1984 Honda Prelude review from North America
"A really good car for two hundred dollars!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The driver seat has some big rips in it.
The fuel pump didn't work when I bought the car.
General comments?
This car is quite peppy.
It doesn't have much power, but it drives well for a 20 year old car.
It's got quite a bit of room in it for a good sound system. (sub woofers, amps)
It has awesome leg room.
Really good on gas for such an old car.
I only paid 200 dollars for mine and I'm quite happy with that.
I'm only sixteen years old and I think it's a good first car for anyone.
Prelude are really fun to drive because they don't make a big whole in your wallet and it gives your legs just as good of a work out as going for a walk. (Clutching, and accelerating)
Overall it's a good car.
