18 of the Best Machines Most Speed Freaks Can Afford

11. Acura Integra Type R

If you are a fan of the Japanese car industry and want to own something equally important historically as well as a blast to drive, the Acura Type R is a car for you. As one of the most brilliant front-wheel-drive cars they ever produced, the Acura Integra Type-R is a definitive JDM legend. It is still especially popular among car fans for its swift performance and fantastic handling.

The front-wheel drivetrain was the main reason the Integra Type R is so universally loved and highly sought-after. The engineers at Honda managed to design and produce a front-wheel-drive set up that worked with the rear axle in perfect balance. This is why the Integra handled neutrally.

In fact, it had few understeering problems and great steering feedback. Despite just 187 HP coming from its high-revving 1.8-liter engine, the Integra Type R offered a great performance, even by today’s standards. This is a definite future classic and a car you should buy today.
