I can't believe how much progress Honda has made in the 10 years the Prelude came out. Its easier to drive, and you get so much more features/performance for your dollar (compared to MSRP of $26,xxx on a new SH in 1997).

You certainly do get more features for the dollar now, but Honda, like Toyota, has downscaled their materials. Interior plastics are lower quality, and without a doubt, the sheetmetal and paint are thinner.
