    Until a year ago, I had an 01 (5th gen) Prelude. Great car, but not a good
    option for anyone who needs to sit in the back seat. As a senior citizen, I
    cared for the car and never abused it so when I sold it it went right away.
    Most Preludes I have seen have been modified and abused, so a stock one is
    rare. The automatic has been problematic, so a manual it better. Look at
    the maintenance records as well. I now drive an I4 Accord coupe automatic
    and like it. But, the Prelude is a lot more fun to drive, particularly when
    the VTEC cuts in around 5300 rpm.
