are you serious?
prelude and here's why:
1. faster
2. handles better, way better
3. not everyone and their mothers have one
4. faster
5. you'll get more looks
6. you won't get lost in the clutter
7. faster
8. oh that sweet H22
9. much harder pull when in higher cams than the si
10. faster
11. not overrated like the si is
12. much better manual tranny
13. faster
14. you won't have to spend $$$ getting a civic to be as fast as the lude
15. looks better, IMO.
16. did i mention faster?
17. enough room in the trunk for two bottles of nitrous...and nothing else:D
18. back seats are useless so you won't have to car pool
19. holds its resale value better than the si
20. DRIVE ONE AND YOU'LL FIGURE IT OUT ON YOUR OWN!!:D
sure you can get an si to be faster than the lude with the right mods, and the aftermarket is a lot bigger for the si, but it's a civic. if you don't care for much room, if you're willing to pay a higher insurance premium and a few thousands more for the car itself, definately the lude.
