Which is the best generation Prelude?

I can appreciate a well done 4G but I prefer the styling of the 5G, it's more refined and has finesse like a well maintained vag whereas the 4G is a bit more raw like doggying your average nightclub ho against a Biffa. Both appealing in the right ways.

Funny thing is 4th gen lights are the same size. Just different shape.
I personally think the 3rd gen 4ws is the absolute best prelude.
But my heart loves the Type S.
But is personally own all ludes if I could before any other car.

all that weight saving you have done has cost you loads of man hours when you could have just left it out in the rain

Lol, the wind would have blown it away long before the rain had any effect

Be warned all you smug 5th gen owners, I am seeing quite a few rotten arched 5ths now, in fact the tables are turning quite rapidly now as more and more 4ths are getting the love and arch repairs they need

its ok Nitin, we can be friends.

Nope.
5th Gen all the way for me. I'm on my third and just think they look so much better than the others. People have a go at the headlights but give me 5th headlights over the 4th's rear lights any day of the week!

I dont dislike any of the 'ludes to be honest - just prefer the one that even made Honda decide that had perfected it so would have to move on to something different!!

^^^^ this, love my 5th, but like them all to be fair!
3g looks awesome, and clearly there must be something special about the 4g otherwise the rest of you wouldn't be here! must be the drive!

In the right direction.
5th gen is like pulling in a fancy nightclub, it looks tidy, has had a lot of work done. But when you get down to the nitty gritty, you notice the flaws, and the fact that she weighs more than you and smells a little bit of stale urine.

4th gen is like your favorite hooker. You know the one. The one that always remembers your name, and does actually get wet. Not perfect, not by a long chalk, but its honest and does what it says it will. It has a curvy ass, but thats ok, some guys like it, some don't.

3rd gen. Always makes me think of Velma from Scooby doo.
I don't know why.

1st & 2nd. I've never seen one in the flesh, and I doubt I'll ever drive one.

My pick is 4th gen. Honda in the early 90's was the best it will ever be. It's all downhill from there.
