Nice to see someone other than myself daily driving their Prelude.
Most are long gone.

I always wanted a T-6 notchback. I believe there is a skosh more headroom for the driver, and I think they look cool.

I always thought they looked weird, but they did have a following.

Two reasons, one which Pat broached earlier: Peripheral vision was difficult for me driving, even with the seat back and reclined. Very uncomfortable.

I almost got t-boned twice, the last time I was in loose trail behind a larger 1/2 ton on a rural road...I could see the lady at an upcoming intersection look at the truck, not see me and get ready to go.
No one was behind me...I slowed to about 10 miles an hour and she pulled out, saw me for the first time and panicked. She stopped so I did as well.

She would have hit me like you read about.

I sold it a few weeks later. Did well but not 2025 well
