Chad,
So how does that Prelude compare to the CRX? I enjoyed a ride in a 2000 model when a friend gave me a lift one time, yet the car strangely felt familiar- same handling & ride, just heavier.

You all may remeber I just totalled my 91 Si (stupid deer. I hate you.) I bought its replacement from Carmax, a 97 Prelude. Great deal, zero hassle. Got a 3 year warranty with it. Credit? Bah, I'm a 24 year old college student, what credit? They still financed me at a fair rate with a small downpayment. Can't speak well enough about them. -Chad Sullivan ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ricky Crow" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "D Wakefield" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, October 28, 2002 9:26 AM Subject: Re: CRX: Leaving List > If I were you, I'd look at 94+ Integra GS-R's...
