Which One ?! :)

are you kidding me. Ofcourse the camaro

are you kidding me. Ofcourse the camaro
Camaro

Agreed

Prelude!
Much more stylish!
Nine outta ten people know a Camaro when they see one. They are insanely common Who wants to be just like everyone else? High technology and modern styling over white trash/spoiled teenager rides. To tune a Camaro would definitly take alot more money and time, whilst the Prelude would be much simpler and less time consuming. From what I can tell it looks to have a lower center of gravity. Cars with a properly placed c.o.g. are SO much more intense to drive.

....But this is just me :mrgreen:

Camaro all the way, a lot more power and more agressive stance, also the basic Z28 looks bad but the fully loaded SS looks great

Camaro all the way

I know nothing about camaros so I can't really choose.

The prelude would get killed. The camaro RS, whichs the weakest model has a V6 3.8L engine pushing over 200 horses. The Camaro SS, which my cousin has with the Xenon body kit, has a cool 325 horses out of a V8 5.7L Engine. My cousin got a intake, exhaust and dropped a supercharge on the engine, the car is pushing more then 500 hores!!! (the total expense was only $6000). It has a beautiful body as well

Supercharger? are you kidding me, it takes some serious stuff to add forced induction to an LS1, too much compression and the internals are not that strong, i think that would cost some more

Wow, there's a bit of assumtions being made. Apparently "which one?" Means, "Which ones faster?" Good call guys. Well I guess its back to a matter of opinion more or less, but I'd rather have two wicked sounding turbos than a strained supercharger. I'd rather have a more fuel efficient car for everyday driving. I'd rather have this:

http://www.wingswest.com/product_images/519/570_l.jpg
Yeah, I guess it comes downn to a personal prefrence to style, or lack there of. I've read about Preludes kickin' out over 400 hp with alot of work, so I don't really see why i shouldn't be able to take anything Camaro stock. Anyway, I've grown to dislike the Camaro in many aspects. I've seen more than I wish to coming through my work at McDonalds. Too "white trash/spolied teen " as I've said before. Yeah, diffrent minds, diffrent thoughts. So the story goes, we can't all agree on everything.

The camaro/firebirds are great cars but i'd rather go with the honda, more comfortable more trunk space and better reliability, and if you take a stock camaro versus a stock prelude the prelude would win :shock: why? cuz youd probebly run outta gas half way through the race with the 5.7l v-8 or the 3.8l v-6. :P :P lol just joking but the prelude would still win

but the prelude would still win
I dunno about that, stock? I sorta doubt it. Anyone know the solid figures?

The Prelude would lose, because,

Cost to modify a Camaro SS=10.000
Cost to Modify a Prelude with weird ugly useless shat=50,000

in the end==

Prelude= 450hp
Camaro=600hp

for now, Ellis Juan (Ell-Is-Juan=LS1) all the way :D

Wow, thats just simply a useless argument.
#1 you're not giving anything specific and throwing figures out for the modification costs.
#2 you simply don't like how the custom Perlude looks, so you're gonna be a stupid jerk about it anyway.
#3 Even if I did spend more on a Prelude, I'd take it over a White Trash Camaro! Do I need to reenforce this statement anymore?! I know who the majority of Camaro owners eat, McDonalds. Cause I work there! Nine outta ten don't take care of them, they can't read too well apparently, and their english is barely decipherable. I don't wanna be associated with those people in the least! Neither with the other half of the owners, who are asshole spoiled litle Highschool kids.

What? Vortec makes kits for STOCK LS1's

prelude all the way, not to say the camaro is bad, but honda just makes a better car

I have one question for the people who choose the Prelude: What are you smoking? It must be good, because it is really affecting your ability to make rational desicions.

