rarest 4th gen? - Honda Prelude Forum

fleshbox · 06-16-2003, 04:27 PM

Which it harder to find:
4th gen Si 4WS 5 speed or 4th gen VTEC 5 speed?

It seems like when I do a search on autotrader and specify manual I don't find a single 4WS within like 200 miles, but when I search for autos also I get like 4 within 100 miles.... So I was just curious...

well since every 4th gen vtec came with 5 speed its not as rare as the 4ws 5 speed...i think any 4ws is more rare than a vtec

SlowSi · 06-16-2003, 04:37 PM

I'd say 5 spd 4WS also.

willmbrk · 06-16-2003, 04:41 PM

5 speed 4WS for sure. I have only seen a few 4WS models for sale in San Diego, and one of them was an auto.

fleshbox · 06-16-2003, 05:04 PM

they sure are hard to find.... it sucks badly.... although the one I'm looking at right now is a 93 4WS 5 speed... blue book is like 4500 and hes asking 6800.... but it comes with snow tires on steelies... so I guess thats worth 2300

Silver V-TEC??

prelude styl · 06-16-2003, 06:53 PM

Yeah, probably a silver vtec would be the rarest of them all due to the fact that in the USA, Vtec's didn't come in silver, so the only 2 ways a silver lude is a vtec is, if they painted it silver, or they did a swap.

I AM THE WINNER!!! I WON!! I know the VTEC did not come with a silver body, such a beautiful color......should have VTEC! Wouldn't it be funny to see VTEC ludes in Silver? Prelude meet 2004; birmingham, AL; about 50000 silver ludes and about 13 other colors?

Hey if you are looking at the 93 4WS online can you send us the link. I have a 93 Si and I was not aware the 93 came with 4WS. I think that 92 was the last year it was offered. I could be wrong though, but if I am not I would not want you to get screwed getting something that is not there!

blacklude4k · 06-16-2003, 09:00 PM

it was offered all the way up to 94 but the 94 ones are very rare

prelude styl · 06-16-2003, 10:40 PM

here in the states at least, in the UK, Australia and Asia every year prelude up until 2002 had 4WS.

MidNKight-lude · 06-16-2003, 11:12 PM

the rarest lude are then 94-95 si Pacific Blue Pearl Lude.

i have only seen one lude that color, and it was the first and only time in LA. i have heard of a few otheres . bwahhaha we win sorry.

Absolut · 06-16-2003, 11:26 PM

93 4WS right here.

The rarest 4th Gen is the 93-94 Black, 5spd, 4WS.
I have the production numbers around here somewhere, there were something like 2000 Black 5spd 4WS ludes ever made. 99% of all 4WS ludes are BBGM.

EDIT: Rarest Prelude = 4WS VTEC

Since the meet, I have seen 3. Go figure.

I printed out some PO flyers that I will place next time I see the PBP ludes.

I think I win. I have a 94 5speed 4WS. Last year 4WS was offered in the US Prelude

I've never seen a 4WS for sale, ever, anywhere... I see VTECs all the time for sale. People say they're rarer than they really are.
