    I know it's a honda and please don't kick my butt for asking this lol. I have the 69 F-100 on craigslist for sale or trade. A guy emailed me and asked if I would be interested in trading on this prelude. I am interested but not sure. I gave him my number and told him to call tomorrow. I was wondering what kind of performace and handling these cars have. If I did trade it would be used as a daily driver. Here is the link to the prelude

    well from what i hear those things are ok balanced but they are a lil bit on the heavy side. the engine is most likely a b-series witch is pretty good for preformance.

    right now my daily is a 4dr civic so the 160hp prelude should be a lot faster. If its ricy I'm gonna pass.

    The car you are looking at is a fourth generation Prelude. I can't say much about that specific model, but I'm on my second third generation Prelude, and I can't sing the praises of these cars enough. Both have been gobs of fun to drive (handle like F1 cars!!) and amazingly free of problems. I have become a hardcore Honda fan as a result of my experience with these 2 cars. Pm me if you want specifics. Have fun...John B
