I guess I hadn't been thinking front wheel drive... sure does open up some options. The prelude is interesting... I have lots of time before February to read up on them... a cursory search shows some really good examples for around $7000, but my fear would be parsing through all the riced, high-schooler owned examples to find a nice one. Then again, I suppose that's how I get some fun stories to tell you all about
Did I tell you all about how I drove on the Nurburgring last month in a 135i? I have a datalog to post if anyone is interested...
