2023 Acura Integra A-Spec Manual Is a Fun Sporty Sedan That Handles So Good!

👋 Let's take the all new 2023 Acura Integra A-Spec through the mountains! Get our impressions of the 2023 Integra A-Spec with a manual transmission ripping through some twisty mountain roads! It's here! This new Integra handles really well and we were surprised with how flat it was in the turns! Not much power but it was still a blast rowing through the gears! The all new 2023 Acura Integra! An iconic JDM name is back from Acura and today we check out this 2023 Integra A-Spec with a 6 speed manual transmission! The new Integra A-Spec for 2023 is currently the top trim car. We get a turbocharged 1.5 liter 4 cylinder engine with about 200 horsepower and 192 Torque and a limited slip front differential. Now 0-60 is very slow at 7.7 seconds in the manual and 7 seconds in the CVT automatic. So it's not all too quick. But it feels peppy around town and you can play with the power and use every bit of it without breaking speed limits. The exterior styling with the 2023 Acura Integra A-Spec is pretty sharp! You can see a very similar shape to the new Honda Civic but there are more points and sharp lines. I especially love the name Integra stamped into the bumpers like on the old car. Interior has a red leather and black two tone design with red micro suede. Pretty nice on the inside however it does feel more like an economy car then a luxury car. However it's nice enough for the price point. There is a bit of wind noise and the seats are a little hard on the base, but it offers a lot of interior space and amenities with fantastic tech. It's fun to row through the gears and there is enough feedback in the clutch pedal. This is a very forgiving manual to drive and the new Integra would be a great first car or first manual car. Easy to drive and handles really good for a fun practical car.
Finished in Platinum White Paarl for $38,000 do you think the new Acura Integra is worth the price. It's about $8,000 more than the 2023 Honda Civic Si which is the same car underneath. I think the new 2023 Integra is geared more toward the Lexus IS and Audi A3. It's a bit cheaper and offers the same acceleration but it's a more fun car! The Toyota GR86 feels like the two door version of this. So I think the 2023 Integra really is a practical version of the GR86. Even though for the same price you can buy a 2023 WRX, GR Corolla or GTI, which all are significantly faster cars with more performance, I feel like the new Integra is more focused on the buyer who wants a normal entry level luxury car with a sporty vibe. Cool option for sure!

I just bought the car last week and I'm in love with it. It's a beautiful blend of style, performance, amenities/tech and fuel efficiency. And yes, the different drive modes do change the dampeners. Additionally it has limited slip differential, which is great for pulling you in and out of those corners. It also pipes in a little exhaust sound with sport mode, which I actually like. Today I hit 44mpg on a fifty mile highway drive, which is awesome. Overall, I feel I made a great choice in getting the car. Great review guys!

Glad you are not blinded by nostalgia and just view it as a good car.

Liking the new acura reviews popping up lately! Channel was sorely lacking them

Just picked mine up yesterday. It’s an incredible manual sedan and a great value.

Ton of fun to drive!

4 days in with my 2023 Integra Elite a spec Canada 🇨🇦 version and still love it and will as long as no issues

[PlasmadaeDal]

I agree with you! Even tho it's 4D, it's like the extra doors aren't there! Total sweet spot. The more I drive it, the more I like it as you really learn the driving dynamics amd the shifting. The other thing is, the fuel economy is fantastic. Hard to beat!

I like that thumbnail!! Amazing review bro.

[brentnelson]

Just bought a 2024 ASpec Tech 6MT yesterday. Fun daily driver. 😊

This and the Si benefited from the last gen type r. Honda learned how to build a great fr and used that knowledge on the current gen car. Enjoy these while you can. Electrification is coming.

I have the 2023 Civic HB Touring and I am trying to get a deal (trading-in the Civic) on the Acura Integra. This review helps me a lot to make a decision. Thanks a lot.

Taught my boys how to drive manuals in my 2018 Elantra GT Sport. (N-Line)

[cwaptin-feminity]

For my newer car list this is first, the Elantra N second, GR Corolla third, the 400 z fourth and last the Diesel Tahoe

[sunnyvalentino]

The Acura fixes a huge issue with the Civics. Road and wind noise reduction. Those cars are horrible on the freeway with noisy cabins. The stereo is also A+. Is there more feedback from the controls vs the Supra?

[oreally]

I'm sorry Honda, but I can't get excited about 200hp.. Good review none the less Guys..

[CT-]

It doesn't feel like a sedan .... because its a hatchback :-).

[terrancemoore]

You think you can get a Toyota GR corolla, but with the mark ups. I don't know.

[bogeyman]
