I remember watching you auto cross the lude. Its a tough decision. I have it in the back of my mind as well. 500 bucks a month for the S plus almost 100 to insure it. I would love to have that in my pocket instead

Wow! I really like what you have done with the Prelude Seems like that car means A LOT more to you than the S does.

Financially, selling the S would be your best choice and sadly, I don't think your lude will fetch the money you are asking for it

An alternative would be returning the lude to stock and selling it, surely you would be able to recoup enough money to make selling it worthwhile. But trying to sell a modded car never helps resale, you just end up losing money in the mods.
Thanks, and I think you're right. Although I think there are a few people out there that would be willing to buy the car at that price the buyer pool is certainly small.

If I can stabablize things, I think I might take the Prelude back to stock to use as a daily for a while. I may be able to work it out where I can keep the S along with the part out or I could sell it and buy a newer S or even a CR later.

Tough call. I love that gen of Prelude, i would take my S over it any day of the week, but seeing as you have an emotional connection to the Lude it makes it a hard one.

Good luck with your decision

Nows your chance Pete! and Thanks!

Another option to consider, keep the S and the Prelude but bring the Prelude back to stock and potentially make $4k or more on the parts. Prelude becomes daily driver/bad weather car.

Id say keep the lude sell the S. Its a lot easier to buy another stock S then to replace your lude.
