Honda needs a replacement for it's Prelude
 
The lots looking boring without the ludes not around anymore at the Honda dealers.

Ya i would like to see somthing new that fits the preludes characteristics

I think the Prelude will be back but I've been told it may not be til 2007ish (most likely due to the amount of time it takes to develop a totally new car) and it's easiest with the RX, Z car, and Supra coming back to just slap the Prelude back on there.

They are trying to fill the void with accord coupes.

for sure though, Honda has become a more boring company since the Prelude left us. And I say that with the deepest appreciation for Honda, and I will never buy anything other than a Honda (except a Ferrari if I can afford one, or maybe a 350Z... but let's get back to reality here). Anyway, I'm tired of seeing all these $hitty 2001+ civics bouncing around with their crap struts and stupid flat rear floorboards. Mostly I'm tired of seeing a company cater more and more to shareholders than to the driver, the passenger, or the family. While I'm sure the Civic Type R will be a welcome sight when it arrives in north america, Honda still lacks it's sporty, beefy looking coupe. While the latest coupe offers a helluva lot more power than the 5th gen did, I would love to see a Prelude come out in a few years which answers ALL the wishes and desires of Honda fans, and even the doubtfuls. Possibly a V6, but definitely a lot of power, double wishbones, back AND front
(it had to be said), and maybe even RWD. Hell, I think 4WS should be reintroduced, but that's just me. I'll get off the soapbox now, but yeah, let's bring the Prelude back.

like tom said, the accord v6 coupe 6spd. I highly doubt that the prelude will be back, even in a few years.

no, what he said was that they are "TRYING" to replace it with the accord coupe. I think in time Honda will notice the void of a car bearing the 'H' emblem, a car that is lighter than the accord coupe, even sportier looking, a more performance-oriented vehicle which would be able to compete with perhaps the RX-8, the WRX (forget the STi, that would be a pipe dream) and even perhaps, as stock, right from the dealer, the mustang (bear in mind that I think all mustangs are crap, and by no means am I suggesting even my 94 Si is worse than a stang, I meant in terms of horsepower). Seriously though, might as well hope for one, what are you losing? Besides, I think it's time that a Honda, other than the S2000, come with an LSD.

I seriously doubt that without the Prelude and with it's current lineup that I would buy another Honda. I love Hondas but more to the point the Prelude...everything else outside of the S2000 is boring. And I dont like the styling of the S2000

Well, I think if they actually go through with an S2200 coupe...

Granted, it wouldn't have a backseat, but I'd take it over a Lude anyday of the week.
