  • why is this way slower than the manual version?! :O

  • @en3rgieboy for a number of reasons... slushboxes have higher parasitic drivetrain losses, the auto is 4 gears instead of 5 in the manual, so they're more spaced out, and it shifts slower than a manual in good hands.

  • Hi, I`m thinking of getting a 98 Lude with Sportshift.. not sure about This transmission as it seems to really slow down the car and lengthen the gears are you happy with it?

  • Hi, this was my friend's car, but yes it did slow it down quite a lot. While he had it, he didn't mind having the automatic, but he sold that and bought a Civic with a 5 speed and has said he'll never go back to an automatic. The gears are pretty long, and the car will actually fall out of VTEC when shifting from 1st to 2nd even if revved all the way to 8,000.

    So get a stick :) If you don't like manuals, then honestly a Prelude probably isn't the car you want anyway ;)

  • This guy is not racing to 100, he is just cruising.  The Prelude is much faster than he is showing.

  • 24 minutes later...

  • @TheCessnaDriver I feel your pain. I lost my '01 Lude in September in an accident. She had 240,000 miles and still ran great. I miss her.

  • @TheCessnaDriver why? more power, better gas mileage if you have the v8 with the t56. my current 01 prelude auto ss with the vtec motor only gets 22.1 mpg at 60-65 mph. but it definately is a beautiful car.

  • my camry can beat that

  • man, I miss my 5th gen :( (sold it for a stupid 4th gen Camaro) Stupid.....very stupid

  • I nodded off there whilst it was accelerating, and oddly aged 3 yrs :) no seriously, good effort lol

  • Shame it's not a Manual! Preludes are the best.

  • SOoooooo slow

  • @FPGT24 Looks pretty fun for a Honda, too.
