Prelude or Civic?

I think the civic would be the better choice, im not sure though. I Like the look of the prelude better though, and everyone buys civics?

Which is lighter?
Anything else I should know if i purchase a honda, cuz for 1, im gonna do a engine swap with out a doubt....
thanx

it really depends on what you're looking for. looks...? power/performance...? and what years for each model are you talking about? but honestly i think the prelude is the better choice of the two. an h22 whomps your B16... at least at stock specs. but if you're looking to swap then get a civic. don't get me wrong, i have a civic EX and did a swap and i love my car. wouldn't give it up for a prelude any day.

i would go with a prelude with gun turrets on the sides. you could then buy a civic and do an engine swap on it then melt it down for ammo for your gun turrets. from the sounds of things, your parents are buying this car for you. in that case i would hit them up for a rocket launcher or two. that would compliment the gun turrets nicely.

i have a 97 prelude and i would really like a deadly arsenal of weapons to accentuate my cars sheer awesomeness. im saving up though. right now all that i have is a mechanical wang that shoots marshmellow goo out of the tip...not very intimidating IMO but its all that i could afford...holla back

Re: Prelude or Civic?

Preludes are heavier - they're like one of the heaviest frontwheel drive imports you can buy.

If you're going ballsout for racing and no rice, go with the civic, but that doesn't mean that Preludes can't be made fast - they just don't have the potential that a Civic has because of the drastic weight difference.

Re: Prelude or Civic?

Yeah, the prelude doesnt have the potetial of a civic but it has power to back it up, but im just wondering what kind of swap is he gonna do for the civic?
