Love the S2000 in white. As for the GV, it reminds me of a black cat in a dark room at midnight.  ROFL

Great collection you've got there.  I like how the racing seats in your old prelude match the paint colour.  Do they say sparco?

I'm a huge white S2K fan.  Add the red interior and a red top, I'm all over it.

Wow!  Nice collection there!  That white one looks so much nicer than that yellow one with stock wheels that I've seen here around the forum.   Lips Sealed   Grin

I like the white too, not crazy about the blue interior or his non-stock wheels Wink

Nice cars!  Grin

ap1, any comments on the Prelude Type SH's ATTS ( the Active Torque Transfer System)? Do you notice when it works?

The ATTS was an amazing gadget.

When I used to autocross this car, you could turn the wheel, mash the throttle, and the car would just go where you point it.  No FWD push whatsoever.  This car carved the road like crazy.  It only works under throttle though, so don't expect it to work if you coast thru a corner.

Ah the Prelude is one of my most favourite Hondas. Looked great and so does the S2000. Thanks for sharing!

Mean looking machine! I'd love to hear your thoughts on driving dynamics compared to the S2K. Thanks for the pics, looks great!
