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

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.

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.

Kickass car.

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

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!

"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!
