I bought my E30 325i for a grand with a great running motor and mint interior. It had fucked up body work and was automatic so the 5-speed swap cost about $400 and the body panels were pulled from the junkyard for $200. BC coilovers cost me another grand and my M50 swap plus all turbo components was around $3K because I did some other stuff at the same time like steering rack swap, 5-lug, wheels, etc and I just put that into my M50 budget. After I swap out the headgasket and use ARP studs I'll be at 22lbs and 400whp easily. Good luck finding a good looking car you can spin your rear tires through third with for less than that.
That Prelude has always been my favorite non-NSX Honda, though. Whenever I see one I look at it for a bit longer than other cars (despite it usually being riced out).
