Prelude Question
Hi Guys, i am new here so please bare with me.
I just sold my Mustang and was looking for Preludes, 5th generation preffered.
I found one thats in my price range, its an 97 SH 5-speed with 147k miles.
New clutch, flywheel, timing belt done at 90 and clutch at 12k miles.
Do you think its a bad idea, as far as motor goes? What should i look for, how much more life can I expect out of it. Do you think the suspension needs attention at this point? I really want a 5th generation car, just dont have much money allocatd for this right now.
Thank you very much for any insight.

How much are you looking to spend? 147k miles isn't a lot for really any Honda, depending on who and how it was driven. I would probably sell my 97 Base Model with 87k and a few mods to you for the right price.
