Love my PreludeTrim: 1998 Honda Prelude Base, Owned 1 year Pros: Everything. Cons: The back seat is a little smaller than I would like. Overall review: This is my first car. It has nearly 200000 miles, but still has a strong engine and transmission. I had a choice between a mazda 626 or this. Definitely happy I chose Honda. You can't beat the reliability, gas mileage, or price. Even though it's old, it still looks great and I still get compliments on it! Review ID: #558963 Owner
AmazingTrim: 1998 Honda Prelude Base, Owned 1 year. Pros: Pretty much everything. It has a strong engine, great gas mileage, and definitely isn't a hassle. Cons: The seating out back is tight, could have a little bit more room. Overall review: I've had this for a couple months, as my first car. It has almost 200,000 miles but you would never know it. VERY strong engine, gets you anywhere and has tons of power (Even for a 4 cylinder) and great gas mileage. I love this car! Review ID: #558961 Owner
Simple ReviewTrim: 1998 Honda Prelude Type SH, Owned 1 year Pros: Useable torque (unlike other honda sports cars that require you to down shift at every bump and hill), sporty styling without the here-i-am-officer look, nice quiet car unless you hit v-tec, comfortable but aggressive suspension, light and nimble despite its size and weight, nice solid chasis (add the struts and stuff if you want, but unless you're driving hard all the time, you don't really notice the difference too much). Cons: Dials for vents and such are VERY old fashioned even for a 98' car, my brother has a 98' civic dx and it has more modern switches. For what the car was worth back in the days the interior is (although well put together) somewhat cheap. My own opinion, but the headlights were really what killed the styling of the car for me. For those who drive stick, placing cups in the cup front cup holders may get in your way of driving. Overall review: Great street sports car, not for those who want constant hardcore-ness (like an evo). One major thing to note is that the car revs at 3000 rpm at 60mph in 5th gear, which has its ups and downs. On one hand, you have relatively easy access to power at all times on the freeway, but on the other hand it becomes a bit noisy and saves less gas the on the freeway. Trunk space really is quite bad, but I'm not going to complain since the prelude is a sports coupe (I've seen much worse), but it still is quite tiny. For those who want the wing, this is one of the few cars I've driven where the wing really doesn't get in your way too much the head of the car, although it looks long, actually doesn't hamper driving much. Although the interior may be small for some, it is quite comfortable inside with plenty of seat adjustment for driver and front passenger. Review ID: #533042 Owner
Great sports coupeTrim: 1998 Honda Prelude Base, Owned 1 year Pros: I love the engine and sound. Still pretty nice pickup compared to today's cars. The styling is classic. Very classy without looking like a boy-racer. the ride is much better than cars like the 2003 tiburon and scion tc. seats are very comfy and the view out is great. you don't feel like the car swallows you and have to calculate a parking spot Cons: rear seat is really small for long trips, but then I don't care since I'm always in the driver's seat hehe. trunk is small too. front tires rub fenders easily on spirited driving. brake discs overheat fast in spirited driving too. Overall review: Overall, this is one of the best cars I've driven. good compromise between ride and handling, long lasting good looks, great engine and little maintenance required. a really fun car to drive. Review ID: #528158 Owner
The LudeTrim: 1998 Honda Prelude Base, Owned 3 years Pros: This vehicle picks up pretty quick, add a turbo and your gone. Its fun and easy driving whether the car is manual or automatic. Cons: The back seats are pretty small. Overall review: I'd wish they continue making the Honda Preludes again. From what I've heard they will shortly. Owner
Wow... what a car!Trim: 1998 Honda Prelude Base, Owned 5 years Pros: Very smooth ride, contoured interior, looks sexier than any other car in it's price class.. or out. Runs excellent. Smooth shifting from a manual transmissioin Cons: It's a one-man or one-woman car. The back seat is small. Overall review: Best car I've ever owned. No mechanical breakdowns. I still receive complements on how amazing it looks. Very unique styling Review ID: #355078 Owner
Long live PreludeTrim: 1998 Honda Prelude Type SH, Owned 1 year Pros: Simply Everything.. worry-free engine Cons: Interior design is not bad, couldve been better Overall review: Head-Turner, gets the ladies. You would want to buy it, once you test drive it. Gets you anywhere on time, and would still have plenty of gas mileage remaining. Modern Day Styling, even for a 1998 Model. Excellent Bodywork Review ID: #544047 Owner
