More space in the front, more space in the back, bigger boot, folding rear seats (not ground braking but very usefull), wider track at the front for improved handling, 99+ UKDM lude faster than all other Ludes bar the Type-S & S-SPEC, the only 5th gen model that lets the generation down is the 97-98 UKDM.Froidas wrote:But I don't see any 5th gen advantages. Interior - the same as in 90% cars of that period. Exterior - matter of taste, but it has less exclusivity. Performance - each generation should improve performance, but it's lower than 4th gen

jobby. cat's out the bag bb1boyrob quilter wrote:In 1992 the Prelude was redesigned once more. This new Prelude looked nothing like any of the previous models, it's teardrop profile, the curving design, and oversized taillights it really was a 'love it or hate it' kind of Prelude. It was the first Prelude to be 'designed for women'.
In 1997 the Prelude was redesigned for the last time. As Honda took consumers criticism for the 4th generations styling, Honda decided to bring back the true Prelude styling. So with this last generation, the 5th generation Prelude, Honda designed it to resemble the 3rd generation Prelude.

taken from wikipedophile
Fifth generation (1996–2001)
Fifth generation (BB5-BB9)
Production 11/1996–04/2001
Transmission 4-speed automatic
5-speed manual
Wheelbase 2,586 mm (101.8 in)
Length 4,521 mm (178 in)
Width 1,753 mm (69 in)
Height 1,316 mm (51.8 in)
Curb weight 1,380 kg (3,042 lb)
Introduced on November 7, 1996, the fifth generation retained a FF layout with an independent front suspension and 63/37 weight distribution. Most fifth-generation Honda Preludes came with 16-inch (410 mm) aluminium alloy wheels with all-season 205/50 R16 87V tires. The 2.0i and JDM Si trims came with 195/60 R15 88H, and the JDM Xi came with 14" steel wheels. Unlike the US market Preludes, JDM Preludes came with rear wind screen wipers, except for the Xi. Most Prelude models now featured the 11.1" front brakes that the '96 VTEC model came with, and most Preludes also received a 5-lug hub, as opposed to the 4-lug wheel hub of older models.
The fifth-generation Prelude marked a return to the more square body style of the third generation (1988-1991) which seemed to appeal to the old fuddy duddy farts, in an attempt to curb slumping sales of the fourth-generation body style which was a groundbreaking design that caused a lot of accidents due to people staring at the beauty that had just passed them by. All models and trim packages stayed within the BB-chassis code (BB5-BB9) and housed either an H-series or F-Series engine:
so to sum up 5th gens were improved by fitting 5 stud hubs
