Agreed, visibility is pretty bad.

 

Welcome to the real world.

I was comparing the 2000 Celica GTS with the Prelude when I was car shopping last. The visibility to the rear is abysmal! One of the good points of the Prelude is that visibility is really pretty good all around for a sporty car. This can really help when manuvering the car in tight places or planting it properly on the road. This good visibility has always been a high point of Hondas. To bad they have to give this up to get "sexy" styling. What do you guys think of the styling anyway? I've still not really warmed up to the 7th gen styling. I guess this is one reason I'll probably wait until next year to trade the Prelude.

 

I have completely warmed up to the '03 Cpe styling. It reminds me of a more aerodynamic version of my current car (a CL-S). One thing I will miss that the Accord does not offer is the passenger side auto mirror which points down when going in reverse (for parking).

I'd say that you throw a spoiler on that bad boy and maybe even the aero pkg, and the cpe is one sharp lookin' car. As for myself, I'm in my mid-30's so I'm not into the after-market mod stuff. Spoiler, 17" wheels, and aero pkg will be just enough to make me happy (not too mention one helluva nice looking ride)!

Cheers!
