1997 Honda Prelude Base review from North America
"This car is great"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The first thing to go on my prelude was a couple of the hoses under the hood. Along with that was the alternator.
Then I had a couple of oil changes and new brakes.
Then just a week ago, the Anti-Lock Brakes (ABS) went and its gonna cost about $600.
General comments?
The Prelude handles great and the manual transmission is still great.
Except for the hoses going like every month the car is OK.
