Great content as always! Ever since your video about the suspension on your type R, I was wondering what you would think of the new type S. I was really hoping the type S could undercut the type R with less of a price bump and more availability at msrp as it doesn't have that branding effect of being a type R.

Tbh alcantara isn't all that great. It's nice until you actually own a car with it on any touchpoint and then you have to deal with maintaining it, which isn't the WORST thing in the world but it's a hell of a lot more involved than a nice leather interior that you don't have to think twice about other than the occasional wipe down and conditioning. I'll take leather over alcantara any day

Another review I watched said exactly what you're assuming. They showed a dino torque curve of each vehicle. S does have more midrange torque than R. R is turned for track at the top end while S is tuned for road, a "drivers car" first instead of track first. In addition S is 20% softer in each damping setting compared to R. R is stiffer even in comfort. Yes Acura has tuned the engine differently than Honda. You're impressions are spot on 👍

Topher, it would take a foam lining to these tires to make a noticeable difference tire noise even with their own compound. Idk if you say this later in the video, but they added dozens of pounds worth of sound deadening material all over the car, so of course the tires will sound quieter.

Acura have achieved something amazing by making what everyone saw as "The softer, inferior, luxurious Type R" into the DEFINITIVE version of the Type R! (Unless you do a lot of track driving of course :) ) This is better looking, more luxurious, softer riding, has a more powerful engine and since this is only released in North America this doesn't have to comply with noise regulations, so it sounds WAY better than the muted Type R? UNBELIEVABLE. ❤️🔥 Well done Acura, I don't even like the regular Integra or other Acura models but this Type S is the only way I would have my Type R if I had the money 🥰

Haven't seen any reports of the FL5 having any serious overheating issues. My track time with it, it stayed cool as a cucumber the entire day at or near redline. Weather was between 75-85F on the day. I guess you could push it up to/ or over the limit in like 115-120+ degree weather... But if those are your consistent normal running conditions, any car would require a bump up in cooling.

In my younger years, I owned a 94 Integra LS, 00 Integra GSR, 01 Integra Type R, and 05 RSX Type S. Most were heavily modified (shame on me), and I loved them all for different reasons. Wish I never gave up the ITR, but I traded it for an 85 Porsche 944 Turbo which was also a blast. I realize I'm the target demographic for the Integra Type S since I'm in my 40s and grew up with the original, but this is a hard sell for the price. $25k in 1997 is essentially $48k with inflation, so I guess this isn't too far off, but it's still tough with so many other options. I've since moved on to Porsches and definitely wouldn't give up my Cayman (or even Macan) for this. I know the new vs used argument always comes up, but would you really take this over a gently used Cayman S or GTS for nearly the same price?

I owned the 2000 Civic Si (bought it new). I had the body kit on it for a couple months with the 18in wheels. I quickly got rid of it for stock body parts, and put lighter weight 16in Motegi wheels and Eibach springs. I realized I rather have a fun driving car than a flashy car. I've owned MK2+3 Supras, FC RX-7, 240sx, 2nd gen Integra for short period of time, so I always loved the lightweight fun cars, minus the MK3 Supra which was a pig. I to am in my 40s and wouldn't be able to justify spending $40,000 - $50,000 on a reimagined childhood car. I held on to my BMW E90 for 12 years, still got it, but wanted a lightweight fun car and bought Mazda3 hatchback AWD. I really wanted an ND Miata but couldn't find one for a good price. It's comfortable, quiet, practical, AWD for the snow, decent MPG (36.8 mpg on a recent 100 mile trip), interior is best in it's class, and it darts around easily in southern New England abysmal streets and traffic, and the hatchback makes it easy for those trips to Home Depot for some potting soil and mulch. I slapped on some Pirelli P Zero AS UHP which are 4lbs lighter than stock OE per wheel and it corners great with confidence, combined that with just a drop in K&N for better intake sound and 93oct (87 recommended) for Mazda high 13:1 CR, you get far less timing pull at top end during hot summer days and you have yourself a fun reliable car. Will do 19lbs forge wheels next spring, stock 26lbs are way too heavy, knocking 40+lbs of rotational mass, will skip the lowering spring since my 40ish year old back would not enjoy it, neither would the car with these piss poor New England roads. If anyone is looking for a $50,000 sports car, the M240i with the proven B58 engine starts at $52,000 (2024 pricing). Just a thought. Before anyone say but it's BMW reliability, well BMW is tied with Mazda for 3rd, right behind Toyota and Lexus for most reliable.

Great review as always, Topher! I agree with everyone here; this is a beautiful car, and has the performance to back it up. Unfortunately, to me at least, the car just doesn’t make sense at this price point. $55k MSRP+dealer markups… if you’re a diehard fan, yes, it would make sense, but for some of us, $55k is a lot of money. There are a lot of faster and funner cars at this price point. I think what made Hondas/Acuras so attractive back in the day was that their cars were so affordable, moddable, and a lot of fun to drive. This unfortunately takes away from the affordable side of things…

they couldn't do (wider) metal fenders in the front? I can understand in the rear as that requires a very different quarter panel, but the front fenders are two individual pieces (and associated liners). There is something about the tack-on fender flares that seems off. I'm sure it will be color dependent, but stamping bulgier front fenders seems like it should have been. (yes, stamping metal requires new forms, but we are talking Honda/Acura here.....)
