Being introduced in Japan in 1978, the Prelude shared the same drivetrain as the Accord, the Prelude has always been a two door, front wheel drive coupe. It had the CVCC Advanced Stratified Charge, In-line 4 cylinder SOHC engine, With 72hp @ 4500rpm and 4 wheel independent struts. Then in 1994, the Honda Prelude had a VTEC with 190hp @ 6800rpm.

One of the nicest cars made by Honda. Dependable and moderatly fast. Too bad they stopped making them. But the S-2000 is a nice sub.

A 2 door sports coupe by Honda. The Prelude has proven itself to be a vehicle with long lasting appeal, 4th and 5th generation Preludes are hugely popular with people wanting an easily customizable car with real potential for performance.
Superb handling across the range was a great feature of these cars. Using advanced technologies, every generation of Prelude featured handling that was superior to most rivals.
The Super Handeling system featured in the 5th gen is now used in the new Honda Legend, but utilzes all four wheels (SH-AWD) instead of the front two. The scream of a prelude hitting VTEC sends a shiver down your spine.

Over the years it was used to introduce such technolgies as:
*CVCC low emission engine (1st Gen)
*4 wheel stearing 4WS (3rd Gen)
*Super Handleing torque managment system (5th Gen)

Introduction, to introduce.

The car that ats aka ather has loved since early teens. Ats has also bought the prelude and drives it daily. A pretty nice and FAST car.

A prelude is the beginning of a book or movie where a character is hastily given a name and killed off for ominous effect.

AKA Honda PooLude.

Done up by the rice boys with crystal tail lights, shiny chrome wheels and large GT wing spoilers to create huge amounts of downforce. Oh wait... downforce doesnt matter unless you hit high speeds and we all know the words "high speeds" and "honda" are not usually found in the same sentence.
