1989 Honda Prelude Si review from North America
"Great car, I will never own anything other than Honda again!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
CV boots have been replaced twice in 2 years(commmon with Honda's).
A/C is dead, and costly to repair.
Keep a close eye on the bottom end!!
General comments?
Very reliable; always starts.
It does have steady power, it keeps up or beats almost any other 4 cylinder.
I wish I had the 4WS; a 2.2 Vtech; and the spoiler.
