Okay, we walk that back, sorta
When we said you weren’t likely to find a third generation Prelude that hadn’t been abused or badly modified? These images make us eat those words. What a supremely tossable-looking little car— looks like terrific, inexpensive fun. Kudos to the owner for doing right by these cars— wish we came across more of this sort of thing.
I love the F u in the background of the first image 🙂

Glad to see you coming around to the 3G Prelude.
Oh, on the topic of tossable and potentially bucket-list-worthy FWD cars: the B13 Sentra SE-R. Thoughts?

no, i’ve always liked the 3g prelude.
the b13 sentra se-r also— it’s made a couple of grab bags. i think it’s status as a future classic is secure:

I remember driving one in HS around 96-97 that had the 4 wheel steering. I was very impressed with the handling.

I know this car. It has been in the ATL region scca since I started in 2009.
It’s now running wide Hoosiers in a street prepared class. Still clean too.
