Prelude vs. Civic?

Well personally I think that civics have way better gas mileage. At least more than my dual carbs 24-27MPG. But I still believe Preludes are more comfortable to drive, have better pickup, and look better. What do u all think? BTW any1 have an older prelude for sale, preferably a fuel injected?:rolleyes:

Oh man, by asking that here you probably know the answer you'll get :wink: I love the cockpit to my 4th gen; I have ridden in and driven Civics of all generations (including the older and newer ones) and none of them were nearly as nice as a Prelude's cockpit. It feels like you're in a pilot's seat steering a plane.

Both have their strengths and weaknesses. The aftermarket is more friendly to the civic, gas prices are more friendly to the civic, cheapness is more friendly to the civic, etc. But, after all you do to it, it's still a civic..

Stock for stock, the prelude wins hands down. Better suspension, cabin, acceleration, motor.. the list goes on and on..

I ride a Bicycle to work.

me too! Bikes rule. Unless you're trying to pick up girls!

I don't know what u mean error. I pick up girls on my bike all the time. The key is to pimp it out just like u would a car. Neon underglow, pink handlebars, wheel glitter, and a BIG horn on the front that plays ice cream truck music. Maybe even a tachometer. With neon blue glow of course!

Pink underglow, I hope. With those blinker lights that you screw on your tires.

Slap on some low pros and chrome spinners while you're at it. :naughty:

man.. that must be my problem.. because I'd never put that shit on my car.

I owned a 1995 Civic before my 94 lude, I love my cockpit on my prelude, I agree with aceshigh!!! I love it. MY civic was decked out, i did everything to it, but once i drove the prelude, i was in love. So much better, like prelewd said.... the list goes on and on and on and on

If that isnt a cool cockpit to look out of, then i dunno what is! :D

I have owned two Civics and love the gas mileage. But my Prelude is the car I have liked the most.

my bike has mugen parts ands stickers, it can do 100 mph easily :P

I drive a Moped...

It has a 250cc DOHC 4-valve single-cylinder 4-stroke fuel and nitrous injected turbocharged engine......
WITH A MOTEC SYSTEM EXHAUST!!!

They both obviously have their advantages.

If I was Honda, I would take my well-mileaged, lightweight car, mix it with the bigger displacement, torquier motor, sleek styles, well-crafted suspension. Hey look!!! I just built an Integra!!!

Dont forget the stock Recarro Bucket seats :smile:

point being?

they are better than civic seats

exactly you have a 4th gen im surprised you even asked that question

wtf? why r u guys talking about bikes
isnt this a question about civics or preludes???

preludes are the shit. my 92 lude is one of the last ones made in japan and its one of the nicest cars ive driven. i would much rather have my lude then a civic any day.

if you want the same car as everyone else, get a civic, if you want a sportier, sleeker, eye catching, quicker, more comfortable, and did i mention SEXIER ride get a PRELUDE

my prelude is the best car i have ever driven so far. i love it.

Hey now! No need to bring that OTHER car into this. OK! Preludes, Civics, and bikes. THATS ALL!

I was talking about the page 1 comment. Didn't realize there were 2 pages MY BAD.

There's an edit button down there too.. :biggrin:

dohhhh a prelude is better just compare the handlings and u'll know. Anyhow I just fried a lude with my pontiac this weekend :D

ludes over Civics any day. There are only 2 advantages to a Civ, and they both fall under the category of practicallity: cheaper, and easier on the gas. Besides that, Ludes whoop its ass in every other category. Honda must have payed the after market companies a lot of money to produce so many after market parts for a peice of shit like a Civic.

car companies pay companies to produce after market parts? i don't know about that reply?? i would think they decide to make the parts on their own business decisions, and even though i have a prelude, i think the civic makes companies lots more $ on after market parts than any other car on the market. take a look at all the civics you see with after market parts, i see hundreds all the time

Hey look some one else voted for civics
im surprised! not bc preludes are better than civics or anything like that, but this poll is in a prelude forum (so most likely ppl here would vote prelude)

this thread is almost two months old... it needs to go away :(

Its also a repeat offender.
The same question has been asked at least twice before.

Thread closed.

(and civic are faster and handle better, but preludes are a lot more comfterble, and far, far better made.)
