Amazing what can be done when you get really creative with a Prelude.

This car is fully race pre-pared. The engine has been turned and mated to a new tranny to enable rear-wheel drive, complete with a dog-box. Sweet.

Wow. That's sweet indeed!

Do you have any specs on the car?

Sadly no. But it's fun to look at.

According to this article dated March 2009, it's actually for sale for 20,000 British pounds. That's somewhere around $38,000 US.

They're claiming brake horse power at 480...... so that's not bad.

It has air jacks - OMG ! I'd buy it just for that feature! I've always wanted 4wheel air jacks -- just hit that button, pull my race wheels, swap them for my cruise wheels and hit the road!
