I was looking into buying a prelude as my next car. My only concern is about gas milage. What kind of gas milage do you get with your prelude? I was looking into getting either a 92-96 si 5spd or a 97+ 5spd. Thanks in advance.

preludes aren't bad on gas. just don't hit vtec all the time. keep it under 3 grand and you'll save gas.

They aren't that good on gas either. Plus you'll be buying premium all the time. Get a teg if you're worried about it.
