If you want a car like that dont get a prelude. Autostick sucks....

A prelude is a drivers car not a pull up to a light and drop the clutch car.
street drag racing is a dangerous anways..

you should get another civic....that way when you get the first one taken from you for street racing, you can have another one to rid3 4r0und wit y0 homiez 1n...

if you always here about sport shift you might want to take a search and look for yourself....or are you too drunk or what not for that....

If you get a prelude, don't get the autostick. They have all sorts of problems and you'll prolly have to replace it eventually.

Also, don't bother getting a prelude if you plan on beating it up and racing and ****... they're not made for that.

Oh yeah, and real men drive manual, not automatics.

The prelude is a touring car, great for the twisties.

And no, don't get the auto.

maybe you should stick with the civic since you like street racing.

if you've got one that lives past 100,000 miles. consider yourself lucky.

the most miles i've heard of on a 5th gen auto tranny w/o needing a serious rebuild is approx 125,000? not sure.

basically, they suck alot, and what we suggest to auto guys who want to fix the situation is "swap in a manual. or sell it and buy a manual."

i've heard bad things bout the auto-stick (sportshift, t-tronic, however) but you should get one of those anyway cause if your not mean to it and race it alot im sure it'll be fine, then on top of that there will be more "stick's" available for me to buy when I'm good n ready!

seeing as how you didn't answer his question, why didn't you "not say a damn thing"? are you just a little hypocrite?