The Camaro, by far. The last gen prelude could barley make 200hp. I remember reading an article on a prelude meet. the fastes on did high 12's. HIGH 12's. The fastest (based off of a stock body) camaro i've seen did low 8's. modifying any camaro is much, much eaiser than a prelude. This is due in part to the many products available, and the fact that it will porbaly be a V-8. I don't care who you are, modifying a VTEC might be simpler than a toyota engine, but it's still no easy task . Same goes with a V-8, but it is simpler than a 4 cylinder.

I already mentioned my reasons for not wanting the Camaro, and it had NOTHING to do with numbers and figures. Again, Preludes are more fuel efficient, and I like the style INFINITELY better. Those modified Preludes and Camaros are probably totally stripped inside and have a roolcage, racing seat, and gages. I want some practicle tuning and mods done, so my best bet is with the Prelude for selection and price. Gah, I'm not going to repeat myself anymore, I'm so dione with this post!

I think camaros are alot cheaper than preludes.

That is absolutely incorrect in the long run, you will be paying more for insurance, gas, and the morbid repair bills from your unrepbidable GM mechanic

Ok...I seen this topic...had to reply.....CAMARO'S ARE THE BOMB!!! I don't think the prelude has a chance really....I'm a big camaro fan and know for sure that the 35th anniversery edition has prettty impressive stats....I drove the 35th anniversery edition from a friend who has it, and let me tell u, it's awesome!!

like i said the prelude would win: during the middle of the race the prelude would lag but then the camaro will run out fo gas becasue of its huge displcement. and in the end the vtec prelude will win

the camaro didn't get really bad gas mileage! Probaly a little less than the prelude. And the displacement wasn't really that big, i think it was a 302.

i looked up some prices on kbb.com and found some interesting stuff. The Honda retained its value so kuch better than the Camaro! A '99 Prelude with the 2.2-liter VTEC in excellent condition and with 60,000 miles is valued at $12,075. Now a '99 Camaro Z28 with it's HUGE 5.7-liter V-8, excellent condition, and 60k miles is only worth $8,000. GM quality sucks, Honda quality is great. That makes a big role in my descision for this topic, even though the cars aren't the best ones to compare :-p Prelude over Camaro and day for me still.

agreed :lol: 8)

camaro
1: its REAR wheel drive,
(only idoits would choose a shitty fwd over a rwd)
2: theres no way in hell a prelude would be cheaper to mod...
3: gay sounding exhaust
4: my friends ls1 z28 can run high 11s low 12s with 150 shot nos, NO OTHER MODS
(try taht with a prelude, maybe 13secs?)
anways isnt it hard to twin turbo a 4 banger?
how about a twin turbo Ls1?
yea go by kbb
in about 20 years the prelude is gonna be a hot car... :roll:
while the camaro was the modern muscle car will be a legend like the 67-69s.
& last but not least the only hondas that will be worth alot in the future is the:
nsx
integra type R
civic type R

u forgot the S2000

In regard to turbo charging, there's a reason that large engine's aren't usually turbo! "Four gangers" are easier to turbocharge and it is cheaper and easier to mod the VTEC. Parts are more readily available, not like super speciatly GM Performance parts. They are more expensive because of a higher demand to supply ratio as opposed to the endless supply to a lower demand for "four Banger" VTEC mods. And stop quoting 0-60 and 1/4 mile times, we've already established that is doesn't matter if your car is faster if its going to fall apart and be a pain in the face to maintain. Okay, so not only does it cost less to mod a Prelude, but it's much safer to to tune it than an already unstabley built Camaro. You are really asking something to go super wrong if you mod a POS GM built Camaro. Ah, I give up. I'm not gonna post anymore, I've said all that's needed to be said.

hell yeah thats right a POS camaro lol

unstably built...
everything thats not japanese is unstable: how about honda trannys going bad at 60,000 miles? (accord, prelude, legend)
yea the POS camaro will be worth less in the future compared to a Legendary prelude
LOL
how many races does the prelude race in anyways?
and if its such a good car why doesnt the japanese game Gran Turismo 3 have it?
speaking of demand, so that means many people want these parts, meaning it not rare
too bad i like to be original not a dime a dozen

hell yeah thats right a POS camaro lol

Camaros are not POS, they are great cars, not for everybody, but all the people who buys them cannot be wrong, they power delivery is a hell lot better than a turboed four banger, and even if GM quality sucked at that point it has certainly improved, and camaro wasnt so bad either, maybe a cavalier, ok, but camaro was way better, at least in the highest trim levels.

