Okay guys sorry, i Had to get a new car, and i couldnt bring myself to buy a 5th gen maxima... sorry 5th gen's. Anyways after test driving a Prelude, WRX, Mercedes CLK 230 Kompresser coupe (that car is so popular that if you ordered one now you would get it in December so i said no) i have decided on a 2001 Honda Prelude VTEC. 5 Speed (Finally Yay!!) carbon fiber trim, 6 disc cd, Black, Etc. But i will always hang out here because this is the best automotive forum and enthusiast website on the internet, i love posting here. So please dont flame me too bad for getting a honda.

Me either. He upgraded his car and is worried about Minimas flaming him.....

At least he doesn't have a Minima anymore, but has something with a degree of quality control.

Congrats on the new purchase cRedrum!

I liked the prelude better, and i thought it looked better. the WRX was too small for me. I know its not much bigger than the prelude but the front seat was small.

Congrats!!!!!!

I don't see a reason to flame you. Preludes are nice. Although I don't like the front end of the new Preludes that much. But be happy, they are being discontinued so your car will always stay "new"

Why flame you? You're probably about to experience unbelievable handling. Any true car enthusiast says drive the cars you're interested in and choose the one that feels the best to you. Good luck in your purchase.
