I have always loved the Prelude since they introduced it in '89. I bought my first Prelude in June 2001. Its a black base '01 Prelude. I actually got it at a discount price as the dealer was getting rid of spakin' new Preludes to buy more Civic Si's!!
The car has everything you can ask for, except for luxury and comfort features. The best part about the Prelude is the VTEC engine!! Its one of the best experiences you'll ever have. I have actually performed some mods on my baby so its a little faster but you will definitely be satisfied with the base engine! The car has great looks and is a definite attention grabber when it is all waxed and shined up!
Two things I didn't like about the Prelude. One, the interior! Its just too plain like some '84 Camry! Two, the seats aren't as comfortable and snug as the older models! Plus, no leather option.
Overall, I would recommend this baby to anyone. I have seen teenagers to old folks driving this car and it suits them all! Buy one already! (Used one of course)
