    i now own my first honda prelude,all i can say about the car is,wow he he he,its an amazing car to look at and drive,ive got the jap inport version,for a car of its age to look in my opinion better than most of the newer car is great,it still turns head everywhere i go,and knowing i have nearly 200 bhp to play nice with is fantastic.its a joy to see cars behind me vanish from stand still,i will defo be getting another when the sad days of the scrap yards come,only problem i have with it is the b ...

    want a cheap relatively fast sports coupe that handles well looks good and sounds awesome then the Honda Prelude 2.2i VTEC is definitely the car to have. solid h22 engine very reliable used in 5th gens too and accord type rs and prelude type s 0-62 in 7.1 secs high revving engine ,strong power after 5krpm ,great handling with 4ws ,although good without ,183 bhp at the fly standard ,fully electric ,high spec ,cheap lol ,remember this is a 4 cylinder n/a car

    I bought my Honda Prelude 2.2i VTEC a few years ago with the idea that it would make a good 'Rally Car' for non forest single venue tarmac rallies. I stripped out the interior, fitted a cage and all the required safety items, fitted a high flow air filter and a decent exhaust manifold and left everything else totally standard. In November 2008 did my first rally in it. There were 80 starters including some very exotic cars and we finished the 8 rough stages in 30th place overall on an event that ...

    It has some unexpected surprises. Seat on driver's side has inflating cushion, and mm precision back rest. The rear speakers are at the perfect angle for sound, the small cabin enables great audio quality, and compared to modern cars, its easy to install ICE.

    I have owned and driven many cars but few put a smile on my face in the way a 4th generation Honda Prelude does. I have just sold my BB4 2.2 VTEC import as two adults, three kids and 1 large dog do not fit! But I was gutted to see it go. Mine was highly customised with paint job, aftermarket alloys, lowered, custom exhaust etc etc etc, but you don't need all that to enjoy the wonderful lines of the car, the superb performance, the great sound, the tight handling. You only need around £180 ...

    I love my prelude, I've had it for 2 years and its never let me down and it looks great (much better than a Toyota Celica and way cooler than some naff hot hatch). With neally 200bhp on tap its still as quick as most modern compotition. Just buy one you won't be sorry!

    An awesome, awesome car. Back in 2000 a friend of mine showed me his imported Prelude. Never seeing one before, I took one look at the EL back-lit dashboard....I was in love On my second prelude now, a BB4 lightweight-edition, no ABS/TCS/4WS/sunroof/cruise. A lot of people say the 4wheel-steering version is better but thats silly, the 4wd makes the lude too twitchy. Remove it. All I can say is if you buy a prelude you'll not be disappointed! Everytime I get in my lude all I can do is smile; the ...

    My Honda Prelude which my dad gave me is great, even though its a k reg it still runs and looks great, even being an automatic, it still as a lot of power off the mark. Top car, hate driving the family car (Renault Scenic) after driving my beast of a prelude.

    I have always wanted one of these since they came out. I was going to buy one from up north but the guy was giving me the run around & I got a phone call about this one, £600! When I was driving it home I had the biggest smile ever. It's a great looking car although my red paintwork is turning a little pink! I got an auto!! yeah I know but the acceleration is still great especially if driven in sports mode. Although it is an auto it will still leave a VW Golf GTi at the lights! I do not co ...

    I do love this car however the power is there when you need it and it will beat most cars on the road - when you hit 5000 revs you really feel the fabulous vtec technology. It sounds quality, looks slick and drives great. If you are serious about getting a sports car then this car is ideal before you move on to the skyline level cars or better. Don't expect to beat an m3 at the lights but I beat an Audi a3 1.8 turbo which was great (- I do not condone racing... this was a bit of fun at ...

    I have a 2.2 Honda Prelude Si VTEC from Japan, comes with 197 horses as standard. If you're going to buy this car to rag around, you're gonna need uprated brakes and clutch. I'm on my 3rd clutch and 3rd set of front discs, aftermarket parts for this car have been terrible so far... Don't let this put you off, the VTEC is immense and can take any amount of abuse, and the handling is taught and precise, I'm on the Isle of Man with the TT Course so I know. Get one. Now.
