I wrecked my Toyota over Thanksgiving weekend and need a new car. I’m in school and finally just got a new job after not having one for quite some time. I would like to get a 97(nothing older) Honda Prelude with a manual transmission. I don’t have enough money to buy one from a private seller at this time so I will probably have to finance one, though I do have 2 grand for a down payment. I’ve been considering looking for one online and on ebay. Anyone know any good sites or can give me some hints about buying and financing a car on ebay? It isn’t a rare car but I haven’t found one at any local dealer yet. Any advice would be appreciated. ---

I used to see a Prelude with the license plate PLAYRUD. The owner might have been going for a double; he was Asian. ---

What about a prelude to a Honda? I suggest some Strauss, more specifically, “Thus Spach Zarathustra”. Yeah, I’m no help either. ---
