No more snow for my S14

I just purchased a 1999 Honda Prelude Vtec, I'll take pics in a bit

Its manual, full power, 49k miles & great condition ...

Post by **bp2ooo** » Sat Jan 11, 2003 7:52 am

thats a nice winter car. You shoulda got an older car, spent more on s14 like me. O well. Congrats. Preludes are pretty nice, if only they were rwd. Would be badass.

Post by **JESTER** » Sat Jan 11, 2003 7:52 am

Man, you bought a honda. Are you gonna do anything to it? (excluding metal wing, and decals.)

Post by **s14sr20det** » Sat Jan 11, 2003 7:52 am

I aint doing anything to it, just driving it ....... The only car I work on is my baby 240!

It only cost me $6,500, I dont think its THAT much :rolleyes

Post by **bp2ooo** » Sat Jan 11, 2003 7:52 am

wow, good deal. i thought they were more expensive. Funny thing is i bet the prelude is quicker then your 240. The h22's run low 15's stock. My friend has one and he runs 15.1's-15.3's all day long

Post by **Quick240** » Sat Jan 11, 2003 7:52 am

$6500?!? For a '99 Prelude?!? That's a pretty damn good price!

Post by **blk90s13** » Sat Jan 11, 2003 7:52 am

i owned a 3rd gen prelude they are good cars never liked the 5th gen but its a great deal enjoy and watch out for VTEC lol

Post by **s0ldats** » Sat Jan 11, 2003 7:52 am

is it an auto --> manual conversion?

edit: nm i don't see the clutch

Post by **s14sr20det** » Sat Jan 11, 2003 7:52 am

its auto manual or whatever you call it, i dont really give a **** for this kinda price.and its for winter only anyways.Atleast Ill drive in style and not some broken down ford or dodge.

Post by **Former_240_s14** » Sat Jan 11, 2003 7:52 am

you do realize your winter car is nicer than a lot of people on these boards dont' you, lol!!!!

I love my winter driver. THE GREEN GOBLIN aka "the grocery getter, 91 ford tarus"

well an auto manual wouldn't be a manual since a manual car either uses a clutch or a computer controlled clutch ex: mr2 SMT

so i guess you couldn't call it a manual. maybe it should be called an automatic with sport shift.

Its still a pos HONDUH!!!!

I say you should be BANNED from the fourm.:evilhaha

nice find u lucky devil. very nice stable you are building

Post by **JESTER** » Sat Jan 11, 2003 7:52 am

They are good cars. I dislike Civics but the Ludes are alright.

And that broken down ford or dodge comment,I resemble that remark. Busted a@# Chevy. Thank God for my Toyota.

Post by **Tino** » Sat Jan 11, 2003 7:52 am

what!? thats a nice car... shoulda bought an old civic.

Post by **theTony** » Sat Jan 11, 2003 7:52 am

Well that is one of the nicest "winter cars" I have ever seen! Congrats on the purchase!

Post by **stickgoat** » Sat Jan 11, 2003 7:52 am

Kickass car.

I'd be tempted to make the S14 my winter car... I really like the '99 Preludes.

Post by **Rockenreno** » Sat Jan 11, 2003 7:52 am

wait, that car takes PREMIUM?! It's a Prelude, not an NSX! Preludes aren't so fast that they should need premium; though they may be faster than stock 240s they still are very weak compared to any car I have seen that needs premium!

Post by **s14sr20det** » Sat Jan 11, 2003 7:52 am

Im really happy that my baby can stay home from now on in the winter

Now the Lude gonna do the dirty job hahahaha!!Winter - LudeSpring, Summer & Fall - S14

lol yeah thats very true, unfortunaltely its true in my case

,congrats on the new car, thats a nice"winter" car

"Its still a pos HONDUH!!!!"

yeah what a pos, it can make as much hp as an sr20det without the turbo, pretty worthless huh?

Damn I love preludes, and that was a steal too, my brothers prelude is a 98 with 75k, we paid like 10.5k for it. Really nice car, fast too, he's got an aem intake, dc sports headears, and aem pulleys, I'd be tempted to build that car too if I had it. Congrats!

Hell yea, I got my winter car :)
