Default Need advise on which car to keep!!!!

I purchased a 01 prelude (silver) new back in 01. I had leather seats put in I/H/E and its under warranty still (extd) has I/H/E, body kit looks good has 41k miles and I just bought a 00 prelude (nordic mist/silver....the blue silver color). which is boosted with a greddy turbo full custom exhaust has a LSD installed, hondata boost gasket, gauges has 72k miles on it and a couple repairable minor dents..which one would you guys keep??? should i switch the turbo and tranny over to the 01 or just keep the 00. I like the looks better of the 01 since i have a kit on it and would need another one for this 00 or repaint it. Its alot of work to switch the parts or expensive to have someone else do it. Need advise on what to do here??????

Do you have another car for a DD or is this your only car? If this is your only car I would stick with the 01, otherwise get the 00

i wouldent recomend keepin the turbo is its your daily driver, cause its alot of maintence and it wears the motor down faster then it owuld if the motor was n/a, if yuo have the cash to take care of it by all means keep the turbo

Switch the parts over to your 01 you'll be happier in the long run, if you decide to sell it you can pull the turbo kit off and the resale value will be more than the 00.

keep the boosted one.. especially since its got a lsd already installed. itll be too much work than its worth to swap that stuff over to the other one.
