Preceia comes with the V6 engine and better seats I think inside, plus a few other cosmetics like spoiler etc.

precida has the v6. It's the 'fast' model.
The 4banger is ungodly slow imo.

the v6 also slow as hell... its only a 1.8L v6... less then 130hp...
the money shot is when you swap in an mx6 engine into the precidia... 2.5L v6 i'm not sure how much power they make though but its the same as putting an h22 into a civic

ya it is comparable to like my car... Si hatch... but everyone thinks that its V6 is a power house... so many people have come up to me saying that.... but in reality they only make like 128hp.. just more rotating parts to screw up
and they wont handle anything like a civic

it would be a killer car to mod down the road though 
it is kinda a chick car though.... but you could get an mx6 engine in for cheaper then an h22 in a civic

My friend has a precidia with the mx6 v6. Matt has seen it.
He's going back to all stock so it'll be a sleeper.
He's killed many a cars and it's pretty quick too. I'll have 1/4 mile times after tomorrow night.
All it a chicks are all you want, it'll still kill an SiR, GS-R, Prelude, etc.
