Either could be fine. I've owned 3 Hondas and 3 Acuras. They are reliable to 200,000 mi if taken care of. The Prelude is based on the Accord chassis, while the Integra is based on the Civic chassis. So the Integra will likely get better gas mileage, and be a little more nimble, but the Prelude will be a little more solid, heavier car. Boht handle really well, but the handling edge goes ot the Prelude. Good Luck.
