Ok. My first car was a 95 VTECH Honda Prelude and I loved it, but wrecked it. Then I got my 96 Celica ST and have just about finished a $4000 dollar 3sgte engine swap. But I just found a local seller that is selling a 2000 Prelude with 72,000 miles on it for $4000. My dilemma is: Should I sell my newly swapped celica for 6-8 thousand and get the prelude, or keep the celica?

The IS is from a friend of mine and the prelude is from some old lady who's sun moved to Europe and she's stupid and selling it for cheap. It has an intake on it which is why I guesstimate 220. And the price is what is making it tempting.

And coldbluesteel was right. 98% of georgia hates japanese cars but I live in Peachtree City. Its a rich persons little town built for Delta pilots. A few years ago it was on the top ten places to live in the country (Dont ask me why). In PTC you will find brand new BMW 6 series, brand new porsche 911's, brand new mercedes sl 6's. We've got ferrari's and lambo's. PEACHTREE CITY is not a southern town.

Plus I'm from newport beach in cali originally so I LIKE ME MY IMPORTS

I think Bigfoot is blurry, that's the problem. It's not the photographer's fault. Bigfoot is blurry. And that's extra scary to me, because there's a large, out-of-focus monster roaming the countryside.
