Spotted: San Marino Red 5G in Mansfield - Honda Prelude Forum

Sharp looking car- red, lowered, bronze rims that looked like Circuit 8's or similar. Was headed east on 1187/Debbie near 157.

Anyone in the club?

I read the title and immediately thought, "that was me, Todd!"....then all it took was to read the first words in the body of the post to realize it wasn't me.

Ughh... still a warmed over GM from the latter of their dark days... be prepared to invest a lot in parts and downtime.

Whoever's car I saw, it was definitely lowered. The wheels didn't look bigger than 16's and the tires, though probably 55's, were tucked. Definitely not stock ride height.
