Re: prelude, ultimate chick car?

the ultimate chick car is the prowler. looking at that thing you would think it has a v-8, but then come to find out it only has a v-6. the ultimate cheap chick car is the celica.

Re: prelude, ultimate chick car?

Preludes are not chick cars, the H22 has a decent amount of Torque and there are some fast ones mucking about.

The del Sol however.....

chick car

eh highest horses for ludes is 220 with 163 torqe and thats only in the jdm h22a and for the price it would cost to ether have a a us lude converted eo that or for a newish lude with 200hp you could buy a 300zx tt or a car comparable, dont get me wroung i love how preludes look i just think they need to be rwd and at least have a bigger motor.

the prelude is nowhere near a chick car, the worse chick car is the newest celica, and any white honda civic, preludes have hondas fastest 4 banger engine, and they can burn lots of other 4 bangers on the street, i think of it as a much more classy car also

that is a pretty good list. but you will probably get flamed by a few of af's members with the mustang one.
