1988 Honda Prelude Si review from North America
"All around great car - Chicks dig it!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
New front rotors - $175.
Power steering pressure hose - $500 using an after-market part.
Had water in a taillight lens - drilled holes in the bottom to drain.
Air conditioning is empty.
Starting to rust away.
General comments?
This car handles like a dream - 4WS rocks!
Quick enough, but could always be faster.
Great styling - interior and exterior.
Does everything very well especially parking. My next car must have 4WS (240SX maybe?)
Good on gas.
