I'm near Pittsburgh and unless you get one from a dealer-don't come out here looking for super clean. The state in its wisdom uses a combination of salt and cinders on the roads in the winter.
You can check with Honda VIllage in Greensburg, PA at 1-800-654-3325 and see what they have in stock or can point you to a source. Another idea is autotrader.com-that is how I found my CRX in March. It was in Charlotte at Hendrick Honda and as advertised-no rust (hail damage, but I repainted so thats all gone).

Good luck

Hey, i'm out on Long Island and i have a 95 prelude which is pretty darn clean. But the thing is i wasn't planning on selling it just yet because i have some aftermarket parts on it that i wanted to take off and sell unless you're willing to take some of them. The car has 68k miles on it and Mobil 1 has been used since i got it almost 3 years ago with 47k miles on it. Here are pictures taken in the summer time in august:

It has 77k, almost 78K miles, right now, and maintenance every 3k miles, brand new paint (since July). I live in Bowling Green, KY, which is south-central KY, approx. 30 minute drive from the Tennessee boarder.

Try looking on Autotrader.com. That is how I found my Prelude. I had to drive to another place to get it, but it was within 30 mins, so it wasn't that bad.

thanks.

Anyway, it's a manual. As far as the mods go, there might be a couple of things that will stay. One is the wheels, the silver BBS ones in the first pic. I sold my stock wheels a while ago like an idiot. Then i think the intake because i'm not sure what i did with the stock one. There's an aftermarket clutch and flywheel that i'm not going to take out as well. The clutch has plenty of life left in it. Also, i shaved the emblems and original antenna off the car so that's different as well. I did the timing belt service last august and have the recieptl.
How soon were you looking to buy? There's a few things i would need to do to "prep" it to sell. As far as price, i have to get back to you on that. I have to do some research.

I don't entirely "want" to sell it, trust me. I still love the thing to death.
One reason why i would want to sell it is because there are many cars coming up on the horizon that i might not be able to contain myself from buying. So if i sell now i get the most money for my car. Also, my brother just recently purchased a 1999 M3 front clip that he's going to be transfering into his 318ti. One of the best engines ever mass produced put into a car that weighs 300lbs less than the regular M3. Makes me think about what i have and cry. But again, i still love my car I just think i need to move on to bigger and badder things. You understand kind of right?

I've got a Milano Red 1995 VTEC for sale. The link to my ad is in my sig, but pay no attention to the price. Give me an offer that I can work with. Oh and by the way.... the 4th gens are faster than the 5th gens.. hehe
