Hi all,

Just joined today. I browsed around and saw a lot of great discussions, glad to find this place. I'm really excited about the new Integra. I've been driving a 2012 MDX for 9 years. With a family of 3 and a dog, I don't think I need all the space and hope we can fit into the Integra. I had a 2010 Mazdaspeed 3 and loved the Hatchback+manual. But these days, Mazda doesn't offer a MT in turbo models, the Civic Si is sedan-only, and I think the upcoming Type R is a bit extreme. Integra seems like a great option, especially if it has even more cargo space than the Civic HB. Can't wait to see one in person.

Anyone else bringing a tape measure to see the demo car? I'm sure the dealer would prefer that over suitcases and dog stuff.

'Dunno, @Leehro. I think you should bring the dog! Welcome, by the way.

Welcome to the forum @Leehro! How has the MDX treated you since you got it back in 2012? It really is a shame Mazda doesn't offer a manual in their turbo models, especially with how good their designs are these days.

Have you placed a reservation for an Integra?

Thanks! The MDX has been great. I bought it CPO from my local Acura dealer with just a couple thousand miles in May 2013. Recently passed 130k. It was a bargain at the time, below KBB and a better-than-new warranty. I think it was a loaner or dealer demo, but it's been good to me. Nothing big mechanical, just maintenance and cosmetic stuff.

I did reserve an Integra in late April. I picked A-Spec Tech 6MT in Blue/Orchid but knew I wasn't in early so told my dealer (same guy who sold me the MDX in 2013) I'd rather have Performance Red/Ebony 6MT. So that's what I'm waiting for now. Hope to hear something soon!