the only differenc ein the higher trim levels were engien size and interior cloth seats changed to leather which made a BIG differenc ebut what i really hate about the camaro is the lack of rear headroom, and the horrible center console, but its still a cool car in some aspects

i take back the post i made earlier..in my opinion the camero will have a slight advantage over the prelude when racing, dont get me wrong..i love the prelude but i personally think a stock z28 would be faster then a stock prelude.. too bad they stopped producing the prelude....

they will ocme out with a replcement for sure maybe even in 2005

thats cool

no i was thinking of the top models, but even the lower levels the camaro will still come out on top

SuperSport vs type sh

Not even a comparo....camaro all the way....

I have a 2000 SS.....350 RWHP about 410 at the flywheel.....

a few bolt-ons

My Dad just got a pralude that things fast, but a camaro is too ive drove my x-boyfriends camaro before too, jus wantin to know everyones opinion bout them

Funny how you mention people that drive Camaros are white trash, when you live in Ohio and work at McDonalds.

Yep, and listen to techno, and like Japnese sports cars, and use proper grammar, have a vocabulary that goes overs peoples heads. Notice I work at McDonalds and hate it. Notice I was born and raised in Ohio and hate it. Also notice thaty ou don't even know me and try to tell me who I am..... :?

HAHAAHAAH you told his stupid ass!!!!!!!!

wait...he told my stupid ass? if i didn't miss something this prick labeled me like he knew me or something based on two very stupid facts... Oh, I dress in clothes that do not consist of white tank tops and jeans, I am clean shaved and dye my hair dark red on occasion. how is that white trash combined with my last post? seriously, i'm very lost :oops:

you guys should stop with the name calling and just leave it at that. Get on with things and stop being childish it doens't matter who started this but what we don't need is racism on a forum like this where we are suppose to be tlaking aobut cars, not who is white trash or who is not

wait...he told my stupid ass? if i didn't miss something this prick labeled me like he knew me or something based on two very stupid facts.

Isnt that what you just did when you said Camaro owners are white trash :lol:

Anyways both cars good at what they do, I have a Z28 and I agree the build quality of the honda is going to be much better than the Camaro but if your looking for performance its no contest id take the Z28 any day.

whatever you need to tell yourself

What did you expect a Z28 owner to say, a Prelude is better performance wise than a Z28 lol I don't think so.

Now if I had the choice between a v-6 Camaro and a Prelude, id take the prelude.

I hear ya dude you can't even compare the two cars!

I love camaros but way preffer the old to the new, i agree on the tuning but they are both ECU cars so can't fight that one. a V6 caamro probably gets about the same price as a honda although much less power, so i would take the honda for mileage and efficianecy, and whoever said you can't turbocharge an american car? Both are good cars and have positives and negatives, a new Honda vs a new camaro, depends on which models, don't know honda but would love a limited edition 427ci ss camaro! no honda can beat that, it's a throw up, i say camaro just cuz I own one

Ok.. Camaro - 285hp... 3600lbs... 10k

Prelude - 200hp... 2800lbs... 9k

You can also drop a turbo in a Prelude for 1,000 and even the prices. BTW.. how many miles did the Camaro have on it when ur friend bought it, and what condition was it in? Oh yeah, and Im sure the insurance rates are extremely good! NOT :twisted:

What are you talking about? You can't even compare the two cars...there WAY to different.
And this thread is how OLD, let it go boys.

