GSX
Those DSM's are damn quick, plus the AWD, it'll probably dog it out. nothing against the prelude, thats a great car too, but i still think the gsx would edge it out.

Re: GSX eclipse vs Prelude SH ... auto X

the prelude has proven to be a competetive car in D-Stock, while the GSX has not. The GSX has too much factory body roll and is quite a bit heavier than the prelude.

you may be right, im not 100% on the history or specs of the prelude, i just know the GSX is a beast on the strip and on the twisties.

The Prelude handles better than the Eclipse, so it would probably have the upper hand in AutoX.

Re: GSX eclipse vs Prelude SH ... auto X

the DSM's dont have a good reputation for their cornering ability to say the least.
the prelude HS's where praised for being one of the best handling cars in their class or what ever. lol
I'd put my money on the prelude if the same driver who was equally experiences with each vehicle drove them both.
