Default Would a 92-95 Prelude be a better daily driver than an EG hatch or DC?

Cuz that's what I'm thinking of doing...Prelude seems torquier which feels more comfortable in city streets...

But is there anything I'm missing?

The Prelude is not a 4 passenger vehicle. It's pretty much a two seater.

i don't personally like a 4th gen over a eg hatch, but i will vouch that the prelude is an awesome car that you will not experience with the eg or dc

the prelude is the more unique. there isnt 5 billon a min driving past you every min. get the h22, the rest with the weight of a prelude just is unbearable to me. as stated it isnt a 4 person car, but if you had to you can. i had 5 in there before.

besides when you catch the bug, you will already have a h22.

Yea Preludes are the ****. I have a 2000 now and before I had an 89 it was fun as hell to drive even though its kind of old and stuff, but i like the 00 a lot better except for the fact that it isnt a stick(yea go ahead and give me hell about that).

Mattdaddy: loser! you drive auto!! haha .. (hey you asked for it)

Prelude is awesome, honestly I think that a 3gen with H22 would be better for a daily ride since there is more room in it and then you'd have the speed.

If you need a getaround car and dont have much cargo nor passengers.. Prelude all the way baby! It's a drivers car.

I guess I have the best of both worlds. I own both: '96 Prelude VTEC and '93 EG hatch w/JDM H22A.

EG is not EF...

Once you go hatch... you never go back. DC Tegs are nice too.

i dont know what better looking is about, but i get more stares and props from people over and over again with either my 5th or my friends 94. It just doesn't compare to the eg or ek family, no way.

Let me ask you something: for the vtec guys, do you have to spend some $$$$ to get an h22 as the civics and tegs do? .... nope, we already have it and for those with the non vtec engines, they are still good enough for what we want out of them.

I vote prelude and nice choice by the way to the originator of this post.

I love my prelude.

Midori Green owns frankly. ANd Preludes do not get that color.
