First, congrats! Beautiful car!

Second, you could take a mixture of back roads and highway back, but yes, I agree you should fly down and drive the car back for sure.

Third... SWEET Prelude! What did you do with it? The Gen 4 prelude was always a car I liked, but when the Gen 5 came out I was a senior in HS and I lusted after that car for years. I always wanted a white one on Volks too, so your is like my dream car from 16 years ago, lol.

Welcome to the forum!

Sweet Prelude! CLEAN!

If the back roads are fun...go get a GoPro or else BAN!

Sweet! It'll make for a nice trip to bring the car back. Good bonding experience right when you get the car. As others mentioned, if you're taking it home, definitely consider a clear bra. You don't want rock chips or anything scratching it so soon. I've seen it installed on each of the F colors,and none are that noticeable, even if it's half of the hood.

Enjoy the F!

Looks good. Congrat on the pickup. Remember to tape it up good to prevent rock chips.

Thank you so much for the inputs.
The prelude is sold to a good friend for dirt cheap.
Yeah, I will take pics along the way home. Hopefully things will go smooth.
