I know for sure that the Prelude won't be tossable like those two were. I've unfortunately owned 2 of the best handling cars ever made, and its going to be impossible to expect that from a F/F car. Its just that I really need whatever I buy to be cheap to maintain. I'm basically trying to have some autoX fun while I save money to eventually purchase a house with a garage. THEN... as I have told my wife... THEN I will buy a monstrosity. My dream, I think, is a turboed 968. Just thinking about that makes me giddy.
The Prelude won the "cheap category" in the Ultimate Handling Test C/D did back in Sept. '97.
