No comp. Lower miles, the smell of leather and everything that will be done to the car you can say you did.

if i had it to do over again I would pay the extra 2k and try and talk him down.... Thats my .02... Leather, low mileage, vtec, 94-95.... Exactly what I would look for... The El gauge swap was ez, but if you already got em along with everything else cool besides the JDM CC,, then why fight it? Much better investment IMO.. Check the interiors too and you will see whihc one oyu like better.. those consoles cna be fucked up or can be badass... Just depends on what you get...

yo man mos def the low mileage, if u get into a wreck, your car wont be totalled, lol, i speak from experience, plus it sounds like a much nicer car, you know people with the bolt ons ragged on the engine, there's another sign, i'd rather buy a car from an old lady with a vtec than a 20 year old guy with a vtec anyday, find me a vtec lude under 7g's with under 100k would ya?

Yeah, im definately feeling the lower mileage one. I had a 94 SI, and i loved the interior in it. Just wanted to see if the 2K difference was worth the extra 50K miles. thanks for all the opinions

the point that sticks out to me is the 94 (aside from being a better car) is that it is STOCK. go for that one so you can do the build yourself, much more rewarding. do you want to say you bought it like that or did the work yourself. also the stock car probably means it was driven alot easier than one that has been modified.

Yeah when i had my 93 SI i really regreted not gettin a 94 or above and off course a VTEC. IMO 93 was the worse year of the Prelude becaues there was no cupholder or EL gauges, the 92 at least had that console that extends to the back so there is some storage space. Good thing about 94 is that it has OBD1, which i think was the last year with it. Also there is a pretty good chance that the car that has mod`s has been ragged on. The choice is pretty easy, at least for me, i would definatley choose the 94.
