Default anyone have a 98+ prelude

im thinking about buying a 2000 or 2001. What are the main difference between the sh's and the "regular" preludes? If anyone has one would you mind letting me know about what problems or good things you noticed about the car? Are they worth the money? ive never driven one. thanks

sh (superior handling)heavy and not worth it if your trying to build a fast car. preludes are fun cars to drive, get a manual to get the most out of that car i almost bought a 2001 sportshift. good luck

not looking for a really fast car. my priorities are: reliablity, nice looks, quick with bolt- ons and fun to drive. Im more of a show than speed person, i guess thats why i like these. anyone else?

well, i had a 01 lude. i had put a supercharger on it. it was 5 speed, and yes it was fun as hell to drive. the only thing i didnt like about it was that the back seats were tight againts the front seats. it had no room in it unless you put the front seats back some. had plenty of trunk space as well. it handled great. it was pretty quick. makes me think...i wish i never sold it. damn it. if you got the cash to buy one...do it. you wont be disappointed.

SH's have ATTS which is some type of torque relocating while in-turn electronic setup.. I'd just get a base model.

preludes are nice cars, easily capable of low 14s with bolt ons.
