Default 01 Prelude

Hey all,

I am new to this forum so I thought I would get right to the point. I am in the market for a new car and was considering a Honda Prelude. I have found a decent one where I live and wanted your opinions on it. It is a 2001 prelude (non SH) with 65k miles. The dealer is asking $16900 for the car. I told them that they were asking too much for the vehicle. What would be a good price for the car with that amount of miles on it? They said they would work with me.
Next question, I am considering upgrading the engine and suspension. What would be some of the first things I should do to a car like that? Forced induction? Gas shocks? Please give me your input. Thanks for reading....

Too much money. Got to go, but others will respond with similar answers I think. Look for classifieds, not dealers. Good day!

$16,900 is the exact KBB price for the car.

16,900 may be the KBB price for it but you can still find one for less money.
