Oh man, I'm gonna be crying myself to sleep for weeks over this news. No way the rs-x can compete with the pure beauty of the Prelude. Just look at it! It's just not nearly as refined looking, it looks too tall, and too short. Give me the Prelude anyday. Looks like I'm gonna have to pick up one second hand if I ever get one, because I sure don't have the cash to buy one now. Dang, this is bad. I love the prelude. Why!?!:cry:

Yeah, I know man, life's a bitch, it does suck. The RS-X and Prelude have obviously very different heritages. The Prelude is so much lower and sleeker. I personally like the RS-X for my styling tastes, but I hear you, and I see where you're coming from.

It's quite obvious that there isn't a market large enough to support the prelude. It's a shame, but I guess that's life. A lighter weight prelude would have been nice. It's too bad honda never implemented an inline 6 / RWD platform with the prelude. I guess that's what they were aiming for with the S2K, but there probably wouldn't have been a market for it and it would have cost more than it does already which I think is one of its weaknesses.

I like that picture that GOD posted. It has some styling cues from the 4th gen lude. It looks nice and I'd be anxious to drive one.

Man oh man, it's a good thing they didn't put a inline 6/RWD combo in the 'lude, because if they did, I would have aquired myself one by now. And since I don't have the money, it would have been stolen.

I've heard that a hardtop S2000 will be the replacement for the prelude, but I didn't get it from a reliable source...just a friend. 90% sure he was full of it..

I was just at the Honda dealership, and they are NOT discontinuing the Prelude. They are redesigining it, but they said that they are too big of a seller to get rid of. What a relief that is! The rs-x is just the replacement for the Integra. I read some supporting articles on the Honda web site too, so all you 'Lude Dudes can rejoice.
