1998 Honda Prelude Base review from North America
"A sports car with Honda reliability"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Absolutely nothing! I have owned the car for nearly three years and have merely had the routine Honda maintenance and 3 month oil changes. That's it!
General comments?
Limited production numbers ultimately killed this car, but that makes it - in my book - a very special and unique car. It's a 'head-turner' that isn't as 'common' or 'dime-a-dozen' as the Chevy Camero or other pony cars.
Fast, sporty, sexy, a wonderful car.
