is the 944 a turbo? Either way probably not the 80s 944 is are quick.

no way

92-96 Prelude Base vs. 944 Base:
Prelude would win.

92-96 Prelude Si vs. 944 S2:
944 S2 would win.

94-96 Prelude vtec vs. 944 S2:
Prelude would win.

94-01 Prelude Vtec vs. 944 Turbo:
944 Turbo would win.

A stock honda will NEVER beat a Porsche period.

The Porsche of course! The pos prelude can not even pull away from a suburban. lol.

It might win in a mpg test though.

This is going to depend on which Prelude (since it is been in production even before the 944).

A 1984 944 has it is good points, but power & ability to run a drag race is not among them. This is a good handling momemtum car, & a drag race is probably one of the things it will be worst at doing.

It will do 0-60mph in about 8 seconds & cover the quarter mile in about 16 seconds. maybe a little less given ideal conditions. However that was new, unless the car has had a recent engine rebuild, it is likely to be a little off. So, as far as a drag race, the question becomes, what model Preludes can cover a quarter mile quicker than 16 seconds?

According to published results l could find, it looks like any model Prelude from the early 1990s or later would be faster in a drag race. Anything from the 80s though will be behind the 944 (later model 944s like the S2 or any of the 951s would come out much much better).
