Default Finally Got a Prelude

hello guys and gals,

Well after waiting which seems like forever i finally was able to find and buy a 5th gen. prelude that i like. Well lets get straight to the car, well i just picked up about a couple of weeks ago a red 97 Honda prelude manual base model.

<U>Prelude Parts:</U>
Only 68K Miles
True OEM Lip Kit
SH Rims (painted metallic black)
SH Spoiler
New Struts
New Tires
All New Breaks(except calipers)
AfterMarket Intake
Red L.E.D in Headlights


Well im looking forward to going to some prelude meets and meeting other prelude enthusiast, and the cool thing is, is that im only 16 and this is my first car and trust me and i promise you their will be no "ricing" happening to my car, im going for the straight JDM look.

yeah, forget the look and get some nice motor toys. IMO: the interior is for the driver and the exterior is for everyone else. i can honestly say that i would drive a pinto if the interior looked like that of the higher end cars like the lambo's.

Lookin good.

If you ever decide you dont need that center console.....i could use one.

I have the one that goes all the way into the back to the trunk, and am in need of a different one.(or if you know anyone else).

I dont know about JDM being the new rice though....

plus too many people overlook it and try to label every car that looks nice as rice.

Just as long as you don't get a huge wing, and a gigantic muffler. you should be ok.

Too true. As soon as something because more popular than desired by people that stray away from the norm, it becomes rice. Just like music, you can't escape it. JDM looks good, keep it clean and it'll look great. Besides, who cares what everybody else thinks. It's your car, do what makes you happy.

Looks good BTW.
