1995 Honda Prelude Si review from North America

"Nice looking small sports car with the Honda name and reputation"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

I have had this car for almost a year and a half. Nothing really has gone wrong with it except the top hose for the radiator burst about 5 months ago, but this was easily replaced and cheap. I've recently had a burning smell coming from under the hood. It isn't too serious and I have been told it is a leak of some kind. I will be getting that checked out next week. Other than that, nothing has gone wrong with the car since I got it. The paint on the spoiler has been chipping pretty bad, but that's not the car's fault.

I had a tune up a few months ago and all belts were replaced.

The car vibrates when idle, but not when in park. This isn't too big a deal to me though.

Gas gage is off. It shows the tank to be full for a few days without going down, but then it could go down 2 bars the very next day.

Sunroof rattles, but you hardly notice it when listening to music.

General comments?

This car is much faster than the '94 Civic I had before this. Outside of the car keeps up with looks of cars today even though it is 12 years old. I love the interior dash and its unique look.

Front seats are very comfortable, the back seats though are not intended for people to sit. I keep my dog back there on car rides.

Trunk size is very adequate for a car of this size. I removed the 5 disc Alpine CD changer it came with. I replaced the sound system, which was really bad, with my own Pioneer mp3/cd deck with all new speakers. The original speakers were blown.

Having only one cup holder is a problem sometimes.

Glove compartment can only fit the owner's manual and nothing else.
