Is there a USDM equivalent of the Prelude that you mentioned?? I know that you guys still have the Integra, but that is the Acura RSX here.

Yeah in the US the Prelude stopped in 2001. I think the s2000 kind of took over the Honda Performance car here.
Over here we have Acuras too. But over there Acura cars are Hondas. They stopped making the Acura Legend in 1995.

Practical Classics is probably my favorite car magazine ever. I love the issue where they satire Jeremy Clarkson with the wig and all. I can find it at the larger bookstores here.

Clarkson needs a good satire every now and then.

... In UK there is an Integra which is Accord coupe-ish, does that ring any bells ? How about Legend ?
The picture on the top banner of this site must be the UK/Europe/Japan Accord. It looks like the USA Acura TSX except for the badges.

The Integra was labeled as an Acura Integra thru it's 3rd generation. The latest one is called the Acura RSX but outside of north america it continues to becalled the Integra.

The Legend was the big Acura sedan, which turned into just letter/number names. Is that one still called the Legend over there?

This whole business of renaming the same car for different parts of the world is nothing new, but it IS a bit confusing.

Top Gear is one of the best shows on TV in my opinion. I love it when they do the challenges. Especially the one where they tested the "people carriers."- The one where they had to see if they could get away from the Stig driving a cop car and they were driving the vans. Hammond tried to take a sharp turn and flipped his on its side. I laughed sooooo hard!
