While the Integra Type S isn’t for everyone, it seems to offer explosive performance in an “if you know, you know” package. Expect to learn where this hot Acura falls on the pricing scale closer to its on-sale date in June. That being said, the similarly-powerful Audi S3 starts at $47,895 and doesn’t seem nearly as serious as this Acura. I’d be shocked if it’s cheaper than the $44,390 Honda commands for a Civic Type R.

Now we get to the worrying part – Acura hasn’t announced a price for the Integra Type S but judging by the Civic Type R and the premium a regular Integra commands over a regular Civic Si, it’s going to be expensive. The front seats are heated and upholstered in ultrasuede, the sound system is a 16-speaker ELS-branded Panasonic-built job, there’s a heads-up display in the dashboard, and color choice appears to be decent inside and out. However, the Integra Type S fixes all of those luxury gaps. Oh, and those wanting a heads-up display will be disappointed. The stereo is a Bose unit, which means it’s nothing truly special. For instance, you can’t get heated seats in a Civic Type R, nor is the upholstery anything special. See, the Type R is a hot hatch apex predator that had to fit in an almost reasonable price bracket, so some of the livability things you’d expect for north of $40,000 were omitted.

To create the Type S, Acura basically took the Honda Civic Type R’s guts and shoved them into something nicer. Say hello to the 2024 Acura Integra Type S. While Acura doesn’t seem inclined to slash pricing or build a coupe variant, a hot version is on its way.

It’s not a coupe, there’s no really hot option, and the cheapest manual models costs a whopping $37,495. When the reborn Acura Integra debuted, the internet gave it a little bit of vitriol.
