    Add one more...

    I would suggest you add one more Honda to that list... the Accord. It is roughly the same price as the Prelude. Although it isnt a sports car, its probably the Honda I would go for. The Civic although is an alright car... it definitely has to be customized to have some style. The prelude is probably the lowest option sports car Honda makes and the Integra is just a sports saloon. Outta the three you chose... I would go for the Prelude... but outta all the Hondas, the Accord definitely.

    integra TYPE-R is the best, bro

    its so fast, and looks cool, and also it has back seat which is good for carrying stuffs like groceries and fish..u know, anyway, this is considered one of the fastest front wheel drive cars

    Out of the three listed, my choice would be for the Prelude, from what I understand -please correct me if I'm wrong - the Integras lack low-end torque, so you're always up in the revs to make decent power which has turned some people off of these cars.

    She's a girl, and she wants something "to look cool in". Why is she looking at a Honda? She should be buying herself a Miata! That car is designed for her!

    i know it s not but i think the RX8 is the most sexy of all of those so i thought if the RX8 is around the price of the prelude it might be better for here

    Unhappy

    Don't go for the Civic, please. I found a good quote somewhere once: "Racing a Civic is like racing a snail." (something like that anyways).

    Anyways, all the cars here have their plusses and minuses. I did a little research myself on the cars and fugured that I'd go for a Prelude. But really, why not look at something other than Honda?
