1987 Honda Prelude Si review from North America
"Fun that doesn't cost a ton."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The alternator went out at around 170,000 miles. This was a $200.00 fix.
The original stock AM-FM stereo cassette stopped working at 190,000 miles.
During the course of my one year ownership, I had to replace a few miscellaneous electrical fuses here and there. In a car equipped with power everything, this can be expected.
General comments?
My 1987 Honda Prelude Si was the funnest car that I've ever owned, and I've had six cars!
When I bought my Si, it was already thirteen years old, with 161,000 miles on it, and I was surprised at the performance, economy, dependability, and first-rate craftsmanship of the car.
