Do you ever feel as if you should have went with a Prelude?

Wow do you realize what you just said. The gsr has 1 lb-ft more. And saying an integra has a lot of torque period is just stupid.


My friends prelude is way less nimble than my gs-r. I can take turns fast and its very solid. My friends always tell me they like riding with me more because my car 'feels safer on turns'

No, i never considered getting a prelude, why i never did, i dont know, just not my kinda car i guess, I am MORE than happy with my ITR, especially with the little mods it has, it goes good enough for me, handles like a champ and all, ahhh....i love my car :-)

i definitely considered prelude...it was just a matter of which i found first, civic si, gsr, or type s lude...no sh. the problem with finding ludes is that most s are auto..ended up finding this little gsr and i have to say im pretty pleased, but ludes are sweet too

..And for some reason, V generation Prelude's are not only harder to find in a manual, but they seem to have high mileage. The only pre-owned V gen Preludes I've found under 50K miles are still going for upwards of 15K-17K. That's great re-sale value, but that's also the price of a pre-owned E36 M3.

I'd like to add that I'm also one of the very few that actually like the quad, round headlights (reminiscent of my beloved E30).

I like the look of independent housings... also why I like the mid-90's Celicas and older beemers

I test drove a Prelude SH and an Integra.


If I wanted something plush and luxury for cruising, I would have gotten a Lude. But the Integra is faster and an overall tighter package.

The GSR definitely felt better being pushed down a woodsy, twisty, back road.