I actually pay 12 dollars a month for my camaro and it's up around 500 hp naturally aspirated, don't know ANY perludes that can keep up with that, except for maybe gas mileage, i get about 10mpg

:lol: okay, I finally get it! Everyone thinks the Prelude will "beat" a Camaro because they are thinking about endurance races and that the Camaro will run out of gas or something! Anyway, I'd still take a Prelude over any Camaro. And again, it's not because I somehow think the Preludes faster.

the honda is a 4 banger fwd piece of junk

that may be your opinion but the Camaro will be in the junk before the prelude

that may be your opinion but the Camaro will be in the junk before the prelude

Well I had a last gen prelude, and it was the biggest piece of crap....
it actaully was lemon-lawed i had so many issues with that piece of junk.

and why would you compare a camaro to a prelude anyway? there not in the same class anyway?????

we've asked the same question, but Ferarrigirl never anwers us!

My friend had lots of problems with his also. :-)

oh really? what was the vin number of this prelude u had?

STFU. Ur just talkin trash about preludes. I drive one EVERY DAY FOR MORE THAN 20 MILES. I have never had any problems with it whatsoever and if you think by some made up experience that you can sum up what a prelude is YOUR WRONG. :twisted: Notice how I dont bring down camaros? I just state the facts. Raith is totally right.. just because he lives in Ohio and works at Mc Donalds doesn't mean anything that is extremely primative that you have to say something like that. I live in Texas and do you see any slang in my writing? Stereotypical b............s Even though the camaro has more power it doesn't matter.. Ok.. lets say a Camaro race an Elise. The camaro would win because it has more power right? More power means much faster right? WRONG. The elise only has 190 hp but its extremely lightweight and quick. Try beating 3.8 second 0-60 time STOCK.

Okay I have to jump in here, did you even read what he wrote? he didn't sat anything bad or good about a Camaro. He said HIS PRELUDE was a piece of junk! Why you are getting all over him makes NO SENSE. He said it was a lemon, and was lemon lawed for gods sake. And the Elise don't do 0-60 in 3.8 either. :roll: So chill out. This thread is how old anyway? You guys have to learn how to just move on.

Dude, he was ripping on preludes.. go back in the discussion.

Ok.. point is.. If it was a Prelude and Camaro RS it would probably be a tie.. because the "Pralude" (learn how to spell dude) is lighter and smaller and they have the same hp. If it was the camaro SS it wouldn't be close race. you cannot race two cars that are so different. oh, and btw, whoever said that they pay $12 a month for their 500hp camaro ss is on crack, because in every other state you would have to pay like 1200 dollars a month.. anyway if anyone wants to find out who would actually win the race... RACE THEM YOURSELF AND FIND OUT! end of story :twisted:

Okay it took me 20 minutes to stop laughing, you think a stock Prelude can beat a stock Camaro SS???? I think you gotta lay off the crack. Stock SS low 13 sec 1/4 mile, stock Prelude high 14 on a good day. I have raced so many Preludes and whipped them its not even funny. Now a V6 Camaro will loose to a Prelude.

I said it would be a good race. And you think its funny? I wont say anything.. but I should.

i agreee with this raith, but how can you compare a V8 with a 2.2 liter 4 cyl? :?

i htink the prelude is ugly sorry, its too boxy, unlike the last generation

Thanks for the laugh I needed it :lol:

A Prelude would have its hand full with a v-6 camaro, and a Camaro SS would destroy a Prelude.

My friend has a Probe GT with some mods runs low 15s same as a Prelude, ive raced him for fun a few times it was ugly I kill him by 15+ car lengths easy. If you think thats a good race then ok.

an SS will never lose to a prelude in stock form NEVER, the camaro is heavy YES, but there hp pushes around 320-340 hp at the wheels, dont forget it rear wheel drive.
prelude on the other hand ****en sucks, u MUST be on crack to think a prelude (of anykind) can beat a camaro ss.
ss can do high 12's on slicks
my bros friends can do low 11's on 125shot nos

