The only people talking are either those only capable of pointing out the obvious (that 260hp Mustang GT is really faster than my 'lude? Are you sure? The VTEC sticker gives me quite a bit...) or being oversensitive about crap.

you still don't get it. You might not have intended to just point out the obvious, but that's all you did.
I got my Prelude because:
a). It's fun. It's not as fast as a Mustang or Mitsu Eclipse, but it's a lot more fun. I love VTEC, I love the challenge of hanging in the twisties with a FWD and keeping it on the big cam.
b). It's refined. Compare it to any Integra, Civic, Eclipse or domestic sports coupe, and it's a truly distinctive and refined car.
c). It's fast... for a naturally aspirated, small-engine import. I don't compare my 'lude to Mustangs or Camaros, because I know they're out of my league. When I say my car is fast, I mean compared to that Civic SiR, Integra GS-R or Celica GT-S. If I ran a 14.6 at the track, I'd be happy as hell too. I know the domestic guys would laugh, but then again modded Supra TT owners laugh at them, and in turn, modded domestic big block owners laugh at the TT owners... and then you have the professional draggers.
d). It's practical for what I need.
Happy?
BTW, what's wrong with dragging in a Prelude? Sure we're not as fast as the turbos and small blocks, but it's still fun going to the drag strip. It's still fun seeing how your driving has gotten better, or how your mods have affected performance.
Chill out.
