Default New to me '01 Prelude SE

Picked this up from the local Honda dealership a couple weeks ago with 131,000km and already put nearly 5k on it. I've been having a blast cruising around in it. It is absolutely mint; it was garage kept, has never seen winter and never modified. After I pay it off, I have some ideas as to what I would like to do with the motor and suspension but for the most part I'm leaving it just the way it is. Finally got around to taking some pictures of it and wanted to ***** it out a bit, enjoy.

I have always liked the look of these preludes. I'm not a huge fan of the tinted taillights though.

Very nice! You're lucky to have found one with so many OEM optional parts already installed.

Thanks all! Just got back from a 6 hour road trip from up north, I love this thing it handles like a dream. Feels like I'm on a magic carpet ride This one has all leather interior and it also came with a spare set of floor mats that were still in the original packaging. Score!

I like the taillights the way they are, its different but its subtle. And no dropping, I live in Ontario. There are two seasons here, winter and construction. Got my eye on a nice set of rims but that won't happen till after I pay this bad boy off. Only thing I'm doing to it till then is your basic maintenance.
