Such cutting words Ratty.

I always liked the 3rd gen, but after seeing what can be achieved with a 2nd gen the 3rd's now sat in the 4th row for me (4th 2nd 5th 3rd 1st).

Those are the words of someone who has never experienced mechanical 4WS :lol:

I was going more by looks and styling ;-)

But it's true, still to this day I have never even sat inside a car with 4WS :roll:

Yes cutting words. I should keep opinions to myself :oops:

I do still to this day think if you put all handling mods onto a Type S, BB4 (LSD) and a 3rd gen 4WS Prelude with the H22 and LSD the 3rd gen will run rings round the 4th and 5th gen.
The driving experience of the 3rd Gen dominates everything at all speeds.
I love the 3rd Gen dearly but cant bring myself to get another or sell the Type S.
