Acura will celebrate its performance heritage and the highly anticipated return of the iconic Integra nameplate to the #acura lineup with the public debut of the #acura Integra Prototype at the RADwood SoCal car #show, Saturday, Nov. 20 in #torrance, Calif.

Following its Nov. 11 global debut, the Integra Prototype will make its first public appearance at RADwood SoCal, alongside ten vintage Integra models including championship-winning racecars and the actual Integra GS-R from The Fast and The Furious. RADwood SoCal is presented by #acura and will be hosted at the brand's North American headquarters.

Acura has a long partnership with RADwood, #automotive lifestyle events centered around the cars, trucks, bikes and the culture of the 1980s and 1990s. In 2018, #acura displayed several heritage models, including a low-mileage 2001 Phoenix Yellow Integra Type R and never before seen quarter scale model of the third-generation Integra. #acura also was the first #automotive brand to create a project car specifically for RADwood, the "Super Handling SLX", built by #acura engineers in Ohio, for display in 2019.

More information on the RADwood #show, including event tickets, is available at Radwood.com.
