Some words from Michelle:
I bought the car 2 years ago after I sold my civic. I thought my civic was cool ****, then i realized it was slow and sucked, so I wanted something with more power, and i wanted to learn to drive a manual. So I looked at all the cars avaliable and the Prelude was the best looking car I wanted (in the price range i could afford, i'd have taken a `Vette or Porsche instead :wink: )
It was my 1st manual car, so I learned to drive stick on it. I love the fact that it's 10 years old and still looks better than most of the cars made today - style wise that is. And although not the fastest car out there, it still is pretty quick and handles well for a car that's 10 years old.
Future plans, hmmm. I put a type S engine in it, got pretty much everything style wise i wanted... things i want to get - Style: mugen bumper, or maybe a greddy front lip. I want to paint the edges of the CF hood red. I'd like a projector retro. Maybe coilovers, but they aren't on any immediate to do list. Engine: header, have exhaust/hf cat, so i want a header to finish it. I don't think I want to go any wilder with an engine build or anything like that, the stock type S is really good enough for me.
Thanks!!
