I baught a 94 Prelude S with 141k miles on it. Has a F22A1 in it.
Here is what it needs; Bit of engine work, only running on 3 cylinders(kinda). Has compression, changed plug wire, plug, etc.. could be injector, maybe rings? Windshield(Got one quoted, they come to house and install it, $163.. Got that cash already, but saving incase I need for engine.) Rear quarter rust(usual honda cancer) Drivers side rear quarter needs a bit of bondo Small dent on passenger door(bondo, or pop back.. both? lol) Front bumper(lol) Passenger side fender(least of my worries tbh) Drivers side CV Boot/axle (it clicks when you turn left, whatever though) That's about it really. I got it for $500, and drove it back about 2 hours. Not trying to dog on Celica's, I love Celicas and all, but atm the prelude running on 3 cylinders smokes my 7afe celica.. then again I haven't driven my celi in a few months.. And the prelude made it back on 3 cylinders and such 2 hours, celica can't drive an hour without blowing a gasket.. lmfao.. I love my celica though.. Sad i gotta get rid of it(or fix it for cheap cheap cheap)... But i'm prolly gonna part it(already got a thread) Pics. -------------------- I still own my celica, but i'm parting it out and junking it.. Or selling as a whole. Have a honda prelude now :(

Vtec is for pussies imo. You DO realize that Toyota has their version of "vtec"....vvtL-i. Honestly dude. I know you probably want a sporty looking car to drive around, but to me, it sounds like you just need a reliable source of transportation. Why would you buy that poorly-running, rotting Honda when you could have bought a decent Corolla, Prism (corolla in denial), or Civic for just a few hundred bucks more? A Prelude with all the problems that it has is not going to be a reliable daily driver for you. You are going to have to throw twice into that car just to get it road worthy than had you spent a few hundred more and bought a car to get you from point A to point B.
