Default Old article on ITR - NY Times, September 21, 1997

http://www.nytimes.com/library/auto/...0921acura.html

It ends with "Bet you can't drive one without smiling." Well said.

You can see from the title that they tested the Canadian version*, the "Type RA".

That's funny, I didn't even realize they misprinted it. I should drop them an email and ask them what an "ACURA INTEGRA TYPE RA" is, and where can I buy one?

Well.......they are newspapar journalist, don't expect them to have all the equipments for through testing. With a 60-0 at 115ft..not many can under the 50,000 sticker.....very few of them, mostly roadster and the lighter Celica GT-S...but merely 2-3 feet

It wasn't a misprint... it was Canadian spelling. they were saying its the "Type R, eh?"

edit: ****, i just read an old post from nsxtcjr and he said the same damn thing. I feel dumb now anyway, I wasn't copying.
