Can you place them in a list starting with the most desirable, and which ones you wish you had kept.
Or too difficult?
Not quite.
A 5th Gen Prelude was our first Honda four wheeler and is fondly remembered for its ability to set off car alarms - Jaguars and Citroens a speciality.
The second 5th Gen is the most fondly remembered. It took us to 17 countries and was the best touring car we've ever owned.
Our second Honda was the wingless Accord Type R. That, too, went abroad a few times, but somehow didn't flow quite as well as a Prelude. The second ATR was a machine. That's the one now in Germany with Jan waiting for some extra disposable income.
The Integra's tally is eight countries so far. I love its rarity and quirkiness but it is only an AWD Civic in different clothes, after all. I believe the Civic Coupe would have served us just as well if it hadn't been pranged.
The jury's still out on the Euro R. There's no denying that it's a very capable car, but it doesn't grab me like the Preludes did.
I didn't drive the BB1 that much (it was Jan's). I remember it as harder than a 5th Gen and possibly a touch quicker on the B roads. The Accord coupe is also Jan's and I haven't been in it enough to judge.
As for the 4-dr Civic, all you need to know was that I bought it for its engine!
