yes they all do.. the immobilizer was put into production in the mid 97's and has been in all preludes since.

i dont know the exact date.. but i did quiet a bit of research on this before. and i found out that there are 5th gens w/ out the immobilizer, but they are the very first 97s.. there werent very many at alll.. i think trying to find one.. would be impossible...

Ah, now I see. Please disregard my reply to the other topic you started. As you learned, you cannot use the Red learning key to start the car. You now need to get your car towed to a Honda dealer. A Honda dealer has to recode your Immobilzer system. Make sure to take the Red key with you. The dealer needs that key to recode your car.
