cool sounds good.

by the way can you put up some pics of the prelude as well? I learned how to drive on a '92 5spd Prelude. Bought it for $800 and all it needed was a new clutch. Drove like a true warrior ill never 4get that car

Are you a girl (the one in the picture)? Just wondering, because most of the people on this site are male, and it is a habit to call them dude, bro, etc. If you are female, knowing that would help to prevent that a little. If you aren't...sorry!

I hate to hate.....but that pin-striping stands out way too much.

Nice car though....I have the exact same color.

C'ville huh? Anderson honda off of Rt. 40?

They promised me one like a month before they rolled out last year and gave me the run around when it was suppose to arrive. What a douche, both of my parents bought from him!!!

Went all the way down to College Park to pick my baby up in Oct. '07. Wonder if i was one of the first in MD, or anywhere, to grab me and '08.

Anyways, take her across Rolling Rd, pass the Park and Ride, and make the two rights on to Gun. thats my old neighborhood above Patapsco State Park. Really windy roads. Just don't kill my neighbors' cats, or any Xcountry high school teams.

Luck for what? You finalized the deal right? You have the car right? What luck is there to wish?

Just don't go crazy with the car on that highway. Keep the RPMs moderated and fluctuate your speed on the highway.....there's a break-in period of about 600 miles.
