We were out of there by 12 noon. The deal went through on wednesday and we just picked it up yesterday morning. We gotta go back there to pick up the plates when they come in.

I didn't wanna keep botherin you everytime we went there to see if you were working but I'll let you know when I go in for the plates.

I originally wanted a prelude also. I was looking around for a prelude & wasn't even thinkin bout a CL till I saw a for sale sign on it n it was parked on the street where a lot of the dealerships were.

my opinion. Take a look at the car n test drive one before you decide to give up your cl. You might not like the interior, I know I didn't like it.. or find a CL thats a stick... in this case.. mines for sale

But I'm not out to buy a prelude. I want an r6.

I stopped to look at a quelude at a yota dealership, and saw my black on black v6 baby and then said prelude, what's that? It was beat on, curbed up, cloth interior, and had drinks spilled all over the interior, so i got the love of my life instead

CL > quelude

That's why people swap prelude motors into CL's duh

miss my old lude

you guys were talking about the 4ws on the earlier ones, and let me tell you, it's cool to have, i didnt notice a big difference, it was more subtle. But that thing handled wonderfully, until some woman slammed into it. I was so pissed, I only paid 1,000 bucks for it (1990 Si with the 4ws, bone stock), and that was in 2000 with only 60k on it, mint condition. I dont think i'll ever have another like it.

i think the ATTS in the 5th gen preludes is different than the 4WS. unless the names are different and it does the same thing.

You could think of ATTS as an electronic LSD. While 4WS is just that, 4-wheel-steering.

And you sitting in the back of a lude for that long is just crazy! I'll give ya that the seats in the back aren't good for anything other than babies or groceries. But if you get a leather interior in a lude it's just beautiful.

low speeds the back wheels turn slightly opposite the front wheels, hight speeds it turns in the same direction. We're talking SMALL wheel movement

exactly, it was very subtle. Esp at high speeds, it was barely noticable.

There was alot of change in the van lol and you could've taken the empty water bottle to shoprite or something to get 5cents back haha

There really was ALOT of technology that honda put into the ludes.


Congratulations on the purchase!

WWRS Lip kit, lowered, rims, tints and it'll look amazing. Then you could do a headlight projector retrofit and LED tailights etc. I can promise you that your car will not stay stock once you see what you can do.

If you want some inspiration from pics, I have hundreds of lude pics on my computer. Yeah, I know, it's sad. Just let me know.
