Integra, civic or prelude?

how much you willing to spend on the next car? clean em1 and dc2 are harder to find than a clean prelude imo. As for room my friends say theres more in my dc2 than my bb6

not all, mikeyG can get fkd

test drive all 3 cars and see them in real life and base your decision of what you like/see

also determine which is the best condition

That's a good idea. I have to say that the ludes are a bit out of budget. Most of the clean ones are about 8k++. Found a a fair clean dc2 for 6900 and it doesn't look bad at all!! Also found a em1 but it doesn't have a sunroof :( do they all come without sunroof? I've seen a couple on the road with sunroof n some without. Did they just fit it as an aftermarket upgrade or something?

i dunno man it just seems like you spend a lot of time here but dont like honda much. not saying you have to like honda but it's just odd to me.

Wow, previous comments and previous threads? I didn't realise my posts were so memorable.

Anyway, they're not exactly relevant to this discussion. I haven't brought up anything about FWD performance potential in this thread, so I don't see why you're calling me out on it. All I'm talking about here is the Prelude, and how I don't see where it fits into the Honda line-up.

This isn't a FWD/RWD debate, it's a discussion about the virtues and drawbacks of each car. For someone who supposedly loves Honda so much more than I do, you're not really presenting any arguments in the Prelude's favour. In this thread, I said that if the Prelude was Honda's alternative to the Silvia, rather than a less-practical Integra, I'd have one. As it stands, I don't see any benefit to having a Prelude over an Integra.

It's a discussion about cars. I like discussing cars. That's why I come here. If I ever buy a Silvia, I'll be sure to take your suggestion and **** off to nissansilvia.com, but while I still drive a Honda, I think I'll stay put.

haha settle down mr. keyboard champion i didn't mean any aggression, just what I noticed.

I think the biggest question this thread raises;

Is WHY is there no Accord option?
Accords are the superior.

1. out of the three cars mentioned above, which one is the fastest? its a pretty stupid question cause i think the prelude is but a lot of people said that the b18 on the teg would beat it.

2. teg, prelude or civic coupe? which one is the best if anyone here has any experience owning them.

3. does the coupe come with b18 engine or just d16y8? and is the d16y8 powerful at all? can u hear the crossover?

thats all. thanks guys.

1. Integra - I'd opt for the VTi-R model but if you can afford the Type-R (around $13k these days?) then go for it. The VTi-R has good grunt but the Type-R encompasses power and class.

2. Civic - Obviously you like the styling of the EJ8/EM1 models. Again I'd go for the VTi-R ($8k ballpark?) and they come standard with B16A's. From experience as fast as the DC2 VTi-R.

3. Prelude - BB6 model? I know a few people who have this car and do not like it. It feels heavy and even though it has the competent H22A it still doesn't seem to deliver the sporty essence of the above two models.

In the end it's your choice and no one can tell you what to choose.

Take the 3 for a test drive and see which one you like best.

It may even come down to small details that make you smile, like the red stitching and recaros in a DC2R or the agressive stance of a lowered EM1.

The Sunroof was the optional extra from factory on em1's. Em1 is sexiest honda i have laid my eyes on reason for me buying one never looked back (even thou i paid above market price for it)
You can also get a aftermarket one for approx 600 bucks as i been quoted, but research aftermarket sunroofs leak idunno after reading that, sunroof idea was out the door for me.
If your after speed and corners go the dc2 I personally think the dc2 is out of factory track chassis.

Its all up to you. I think the ludes arent pretty honda has fkd the look somehow in all models. BB6 came close to perfection but damn them head lights, i was about to buy one but something feels uneasy about the bb6


(All eyes on me wen i go for my sunday crusies em1 ftw) And keep it oem! sexyness

PS: I believe the b16 has the loudest crossover, b16b that is.

i also found a dc2 vtir with a jdm front end conversion and holy shit they look amazing!! still deciding between the em1's and dc2's :) so the d16y8 engines in the ej8's are basically no good? i know its a sohc vtec. can u even hear the crossover on them engines :) thanks guys
