well, i think preludes are overrated, in my opinion, damn good motor, they are just heavy and expensive,
and i have seen plenty of chevy eat a lude for lunch, here is why

PRELUDE 2002 model
3042 Lbs <<<REALLY HEAVY
2.2-liter dohc 16v VTEC inline-4
200 @ 7000 hosepower
156 @ 5250 torque

Pricing for a lude
5-speed manual ($23,500);
4-speed Sequential Sportshift automatic ($24,500);
Type SH ($26,000)


1998-2003 cavalier
2,676 Lbs <<<< CONSIDERABLY LIGHTER
2.2-liter dohc 16-valve four-cylinder <<<SAME ENGINE
200 @ 7000 horsepower <<<SAME HP
150 @ 4000 torque <<<LITTLE LESS TORQUE

Coupe ($14,030);
Coupe LS ($15,480);
Coupe LS Sport ($16,730);
Sedan ($14,180);