& as for an Acura NSX-R, they dont make those yet.
so call it Honda NSX-R

talk to realm II

like i said the prelude would win: during the middle of the race the prelude would lag but then the camaro will run out fo gas becasue of its huge displcement. and in the end the vtec prelude will win

HAHAHAHAHA LOL, LMFAO, ROFL :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

w/ 17k in mods for the prelude; you can get it to 500 HP (like i said; ask realm II)

he put a turbo (don't remember; single or twin), intercooler, and a whole bunch of other stuff that i can't remember, completely reinforced the engine and had the turbo running w/ 20 lbs boost :twisted:

w/ some NOS, he got like 10 secs on the 1/4 mile (i'm still not too sure about this; he might have said high 9's) :twisted:

I doubt that time, more like 12's I bet.
It would be a ***** to hookup a fwd car with 500hp from a stop.

HOLY BULLSH*T!

:lol: man, i never thought I'd see this thread again! I think that we already established that A) the Prelude is not a striaghtline performing car like the Camaro and that B) most people like the Preludes for style, quality, and other reasons, there's no need to be faster if it last logner with less matinence and you happen to really like how it looks and C) this is the stupiest 'comparo' ever :!:

Your right. What would be a good comparison for great straight line performance?

LOL, a 9 second prelude.

LOL, a 9 second prelude.

I bet it was on 18s also lol, maybe they were talking 1/8 mile :wink:

500hp on a the front wheels is USELESS.
your have to uprade jsut about everything, specifically turn it into a drag car to use that 500hp.
camaro all the way, id put a gm 454 or even a 572 have it fully blow fix other stuff and do some wheelies on my camaro...
yee haaw!

LOL, a 9 second prelude.

Besides that

This thread is how many months old now, just leave it alone!
We all know its a dumb comparo....two very different cars.

LOL I own a Camaro and I'm in the UK.

So far its been called a roadster
I was stopped by the police and accused of driving a trans am (which I didn't mind!)

Most people here have no JOLLY IDEA what it is. I had another car I used from day to day but it was just NOTHING on my camaro.

I luv my baby!

OMG. I just have to laugh. #1 any of the preludes engine F22A1,H23A1,H22A1 will NEVER and I mean NEVER have near the peak output of a LT1 or LS1. FURTHERMORE they are a pain in the ass to work on when compared to any camaro but a 4th gen. BTW bone stock Z28's from 98 on have been proven to be underated at 280hp. Most dyno 320rwhp stock. Gonna take a LOT of moneyand time to get a lude anywhere NEAR that. You're talking to the ex owner of a Gen 4 lude who really liked it.

did you get the wrong quote or something? you're talking all about power and I never even dreamed of saying that a Prelude could ever match the Camaro in power. In Handling? Totally! In reliability? Unquestionably. In style? Well, that's a matter of pure opinion. There's alot of aftermarket supposrt for ANYTHING Honda and if you know your cam shafts from your crank shafts, you shouldn't have too much trouble tuning it yourself. and if ya don't goto Skunk2 and they'll get you a 200 whp 170 lb-ft of torque N/A powerplant for like 6 grand. If I'm not mistaken, the Prelude is lighter than a Camaro, so for good performance, you don't need 300 hp and more torque than the stock axle can take. Wait........this is the stupidest comparo ever! Why don't you Moderators just delete it?! Anyone who agrees that this is stupid, pointless, useless, and never going to be resolved, say so so this gets deleted! Please :!: I'm sick of denfending my choice when the cars have such different M.O.'s and I preffer one over the other.

Yes, I agree it's really stupid too. Someone lock it.

its 400 lbs lighter then the camaro. reliability? Thats always the choice of most "ricers" when it comes to arguments. Usually because they have nothing else to defend their statements with. Actually why doesnt somebody look up the recall list for 4th and 5th gen preludes. Its not too shabby itself. BTW I'm sorry but a camaro definitely handles better then a prelude At least the Z28 and SS versions.

This thing is getting old....not to mention comparing a Camaro and Prelude makes ZERO sense.


LOCKED.
