Default I cant decide which car to get...

1994-1997 2dr Honda Accord or a 1994-2001 2dr Acura Integra. I know 4dr Accords are really common, but there arent much that are fixed up. Its pretty hard to find 2dr Accords nowadays. The ones I have found are either overpriced for low mileage or at high mileage. Integras are pretty common, but pretty fast... it'll look nice w/ the JDM front end and there are some still with low miles (60K). I dont really care about insurance price. What do you guys recommend? Which car gets the best mpg on both city and freeway?

the integra gives you more mpg. The integra would also be more of a fun car, while the accord would be more of a commute car. There is also more aftermarket support mods for the integra than the accord.

Then you need a tune up, I get 32 mpg mixed hwy and city driving. That's without a/c tho, around 28 with a/c. And yes, thats with over 300K miles on the ticker.

I have driven both cars and if you're talking about an Integra LS, then the comparison may be close, but if you're talking GS-R or Type R, the comparison is not even close in my mind. The Honda Accord weighs more and has less horsepower.

You're not really comparing two cars of the same type.

It more so depends on what Kind of car do you want.

<FONT SIZE="1">Now before anyone gets butthurt, when I say luxury, or sports/sporty,
I'm using the general TERM, so if anyone trys to say "Lol, integra sports car?? wtf?",
You have no need to reply, because I'm not trying to talk either up to godly levels,
Just putting them in a General Class.
</FONT>


Anyways, The Accord is more of the "luxury" car for Honda,
It's not exactly meant to be some fast car, but more of a comfortable driver,
Something you'd want more with having a family, or just for relaxed trips.


Then you have the Integra, It's the higher up brand of Honda,
And it's also the "Sportier" car that Honda has, It's not about being luxuries, or having a smooth ride so much,
but it's suppose to be the smaller, more fun to drive car.
It's like one of the "hot" cars Honda makes, of course it's not a Ferrari,
But it's the car that Honda makes that has some pep to it.


So pretty much, do you want a more bigger, comfortable car,
or do you want a smaller sportier car, it's more of personal preference.

accord LX is 25/32 5mt EX is 23/29(vtec motor)
Integra LS is 25/31
their pretty much the same and both require only octane 87
