A friend and I installed my new suspension.

Very nice Prelude! I have a 98 Prelude myself. Unfortunately, its got many, many miles on it and is showing its age. Not sure how much longer it'll last but when it goes, I plan on keeping it and rebuilding it. It's a great car. I especially like the spoiler-less look. Is yours a base or Type SH?

Nice! Mines at ~189,500miles (~305,000km's) and still running.

My 98 Honda Prelude base. 5spd manual. The wheels were on it when i bought the car. The taillights are also aftermarket. I'd like to change back to oem taillights but unless i can find someone willing to trade oem lights for the ones i have, I'm not going to bother. Aside from the wheels and taillights, it's stock. I'm so busy with school and work that i don't have time to do anything. Plus, at 189k miles, I'm saving my money for any repairs that may come up. Its already consuming oil at a faster than normal rate.

This is what I drive as of late. Needs a good wash and wax.

Wish it had head-lights on the front bumper like I've seen some others of the same model have, but oh well. Don't think its possible to change it now as it is a 2005 year model.

Been wanting to put some wheels on it since I am not liking the ol' Steel wheels with hubcaps. Any recommendations? I'd have no idea where to start..

I agree 100%. After two 3 series, a 5 series, and an M3, I left the brand due to excessive pricing and cost of repairs. I bought a Subaru STi for $15-20K less than a AWD 335i and am perfectly happy with it.

I agree as well. Graduating med school in a few years and I was looking into the F30, but WTF, they charge you extra for any color except black and white?! Kind of insulting IMO. They seem like great cars though, and my parents own an E39 that is amazing even with close to 200k miles. I'll probably go with a Miata, FR-S, or similar rear-drive sports car.

^^^Honestly the FR-S intrigues me. I'm bummed about its supposed lack of power, but then again my last E30 was about the same weight, and down on power, but it was a blast! I just don't like the overly complicated engine bay on the newer cars :-( I can't wait to see how it does in street prepared and stock classes!

Picked up my Dads' Elan from his mechanic last night, new roll cage + seat + plumbed in fire system + fuel tank etc.. Less than a year before I can drive this, CAN'T WAIT! (Apologies for the appalling photo, will post some more post his first race on June 8th :eek:)

2007 Acura TL Type S. Got a great deal on it to finally replace the old Accord I drove for 9 years. So much fun to drive :)
