first off is it worth 2500 stock no mods or anything it has 175k mile on engine and same on body...... then i have a 2004 Honda Civic Lx with 197k miles is it worth selling to get the Lude. im wanting a faster car with a tuner fit. but im not sure any opinions???

 

if its not been driven to the ground i think its worth it. i just bought one last week and i love it. have a shop look it over first and go from there. there are plenty of mods you can do to it. motor swaps, turbo, etc... get a shops professional opinion first. they will be able to tell you more about it than you can just "see". thats just my opinion. best of luck.

 

id rebuild and turbo the SI motor. preludes are one of the faster honda models.

 

If the body is in tip top shape then yes its worth it. If not then about 500 less. Also the older honda motors seems to be easier to work on than the 2000 and up hondas..not a fan of them. Keeping it OLD SKOOL!!! Get it!!

 

I paid 4500 for my lude. It was in priceless condition. Not even 100k miles on it when i got it. Super clean from head to tow.

To bad there is not one original part on the chasis anymore. Lol, I would of gotten a 500 dollar lude and rebuilt the whole thing If I knew I was going to be doing that when I got it.

 

thats normally the case. We spend the money getting it, then SPEND the money building it!!!

 

Definatly not true Preludes have alot more potential then a si motor even if its turbo... go with the PRELUDE FTW

 

that didnt even make sense..

 

x2

 

lol i think he thought the guy had a B16 in his Civic the "Si" motor. that's only sense i could make out what he was saying.

 

lol..true..exiactly what i was thinking as well.

 

i paid 2300 for my 92 Lude si 4ws with 171k on the clock, in mint condition inside and out 3 years ago. Best car i have ever owned.

 

ah. i see. i thought he meant that the prelude si motor should be ditched in favor of something better. and i was very confused by that. haha

 

yeah lol, i knew what you were saying...apparently THAT guy didn't. But for the original poster i'd grab it dude, and join the Lude community!

 

paid $1000 for my 89 si
