So are these preludes just as strong and reliable as the rest of the honda's? I've always assumed so, and doesn't seem like people on these forums have many problems with their preludes. If there is anything to worry about, what is it? Or is a 5th gen prelude just as reliable as a civic or an accord?

Oh, and I know, don't buy automatic!!!! (everyone here says that!)

haven't had a problem with mine yet, 58,000 miles trouble free.

 

Got some issues but those were the previous owner faults.

Basicaly if you have an oil and coolant you're good to go

 

i bought mine with over 75k miles and have had no problems, even with plenty of hard driving. just keep an eye on the oil and an ear out for the auto-tensioner, and you're good to go

 

just do the prevenitive maintenance and you shouldn't have any problems. As long as its in good condition when you buy it.

 

Mine has 207,000 miles, 50k on JDM b20a, runs like a champ, ready to be boosted.

 

a honda is a honda

bought mine used with 53k on it - no probs yet - just tune when you get it

 

cool thanks guys

i've said it before these forums are the best. I posted this one hour ago and I came back to 8 replies.

 

154k on 92 si. no mods at all, stock. no problems, except for the desire to drive it fast ALL the time. 96 (generous of him) in a 70 last monday. 1st speeding ticket ever in 7 years. hopefully no more (knocks on wood).

 

my first one i bought with 117k ran it till 225k bought another one and sold my first one to my cousin who is still driving it....never had a single problem with the first one exceppt a leaking seal...which with that much life was eventually goin to happen. My new one had some problems cause of the previous owner...but they have been fixed since.
