I think you should get a fifth generation Prelude. It's a nice first car with plenty of power for now and it handles pretty good.

 

Really? I kinda like them but I'm more partial to Integras. I know a LOT about Integras as I was really close to buying one and I did a lot of research on them. I heard the Prelude is more torquey but other than that it's not too much better than any other Honda.

 

Well a Prelude doesnt' share chassis's with any other Honda. You don't have to rev the hell out of it to go with traffic since it has more tq down low compared to an Integra. Plus you see more Integras than you see Preludes.

 

SRT4...cheapeast fastest car you can buy..makes plenty of power..

 

True about the Prelude thing. I'll consider it. Thanks for everyone's help, and I REFUSE to drive an SRT-4 thanks.

SRT-4 are cheap power cars.


Get a civic and drop an H22A in it...preludes are pigs get a civic or w/e thats completely crappy and do a complete restoration. Interior, exterior, paint, rims ...save cash look good with the only reasonable honda in a 500 mile radius..blah blah blah

best bet is a honda dude..dont look at anything else..

 

My first car was a 95 eclipse GST. If it was a GSX i probably wouldn't have my evo today.

I loved that car. With my FP green i coudln't hook the tires in 3rd gear....lol

 

cobalt ?

ss s/c makes some decent power after u throw a few mods in it and the mods for it are very cheap(imo maybe thats just my definition) and maintain very well to mods, meaning they wont break but u'll want / need a tune after a few

 

2g DSMs are alright for the money, but in my books=still slow. 1g's are quicker but uglier. The reliability on them is bleeehhh. if youre lucky you'll get away, but for the most part, have a savings in hand. By the way, tell crankwalk i said hi

 

i have a 99 eclipse gsx, 36,000 original miles. no major problems yet. MBC, exhaust, lower intercooler pipes, intake, bov.

prolly have to sell it soon for some sorta 4-daoor since my wife is pregnant with another kid =(

thinkin bout picking up a evo but dunno how much maintence will be

 

well the only thing you really gotta look out for with a 95-99 dsm is if you mod it and its a 5 speed you will most likely run into crankwalk. so if you go out looking for a 2g dsm make sure it has a 6 bolt swap!
