He's asking 3k. have to drive 2 hours to get it. Real nice guy on the phone, I did a quick quiz with him about the swap.. it's from a 97' Prelude and he said he did the swap, and it was a pretty much direct swap over. It's got a lil' rust behind each wheel well, and a little around the sunroof and windshield.. but my father n' law is a body man so I got that covered. Interior is flawless from what he was describing. Has 18" ugly wheels as seen. but brand new tread, exhaust, and aftermarket suspension.

I like the 5th gens better. I'll hopefully be picking this one up this weekend:

yeah I like the 97+ exterior styling better, but i'm a bigger fan of the 92-96 Interiors. I'm an interior fag

If the engine is in good nick (compression etc) go nuts. Lots of potential right there :y

Yeah, i'm gonna go up w/ the jack tomorrow night, and drive it around a bit.. if it runs/drives good and throws me in the seat when VTAK kicks in i'll buy it.. I'm not gonna do a bunch of tests on it though.

The only thing I don't like about those is the vents beside the headlights.

I like interior to but I'm not gay about it! And I really dont like those interiors, there is way too much ---- going on in there. My friend has almost that same setup but its not that clean, he has a habit of hitting things. I'm just waiting till he crashes it bad enough, so I can get that H22. :6

Yeah, a good H22 is highly sought after. With a little boost, it'll bring the bitch to life

Too bad. Looked like a nice car. Call me a douchebag but I personally like those better than the 97+.

not even a B20, A20A3. Iron block, 8.8 1 factory compression, its just begging for boost!

Where are you located? I have a 95 prelude for sale right now, Its a special edition H23, automatic, leather 130k, completely stock, I want to get $3,500 for it. but that seems like a pretty decent deal depending on the year/miles, those preludes are sexy and ride realy nice.

I'd try to get him down a little because of the rust, I'm going to get a CRX this weekend and he's asking the same price. From the description it has a straight body, clean interior, and <100k original miles. I'll gladly pay that.

Re: Found a Prelude for sale. Deal or No deal???
 
people put prices on cars expecting to get jewed down....including me, lowball him and he'll let you know how far he'll come down.

I have always been fond of the year prelude you looked at. Hard to find a good deal anymore.
