1988 Honda Prelude 2.0si4ws review from North America
"Best car I've ever had, hands down"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Repaced alternator at 230000 km.
Drivers seat is slightly getting worn.
Replaced exhaust at 190000 km.
Replaced brakes and driver wheel bearing at 230000 km.
Replaced rear upper control arms at 231000km.
General comments?
After I had the car a year, I had to spend about $1500.00 on the car, but the car has been a rock solid, unbreakable great car.
The car is extremely fun to drive and handles better than anything I've ever driven.
It has tons of power and is great on gas.
The four wheel steering system hugs the road.
It is very comfortable to sit in for hours which I do.