Classy car.Trim: 1998 Honda Prelude Base, Owned 1 year Pros: The Prelude is the prettiest car on the road today. It's not a hot-rod but it has it's get up and go when needed (passing), and really a smooth ride. Cons: Granted it's a bit small inside, made for those 5'8" or shorter so I have to lean the seat pretty far back to fit inside. The cup holder is flimsy. On the con side of pro, since the car rides so smooth and handles so well I'll occassionally catch myself doing 80 in a 50 zone pretty quick. Overall review: I really love to drive my Prelude. It's not made for those with alot of heighth and girth and I can't see it being a muscle car per se' but, to me it's just great looking classy looking car with just enough hp and guts to handle easily when the time is needed, and the gas pump won't empty you savings account either. Review ID: #394168 Owner
Very Smooth RideTrim: 1998 Honda Prelude Base, Owned 3 years Pros: The car runs great. No major repairs just regular keep up. However, it would be nice if the car had a little more kick off the line. Although, I was impressed when recently got the car up to 140mph, that was kinda scary. The prelude drives sooo smooth its very easy to speed and not know it Cons: The interior is pretty plane. Cornering too. The car doesn't feel very stable when you taking fast turns Overall review: Overall this is a great car and very fun to drive with the moon roof open and the windows down. Review ID: #382811 Enthusiast
Best car everTrim: 1998 Honda Prelude Type SH Pros: Very Sporty Cons: Not the best looking in less u mod it Overall review: A good car Customer Reviews from Edmunds.com ReviewI bought my Prelude used at about 58K miles. Took her in recently for 105K service and still going strong. While the ride can be stiff, you get excellent road feel. The rougher ride dosent seem to matter on long trips. After driving a rental recently I really missed my precise handling and road hugging Prelude. Great long-term reliability. Fun to commute to work in or tool about town in on a lazy weekend. ReviewPurchased the car just under a month ago, and am still impressed by the overall quality of this 'Lude. The 5th gen is by far better looking than the 4th gen. Most the editor reviews will tell you the interior and exterior are lacking on the 5th gen. I could not disagree more! If nothing else, choose the 5th gen over the 4th because the 5th comes stock with vtec. I am not impressed by gimmicky features, and this car has none of those. It is a sports car. If you want something with plenty of room, get a 4 door accord. the Prelude I own has just over 110,000 miles on it, as far as I know it has not had any major mechanical work done. fun car 1998 Honda Prelude 2dr Coupe ReviewI just bought a '98 base Prelude because I was bored of the family sedan... and this car isn't boring! It's VTEC system with a relative lack of low-end torque is like having 2 cars - the first is the low revving economical commute happy at 2k, and it is equally happy up to 7k scaring the pants off you at how quickly you reached "too fast". It feels heavy to me, as if I shouldn't try throwing it around - but when I do I never get into trouble! There may be better cars than the Prelude, but I doubt many will give you this kind of fun for the same price. Wow 1998 Honda Prelude Type SH 2dr Coupe ReviewYou're in a front wheel drive car... You floor it at the light and make your left turn with your foot to the floor, yet there is no tire squeal and the car just pulls you through the turn with a serious growl, you steer even harder left and the back slowly starts to kick out. Is this car rear wheel drive or did Honda truly fix front wheel drive understeer. The latter. Every front wheel drive car should have ATTS! So much fun to drive! 1998 Honda Prelude 2dr Coupe ReviewI bought it new in 1998 and 8 years later I still love it. Fun to drive on trips and at the track. Very reliable. Have had minimal repair issues, significant considering my 25+ HPDE's. Basic suspension mods really helped the already excellent sport driving performance, and a Quaife LSD has been a good investment. Will hold 0.9+ G's in a flat turn, and can reach 150 mph without much trouble. Impresses the BMW and STI drivers and can hang with much higher rated cars in the turns. Best looking and most elegant styling of Honda ever. Ford and others have recently picked up its more notable styling elements. 1998 Honda Prelude 2dr Coupe ReviewThis car has been the best I have ever owned (of 8). I am thinking of replacing it on the 'before'....other experiences say it should have problems now. it doesn't and hasn't. It has no major competitor IMHO...I guess because Prelude is not built anymore I have to go to Accura RXS-S. The Prelude is quick, the handling is superb, it almost goes sideways, it is a constant pleasure to drive. 