq. But it will save you gas, and if you want more power easy, just turbo it. about half way through the production of the DC2s(94-01 integra) they went from obd1 to obd2 which makes changing engines from newer ones to older cars a little more difficult as the ecu and wiring harness will need an adapter to fit properly.All in all it is a very good car, cheap and reliable.
