My buddy in school drove a prelude with about 250k on it. 5 speed manual.
Thing drove great. Never needed anything. He drove it through residency and
fellowship, at which point his wife convinced him to buy a used, new style
volvo wagon. That was a big step down in just about every department except
number of doors.

Room for two adults and two little kids IIRC. 
Not much distance between the back of the doors and the back window. 
Ah, here's a very good pic, and in the color of the one I almost bought around 
1990.
https://www.favcars.com/wallpapers-honda-prelude-1978-83-256735.htm

The 1991 Si with variable valve timing and rear wheel steering looked like this.
Big change in 13 years since 1978.

Prelude was always a 2+2, wasn't it?
Started out as an Accord coupe and moved upward from there. 
By 1990ish you could get one with a form of four wheel steering. 

CRX and Del Sol were 2 seaters, and more recently S2000.

Re: [MBZ] Maybe I should buy this

2019-12-25 Thread Dan Penoff via Mercedes
Yeah, he was a hard core U.S. iron guy after having worked for GM for many 
years. That being said, he did order a 450SL in the early 70s, just before the 
gas crisis occurred. I’ve told that story before, but to recap, he ordered the 
car, it came in a few months later when the you know what had really hit the 
fan with Arab embargo on oil, and he had to back out of the deal as many of his 
customers would have taken offense at him driving a foreign car. Closest I ever 
saw the man to crying. Made me realize that this must have been one special car 
and probably unknowingly affected my interest in Mercedes.

The last American iron he owned was a Plymouth Horizon TC3. Had an aftermarket 
pop-up style sunroof installed in it that “didn’t leak!” Dark blue with a 
matching interior. He loved that car, as it was his first front wheel drive car 
and the handling was something he had never experienced. He used to like to 
bury the front end in a snowdrift and then show everyone how easily it could 
extract itself.

I think that was the impetus for him to buy the Honda Prelude. He loved the 
front wheel drive aspect and I don’t think there were many domestic front wheel 
drive offerings at that time that were two seaters and relatively upscale cars. 
Not sure - not a subject we covered before he passed.
