Honda Integra Luxury Car Review
The new Honda Integra Luxury car is well priced addition to the Integra family with a retail value of $42,450. It is obvious that Honda wanted to release a luxury car at a price that fits a larger number of drivers needs. I was glad to see that the price for this vehicle was decent, but at the same time I was curious to know whether or not the quality of the vehicle would take a hit because of this. The answer to that question is no. The quality is just what you would expect out of an Integra Luxury vehicle, which is superb at the very least. You certainly get what you pay for and there is no shortage on features. Even if you choose to go with a standard Integra model, it comes equipped with the following features; Antilock Brake System (ABS), power windows and mirrors, electric sunroof, 16"; alloy wheels, dual SRS airbags, leather seats and Momo leather steering wheel, remote central locking, and of course any luxury vehicle wouldn't be complete without a security alarm. If you are looking for a stylish, smooth, and brawny luxury car then this is what you have been waiting for. On the road or parked, this is one attractive and impressive looking vehicle. The car is well designed with its curves that give it a very nice road presence. There are numerous attributes that stand out when looking at the exterior of the vehicle. These attributes I am speaking of are the smooth front light assemblies, rounded tail lights, panel fit, and the paint job. All of this together makes this vehicle look much more sporty, which is always welcomed by me. Honestly, there isn't a single bad thing I can say about the exterior of the new Honda Integra Luxury. This gave me high hopes for the rest of the car, and I was excited to see what was going on inside of it. 
The first thing I noticed when entering the Integra was of course the smooth and classy style of the interior. You won't find yourself overwhelmed by a massive cluster of dials, switches, or stereo controls. Everything blends together seamlessly and really does a good job of putting off a luxury feel. There is a built in dash single disc CD-player that is hooked up to a decent audio system and pushes out a respectable amount of sound with good quality. Also located in the dash are a few A/C and climate control dials, but not enough to make it appear crowded. The climate control really adds to the luxury experience of the vehicle. It has three different controls that are fan speed, fan location, and temperature. The front passenger and driver do get power window controls, however, they are located on the armrest and it is rather inconvenient to get to them. If they were easier to find I would have no complaints, but unfortunately you will find yourself fiddling around trying to find them more often than not. Other than that one minor issue that could use some improvement, there is nothing else about the interior that can be looked at as a flaw. As stated in the first paragraph you also get a leather steering wheel and sunroof. The steering wheel is very petite and offers a great amount of grip while looking stylish as well. The sunroof is nothing out of the norm for a luxury car and the one found in this vehicle is just your basic sunroof with no new features. There is one strange thing about the sunroof and that is how it opens. Most sunroofs will stop in the tilt position before fully opening. This isn't the case in the Integra Luxury, instead it opens in one motion and then you have to hit the button again to get it to tilt. Nothing real big, just a little odd. The front seats are leather and offer you more than just a decent amount of support. They also help hold you and your passengers securely in place when doing some hard cornering. As for the rear seats, there are unfortunately no headrests which could be somewhat of a safety concern but isn't really that big of a deal. The seats in the back are rather small however, and will be best for smaller people and children. Taller people will definitely want to sit in the front in this vehicle are your ride quality may be a bit different from others. You can fold down the back seats into a split fold to increase your storage space in the trunk. Without pulling the seats down you have 321 liters of trunk space, which is a very decent amount of storage in itself. Aside from the looks and features of the new Honda Integra Luxury, there is still one important issue to discuss. That of course is how the car performs and handles. I am happy to say that the handling in this vehicle is excellent. You will be able to cruise around town and make sharp turns with no problems. Response time was quick and on point making driving this vehicle very pleasurable. Along with great cornering comes great brakes and those are definitely present in this vehicle. With the ventilated 260mm discs at the rear, 262mm in the front, and of course the Antilock Brake System (ABS), you are pretty much guaranteed a safe stop in almost any situation. When you are driving the Integra you not only get the feel of luxury, but also get to enjoy a sporty car experience as well. So is the new Honda Integra Luxury worth it with a price tag of $42,450? After everything I have seen I would have to say yes. Sure, you could probably find other alternatives if you are looking for a vehicle to fit your sporty needs. However, if you are wanting a vehicle that seamless combine’s luxury with sport and performs great on the road then the Honda Integra Luxury is the car for you. There are no major flaws with this vehicle and a lot of positive things to say about it. I am sure that many will enjoy this car for its appearance, build quality, and performance. It's pretty hard to go wrong when a car has a list like that.
