1988 Honda Prelude Si review from North America
"One fun car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have replaced fuel pump and injectors.
Alternator went out 3 weeks after I bought it.
Interior looks great.
General comments?
Even with a semi-worn suspension car handles great.
Love the large legroom because I am very tall.
After replacing several parts with aftermarket performance parts, car is pretty quick.
I have taken it to 125mph and still did not max out 4th gear, let alone fifth gar.
Took it to track after owning for 2 months and ran a 10.7 second eigth mile time.
