1991 Honda Prelude 4ws Si review from North America
"It turns very well on corners!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Brakes replaced every 50,000 to 60,000 miles as well as the tires.
Timing belt got replaced at 93,000 and at 174,000.
Alternator caught on fire at approximately 102,000.
Engine pulley makes a lot of "squeaking" noise and finally came off.
Mis-aligned driver's side door at 110,000 due to wear and tear.
General comments?
This car's engine do not have that much torque until 3500 plus RPM. Ride is excellent and it corners well on curves.
However the rear seat is very small to fit a grown up.
