1993 Honda Prelude Si review from North America
"Nice looking car with average performance"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The radiator and 4 coolant hoses had to be replaced shortly after purchase.
The air conditioner shuts off occasionally and there is a general electrical problem with the heating/cooling controls; the lights don't always work and it has problems switching air direction (ie. changing from defrost to floor, etc.)
No serious repairs have been required and still runs well for its age.
General comments?
I love the exterior and interior style of the car. While it's not very fast at 160HP it handles very well.
