I can't believe prelude is $42000 vs type r is $45000 USD. Isn't the type r like $68000 here? And gr is $39000

GR Corolla is 50K CAD for Core... if you can find it. Though the hype is less vs Type R, easier to find GRC for sure.

Looks so frumpy and large. The only thing I like is the prelude script. Looks so classy and reminds me of my youth.

I got downvoted on Reddit for pointing out the similarities between the Prelude and the new Ferrari Amalfi:
- Look about the same
- Both borrow parts from its more expensive siblings
- Both are overpriced
- Both have useless rear seats
Seems like the same car to me.

Umm I’ll take the Ferrari thank you very much.
You also forgot to mention they both have four wheels and a steering wheel.

I can’t say I agree.
That said, it’s brave to post anywhere public expecting people to discern you mean something being in the same spirit of, most of the morons out there can’t get past “this fuck says a Honda is the same as a Ferrari, burn him!” mentality.

I just watched the redline reviews, the engine surprisingly sounds good, but yes the beak head thing is too long. Trunk too Infiniti j30 shitting dog ass without the optional spoiler. Interior looks pretty mid, manual seats for $50000 gt Honda? No cooling?! Back seat looks so shit without even cup holders or headrests, also back seat space is useless.

Seems like the same car to me. | The Amalfi has much better looking proportions than the Prelude though -- a longish hood and a much tidier rear.
The problem with the Prelude is -- the rear hatch starts sloping down too early, leaving too long a deck / area between the rear glass and the edge of the truck/hatch. They should have put a sizable wing in there to take up the real estate. A dinky lip spoiler or small wing is not gonna cut it.
I saw one dealer posting in FBM asking for $49,xxx for the car. Didn't look further into it, but that's below Honda's MSRP of $53k.