1998 Honda Prelude Type SH 2dr Coupe ReviewThe car is fun to drive, and corners well. The car needs more HP (195 HP), but the car still zips along. Overall its a good car! 1998 Honda Prelude Type SH 2dr Coupe ReviewI own a Prelude SH with 105k miles, it just runs amazing, in my school we have started a prelude team, we have in our school alone 5 preludes, each memeber put in alot of effort in finding one. i have to only SH out of the group, and even though i have the most milage i can take any of thier ludes, you just have to take care of them, u cant drive em like a camry, u have to have a compassionate love for the car so you will put in money and time, my weekdays are all school and work, and my weekends are all for my prelude. the ATTS SH is amazing, you will feel the difference people! over all it was my dream car and i finally got it, and people turn thier heads twice when my SH rolls by all stk 1998 Honda Prelude 2dr Coupe ReviewI bought my Prelude with 42K miles. Has been a problem free nice commuter car and has needed very little maintenance over the last 4 years that I have owned it. It still drives and looks great at 125K miles and should keep on going. It is the Honda engineering that makes these cars seem to outlast most others. Good performance while still very reliable few complaints overall while owning this car. 1998 Honda Prelude 2dr Coupe Reviewthis is a fun car to drive.although the price might be little high, but everything is worth it. |

Honda shows facelifted Euro Civic hatch with new Sport variant
Wed, 24 Sep 2014Honda has released the details on its freshened Euro-spec Civic ahead of its debut at the 2014 Paris Motor Show, whose media days are set to open next week. Aside from a fairly pleasant visual upgrade for both the standard Civic as well as the Civic Tourer, Paris will also see the arrival of a new Civic Sport model.
The new Civic wears a sportier front fascia, while the rear end is home to a new, stylish set of LED taillights. Honda has also revised the rear bumper, side skirts and spoiler. In the cabin, a new, Android-powered infotainment system called Honda Connect takes its place in the center stack, providing typical functions like radio, media, navigation and Bluetooth, as well as the ability to browse the Internet. The entire system is confined by a seven-inch display that offers pinch, swipe and tap functions that should be familiar to smartphone owners.
The big news, though, is the new Sport model (shown above). While this isn't a Civic Type R - with its 1.8-liter, 140-horsepower engine, it's not even a decaf Type R - it does deliver some more aggressive looks to the Civic line. There are standard 17-inch wheels, as well as a new, sportier Type R-inspired front fascia and a color-coded rear spoiler. Alongside that 1.8-liter gas engine is a 118-hp diesel mill that displaces 1.6 liters.
2023 Japan Mobility Show Mega Photo Gallery: All the highlights and reveals from Tokyo
Fri, Oct 27 2023The 2023 Japan Mobility Show managed to serve up a surprise heap of exciting and futuristic designs and production reveals. Our staff was on the ground in Tokyo for this year's show, where we captured not just all of the latest automotive trends, but some genuinely weird and fascinating stuff. Browse: Some Delightful Oddities of the 2023 Japan Mobility Show But on to the cars. This year's show featured introductions from Daihatsu, Honda, Lexus, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Subaru, Suzuki and Toyota. Some are weird; some are wild; most are probably destined to change significantly before production or merely fade into the void with the rest of the industry's vaporware, but if even a few of these make it to showrooms, we'll consider it a win.

105-year-old Facebook user gifted new car anonymously
Mon, 26 Aug 2013105-year-old Edythe Kirchmaier is quite a woman. Not only is she California's oldest driver - she just renewed her license this January after passing the test without incident - she has a perfect 86-year driving record without so much as a parking violation. In fact, she's been driving for so long that she learned how on a Ford Model T (how many people alive today have even driven one of those, much less learned on one?). On top of all that, Edythe is a philanthropist; she's been volunteering at Direct Relief, which provides free medications for people in need, for 40 years. You may have even seen her on TV earlier this year spreading the word.
So when Edythe's 1997 minivan began breaking down, an anonymous fan did what any completely selfless person of means would: they gifted her a brand-new 2013 Honda Civic, ensuring that Edythe can continue working for the cause she loves. Check her out on Facebook - she's the social media site's oldest registered user - and scroll down to the press release for more on this heartwarming story.
