Do type R have more backseat room than 97-01 preludes? I need to know because I find my lud to be way to small in the back...Can't put nobody behind...Maybe a type R would be better...

 

Its been a long time since I sat in the back of a prelude but I think the Integra does have more room.

 

I might NEED an R...

 

the type R i believe has the same amount of rear seat space as a gsr, gs, ls or rs. but ive never been in the back of a prelude so i couldnt tell you.

 

I *think* an Integra will have better rear seat room, but sure isnt much back there. 6' tall people can fit in the back of my car for short trips.

 

I've been in both. Without a shadow of a doubt, the Integra has more rear room than a Prelude.

Edmunds reports the following on the ITR:

Rear Head Room: 35 in
Rear Shoulder Room: 48.8 in
Rear Hip Room: 44.1 in
Rear Leg Room: 28.1 in

and the following for the Prelude:

Rear Head Room: 35.3 in
Rear Shoulder Room: 50 in
Rear Hip Room: 41 in
Rear Leg Room: 28.1 in

While it is a tad more spacious for your upper body (Prelude's width is 69 in vs the Integra's 66.7 in, there is a considerable amount more space for the lower trunk area of the body.

Again, these figures are quoted from Edmunds.com

 

I own both..

I can fit about 2x as much race stuff ie tires/tools etc in the ITR than the Lude.

Headroom? I would say the ITR has substantially more. Although I haven't sat in the back of either car for quite some time because I have no backseats in either of them. The Integra can be consider a "hatchback" while the Lude is a "sport coupe"

 

the integra has way more backseat room i used to own a prelude and they are very tight in the back
