The stock KA motor is n/a.....but all 240 are just screaming for an SR swap, which can be just as reliable.

All the cars i listed can be reliable daily drivers, just the mustangs would have cheaper parts and insurance where as the imports would have better gas milage, and no SR swap or anything done to the cars. Thats why im keeping my fox so i can have a fast weekend/track car, and the other as a stock daily driver. I just wanted to see what people say to kinda help me through the decision process.

Just get a Prelude. You have wanted a 97+ prelude for a long time and you all ready have one Mustang plus a Prelude will get much better gas mileage. Dont jump on the band wagon.

the Prelude only gets like 24 mpg I guess that is ok but if your gonna get the 5th gen get the SH model.

I'd go with the 94+ cobra. You can't go driving around "unarmed."

prelude is definitely the worst choice of the lot. slow, heavy, ugly, insurance up the butt, but you'll be the envy of civic owers everywhere.

daily driver go for the prelude. Decent quality and great relability.
I guess insurance will be a bit high because its a honda and they always get stolen.

ah..shit, just get the 240 they are so sexy looking. I know nothing about the reliabilty of them.

I personally can't stand the interior ergonomics of a mustang. They're terrible.

That puts it between the 240 and Prelude.

for a daily driver, when i already have a fast car to play with, Prelude is my choice.
