Integra Type R's were what I had my eye on before I bought my Prelude. They're sweet cars. I think the engine is all aluminum, atleast my Prelude was. They're 1.8l of 195hp. If I were going to buy an Integra, it would be the Type R. I wouldn't settle for any other model.
What year are you looking at?
I actually based my color theme from the Type R. White with subtle red accents.
If you get it I want to see some pics!

My opinion of them: Great handling 4-banger.  I think all the ricers have ruined me from ever owning any Honda/Acura besides an NSX or S2000 (motorcycles not included). At least the fast GPs have a bit more exclusiveness to them, a niche market if you will.

No. Hayabusas are for show. They go real fast in a straight line. From the factory they will get up to 190, not 300. My bike runs a 1/4 in 9.6 seconds (if you keep the front wheel on the ground). That's already too fast for me. One thing you will notice about Hayabusa riders is that they are chumps and haven't been riding for too long.
