Hi, everybody. We're back. It's Tuesday again. And we have, well, we just, we've lumped it all into news. It's not even a topic Tuesday. We went to the LA Auto Show. And while we're at the auto show, other news was happening. Other reveals were happening elsewhere in the world. Yeah. It's like concepts. It's concepts. It's production. It's all in one big mixing bowl of this huge thing. New cars. Totally. New news. Cars, here's the thing. Cars we hope are coming. Cars we think are coming. Cars that are actually here. Cars that are supposed to be coming, but we're not sure if they are anymore. There's so much to talk about here. We're just going to dive in with that. We do have two really cool car debates. We've got some car conclusions. You guys have absolutely buried us in questions, which is wonderful. Yeah, thank you for that. So we should just dive right into a new. Should we start with the prelude? Yeah, we should. Thank you to Honda for flying us to the L.A. Auto Show for a press reveal of something totally different. We cannot talk about at this point, but also to see the prelude

0:54.2

and go to the auto show, go to photos of the new prelude that we saw.

0:58.9

First time to see it actually in person, which was very interesting to walk around the actual

1:02.8

production version and to see it in person.

1:05.0

Well, I said to you that I found some creases and some character lines that I had not seen

1:09.4

in photos and are still not visible in these photos.

1:11.8

The blue is excellent, but the lighting and the color actually kind of hide some of the excellent creases on this car.

1:17.9

There's one on the rear here that you might be able to see pointing that out just under the belt line here that makes a nice S reflection that makes that rear fender swell

1:30.0

out a little bit. It doesn't make it look like a rear wheel drive car, but it makes it have a

1:33.9

presence in the rear. It doesn't just look like, you know, a front wheel drive, a two-door front

1:39.4

wheel drive Civic. It's got swells in both the wheel wells more than you think in photos.

1:44.7

When you actually look at it from the direct front or direct back, it has that, I mean, not this much, but it has that kind of traditional Coke bottle shape that was really cool that was most exaggerated in like the C3 Corvette.

1:53.9

It has that little bit of fender swells front and rear that you don't expect on a car like this that is there when it's there in person.

1:59.4

I thought in person it is better. It looks good. It really is. Some nice details. It has that dart kind of concept

2:06.6

look to it where, you know, the front end of a dart is the heaviest part. So you're throwing

2:12.1

the dart and that is where the weight and direction of the car is. So it actually kind of harkens back

2:17.3

to that for me. Just kind of pulls that concept out for me. But the biggest thing that we need to discuss is the price has now been announced for the prelude. And it is almost $2,000 less than the 2001 model when adjusted for inflation. How about that spin, huh?

2:34.8

Except.

2:36.6

So wait, wait, wait, wait.

2:39.2

So while we're following this, we'll keep pulling that thread.

2:43.8

The 2001 Honda prelude was $23,600.

2:44.6

Right.
