97 Prelude $15,000 ish

[Mo0o]

yay or nay and what are your thoughts?

 

[StageLeft]

Nay. Thats a lot of coin.

 

[Mo0o]

it is,but its the latest gen and normally its lik 25k new

 

[iamwiz82]

<< it is,but its the latest gen and normally its lik 25k new >>



but it is 4 years old, has mileage, probably some paint damage, few dents, maybe some paint lost due to rocks hitting the hood.

 

[phatcow]

is it a type SH or no?

 

[JACKHAMMER]

Nay, not for that price. Around 12-13k is more like it. edmunds TMV

 

[Mo0o]

yes , moon roof/sun roof cd player. leather

 

[geno]

15k can get you like a 94 300ZX, or a 93 Supra TT, or a damn nice RX7 - so nay (IMO )

 

[Mo0o]

hmm...supra...twin turbo........o0oh

 

[kendogg]

well depending on the mileage and the condition .. also what kind of trim? if its a type sh and the mileage and condition is good its an OK price..

whoa rx7.. very sexshy car i wanted one but highmaintence and has a lot of problems..

 

[spidey07]

WAY too high. 12.5 maybe if it is really nice with low miles

 

[jcuadrado]

no...like others said above....you can get more car for that coin....ie Supra, 300ZX, 3000GT etc.

Depends on the year and what kind of care was taken of it. Very nice cars though. The 300ZX is great, the engine is solid, they're expensive to upgrate though. Supras are just damn nice all around, don't know what the insurance looks like though

 

[QwaarJet]

i say it's worth it. i haven't been able to find one at that price in my area. i'd gladly pay 15ish if it has under say.... 55-60k miles on it.

it's such an awesome car, my friend/co-worker had just bought a 2001 Prelude Type SH black.... my god it was beautiful and awesome to drive, but it was completly totaled within 3 weeks in the houston flood of 2001. COMPLETLY submerged for 4 days. it was aweful. you can only imagine how he took it, having to go back to his 1992 dodge caravan after driving that beauty.

but 1.5 months later now, he's driving a 2002 Acura RSX type s, the bastard i hate driving with him, because my Civic SI feels so slow afterwards D:

 

[Doggiedog]

I say yeah.

If it has a dent on the hood from when a chunk of hail the size of a softball hit it, it may be my old 97 Prelude SH.

 

[phatcow]

That is a pretty good price(compared to what i find here locally). The type SH's sell for ~ 17 k with normal mileage. Make sure the car hasnt been riced/raced/turboed etc. tho. Make sure its from a girl ~24 years old that got it right out of high school. THose are the most gentile to those types of cars.


mmmmmm
