maser asked about my car situation...no moves yet. I have a 2016 so I figure 2026 is the year I think about a switcheroo.
While the Giulia is still the everyday car I'd prefer over all others...from what I've read they never ironed out dozens of electrical gremlins. Especially bad for cars that sit and don't move for weeks at a time. You almost have to have a trickle charger in that situation...or the battery dies regularly. And my cars do sit for long periods of time.
So right now I'm looking at the Acura Integra Type S. It just came out new as a 2024 model...I figure in 2026 it will be down to a price I'm willing to pay for a hot rod Civic. Seems like just the right car...four doors, trunk, just less than scary fast, great handling, fun to drive, reliable...and built in Ohio. If you don't know it...it's a Civic with 300+ horsepower and all kinds of handling and luxury upgrades. it's the same car as the famous Civic Type R but softened and luxed up a bit.
