Default Integra 3rd Gen. Concept Sketches

im wondering if there is anything on the internet or anywhere for that matter about how the design of the 3rd gen integra came about.. im mostly wondering about any pre-production concept sketches. i was reading another thread about the rear stock spoiler being somewhat functional and someone posted some info about how some decent r&d was put into the integra's curves as far as wind tunnel test results.

i was in 7th grade when the newly designed 3rd gen teg first caught my eye and ever since i turned 16 i've always wanted one. i think it might be interesting to see early ideas of the 3rd gen especially since final production models practically never look the same as the concept sketches..

i did some searching on google and team-integra.net, but didnt really find anything at all so this might be a shot in the dark as well..

anyone ever come across anything??

Wow that's neat. You can actually see certain elements that made it into the production version (center stack stands out most to me). Where are these pictures from?

thats really interesting.... it almost looks cool... if you were to change the rims and make the headlights rectangular instead of circles im sure it would look pretty bad ***.

Wow that's pretty sweet, I remember when I was about 10 or 11 or something I saw sketches of the 4th gen Integra (which we got renamed as RSX) and it was pretty freaken close. I'm gonna try looking around and see if I can find it.

according to the image's properties, these are coming from http://www.honda.co.jp/

too bad i can't read japanese! but if you go here: http://www.honda.co.jp/factbook/ you can kinda make your way around from there. i was only interested in the teg, but it appears to be a complete list of every honda ever made. someone correct me if im wrong.

looks kinda similar to me! looks like they left some of the steering wheel out to show the dashboard behind it..
