I am still frustrated with how Honda almost had a perfect design

If only the front half of the 5th generation Prelude was a 4th generation Prelude from the door back.

I thought the fifth gen Prelude would have been perfect if the front end looked like the one on the third gen Prelude but without the rub strip.

I love the H22, though, since it’s Honda rev rev rev as fuck but still kinda makes torque.

Can we compromise with the Accord Euro R?

I like the 5th bum :( It’s a little plain, but it’s nice.

Perfection is hardly the term I’d use for something so...front-driven

The 4th’s ass suits the 5th so well, though.

I see your point. Makes sense I guess.

I’m of the opinion that the 5th gen takes its styling cues directly from the 3rd gen, as if Honda are trying to correct public reaction to the design of the 4th. Think about it: straight lines, square headlights, horizontal-bar tails.

The 5th gen looks awesome as-is, even though the 4th gen looks cooler (and of course, it has that awesome digital dash spanning the whole front of the interior!)

That Euro 4g is really cool with the rear fog and rear wiper!

You’re both wrong — the correct answer is the Accord Aerodeck

Why don’t you try a front-end swap and make one?

That’s because the answer is always Accord Aerodeck.

I always felt the opposite. I prefer the nose of the 4th and the tail of the 5th.

Cleanest prelude I’ve ever seen in my life this morning.

Everyone always points tot he 5th gen for looking terrible, but I don’t mind it. There’s actually one for sale near me...I’m thinking about looking at it.
