Here it is: The car you’ve been waiting for. When , — how could this four-door ever stand up to the legendary of the ‘90s? Everyone forgot, of course, that the Integra always came in multiple trim levels. Acura may have skipped the ‘90s base trims for the ‘20s revival, but it still served us dinner before desert. Now, we’re getting the sweets: Acura revealed today that will make 320 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque — and it will be exclusively available with a six-speed manual.

That’s right: The Integra Type S makes 5 more horses than the , with which it shares this 2.0-liter VTEC turbo four-cylinder. And remember that the Civic Type R famously puts — we suspect the same underrating will be at play with the top-dog Integra.

Of course, the Type S has had one big question circling it since the earliest rumors: What transmission would we get? Rumors swirled about a dual-clutch, but Acura decided instead to stick with the Integra’s roots. The new Type S will only be available with a six-speed manual gearbox.

Along with today’s new specs, Acura gave us glimpses of the Integra Type S’s flared front and rear fenders, with harsh lighting that shows just how far they bulge beyond the base car’s conservative bodywork. The wide stance gives the car a menacing appearance, and I’m sure it’ll look absolutely stunning in yellow — but we’ll have to wait until April to know for sure.

Should The Average Buyer Really Care About Performance?
As Jalopnik’s resident car buying expert and professional car shopper, I get emails. Lots of emails. I’ve decided to pick a few questions and try to help out.

At $195,000, Could This 2015 Panther WaterCar Be Fun If By Land And Two Times As Much If By Sea?
With the threat of global climate change supposedly looming, there’s a strong possibility that many of our favorite coastal roads will eventually be under water. With today’s Panther Amphibious Car that won’t be a problem. Let’s see if its price will be. Colin Chapman is famous for his efforts...

Why Buy A Bugatti Centodieci When You Can Have This F-16 Fighter Jet For Less?
Why Buy A Bugatti Centodieci When You Can Have This F-16 Fighter Jet For Less?
The $8,878,800 (plus tax!) list price of the really makes you think. The fact that there’s a market for such a preposterous toy is a pretty clear indicator that some people are too rich. Then again–why would you park among peasants in one of these when I could hook...

The Lada Niva Refuses To Die, 42 Years And Counting
If there was even a shred of hope for my objectivity, it was gone as soon as I climbed inside the 2019 Lada Niva, slammed its startlingly thin door shut, and felt the 84 horsepower engine rumble to life. Releasing the clutch, I heard the familiar ghost-like howl of the...

The 2019 Jaguar F-Type V6 May Be Old But It Still Rips
The 2019 pretty much looks like the 2013 Jaguar F-Type; it’s old news. Then again, so are Converse sneakers and Coca-Cola. The F-Type is not the freshest or most technologically impressive modern car but I’ll be damned it doesn’t hit the spot every single time. (: Jaguar loaned me...
