As soon as you buy one of those of course, you instantly become a front bum... :?

Good excuse to touch my new front bottom. Rub it in people's faces.

The HIDs do not last forever - either the bulbs, or the ballasts, will require replacing, they're still consumable items.

The centre section of the exhaust is still the original that Mr Honda put on it.

If you want a perfect show car, then you will NEED to spend mega bucks - I would much rather have something that doesn't look quite right, but is mechanically sound and fun to drive - and I've yet to find something as nice and fun to drive as that Prelude!

I think the build quality on the e36 is terrible

e46 is much better

I think I still couldn't drive a BMW :lol: I know they're amazing cars, really driver focussed etc etc, but I just can't get past the badge and lack of kit that they fit as standard.

German cars aren't my thing either.. some are fast but the styling doesn't light my pants on fire and they always seem to be over-engineered. Oh and everyone I know with a turbo'd Nissan has problems... :?

I drive different cars all the time and pound for pound/bang for buck, you just can't beat a VTEC Prelude. Sell it, you'll regret it, then you'll probably buy another one with more problems that the one you currently have!
