Default SH prelude?

I am looking in to buying a beater 97 prelude...riced out pretty bad. So i am not 100% sure if it really is an SH or just has a badge stuck to it. Is there anyone that can put out what clues i should look for?
Its an auto, has power options, some odd honda wheels not factory.
Thanks!

btw, SH is sports handling.. so when your turn the front tires with the steering wheel the rear tires turn inversely to the front. just food for thought if you didnt know what it stood for.

as for identifications on authenticity.. check the vin?
the sh doesnt have 4ws . The torque/power is transfered to the tire needed when cornering the back wheels don't move at all like the older 4ws preludes

im not 100% sure but i dont think sh's came in auto.

DONT BY AN AUTO 5th GEN. so some research. that transmission is shit.

read.

and you'll be able to tell by the oil filter location, and if the ATTS system is under the car or not.

when u turn the key
see if the ATTS light comes on, if it does its an SH
or check the rear speaker deck to see if there is a Third brake light or not, if not then its an SH
or check the door panel, if theres a little light that turns on when the door opens then its an SH
just little things that tells u that its an SH
