"Fast and Fun"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Mechanically, nothing.

Inside the dash board came a little loose and the seat are worn badly. It is an '85 thought.

General comments?

My favorite car I have ever driven.

Performance-You came put 4 people in it, and still take V8 camaros off the line.

Reliability-Honda's 2.0 Fuel Injected engine. Bulletproof. My sister got it when she started college and sold it when she graduated. In those 4 years nothing went wrong with the car.

Comfort-Great for three (two in front, one in back), though the back seat is a little small for the three seat belts that are back there.

Dealer-Never had to take it to the dealer.

Running cost-Driving it easy you could get around 30 mpg and only have to do the scheduled maintenance(oil change, timing belt).

The Prelude is not particularly reliable. The suspension easily rusts and the interior is quite bland. At higher rpm's engine smoke is a serious problem and servicing may be needed on a regular basis. Also, it is very noisy for a 2.0 litre engine and for it's 196 horsepower is quite slow.
