Hello all,
Im an avid driver but tend to have stuck mostly to European. I have a number of old Mercedes in storage and drive an E39 BMW 530i for the daily commute. Recently though I bought my mother a 2009 CRV to upgrade her older one as a surprise. Whilst she appreciated it she likes her old one so much she chose to keep it so I have been driving the 2009.
I have been very impressed with it especially the storage side of things such as second parcel shelf etc...
I am now considering a 2000 + Prelude as a run around so I thought i'd jump on here and get a feel for them.
Always liked the look of them and I think they have dated really well.

5Gs are super cheap for what they are now, just need to find one in good shape.

Thanks all.

Whilst your suggestions are appreciated I like the look of the Prelude.
Just need to go out and drive one now to see if they drive as nice as they look.

Looks like the 4ws system in the prelude finished in 2001.Cause that made em drive unreal.

Because that was the last year of production. The fully mechanical 4WS system that the article refers to was also only present in the third generation model.
