Really!!!!!
Yeah, what of the first gen is apparent in the 2nd, 3rd and 5th?

If anything the 4th gen has more similarities with the 1st gen than the rest... The bonnet bulge, the rear lights...

I was just trying to find some similarities. With the 2nd, 3rd and 5th you can see the evolution of the rear clusters. They're nothing like the 1st gen's, but I can see how the 1st's could evolve to become the 4th's.

An no... The 1st gen profile is not like the rest :lol:

The 2nd Gen is the 1st of the traditional Prelude shape. The 4th Gen is just a curvier version of the shape. All retain similar styling cues but the 4th gen was a unique one. However i like the 4th Gen because of that.

No. I don't see how you can think the 1st looks like the rest.

Looking at your pics... The 1st gen, the boot slopes down as apposed to being flat like the others, the rear quarter slopes up, the front end is square, not wedged and the whole car is stockier, making the side profile just as similar as the next brand of coupe. Then look at the front end and rear... They look nothing like the others.
