The car has about 140,000kms on it. It's been parked pretty much every winter since 89. 4WS is :thumbsup:

The reason I'm selling is because I'm looking at getting a Lincoln LS.

No major mods. Let's see Weapon-R intake, Intrax Springs, 2 1/2" cat-back exhaust. I had the car painted about 20 months ago.

The car is in great shape. No rust!!! It runs perfect! It looks alright to. Turns a few heads! :nut:

Last summer I was driving on Macleod Trail near South Center and a guy in a VW pulled up and asked to buy my car. I said it's not for sale and it won't be! If you're that guy you can by it now for the price you offered me that day! Everyone else make me an offer if you're interested.

The signal lights are in now. Sorry no new pics!

it doesn't leak or burn oil at all!!! it is in great mechanical shape. the car has always been serviced on time by a honda dealership. i have alot of the receipts still. it is usually serviced by Lethbridge Honda or Grande Prairie Honda. The springs were installed by T&T in Calgary.

Also I forgot to mention that it comes with another set of rims and tires. They are not very nice though and are missing the center caps. But the tires are new on them. Also the antenna has been shaved as well. It comes with an Alpine CD player and changer.

**Forgot to mention it is an automatic with the sport shift thing. (not sure what it's called)

CrAzY_PLaYa check pm.

Wow so is that a whole new tranny from the newer ludes? I only thought they came like that on 97 and up?

no sorry dude i don't think it's called sport shift then. forget i even said that. i think it's just an overdrive type of thing but they named it something else. i don't recall the name though.

it has a regular drive gear but then a 's' gear and then there is a button on top of the shift that says 's3' and 's4'.

don't recall hondas special name for it. :dunno:

Thanks for all the comments guys/girls.

I've had alot of people telling me that the price is pretty steep but here's my reasoning if anyone cares.

I did some research on 3rd generation Preludes to see what the going price was.

I came across this 1988 for $11,000!

I know I can't base a price on that but then I seen this for $7,000!

My car has only 140,000km on it and it has probably only been driven in 2 winter in since 89. The car has been owned by my sister and then me. She took even better care of it than I did and I baby this thing just like I'm sure everyone else on this board does to their vehicles. Mine also has the 4WS which you don't see that much. It cost me $1000.00 just to have the front end shipped from Australia. Just a few things I considered when I was thinking about the price. :dunno:

I figured it was worth a shot. Once again thanks for all the comments.
