Details

This 1986 Honda Prelude Si shows 101,326 miles on the odometer and is a three-owner car. Power is supplied via a 2.0L inline four-cylinder engine backed by a five-speed manual gearbox. This front-wheel drive coupe has modern independent suspension and four-wheel disc brakes. The interior is equipped with cruise control, AC, power windows, and a sunroof. The car is located in Harrisburg, PA.

This Prelude is in good condition considering its age, and the interior and exterior reflect the low mileage of the vehicle. A clean Carfax reveals no accidents in its history, and third-party photos and inspection were performed. The Greek White (NH-82) paint still presents well, although some chips and scratches are present, as well as corrosion on the trim of the drivers side quarter panel. A chip in the windshield is also noted in the inspection report. The cars engine and transmission are in good running condition and the cars exterior was rated at a 3.9 out of 5. The well-cared-for interior was rated a 4.7.

This car is being marketed by a CLASSIC.COM Pro on behalf of its current owner and is located in Harrisburg, PA.

About the model

Honda introduced the Prelude in 1978. This new series of sports cars were two-door coupes loosely based on the Honda Accord. The second generation Honda Prelude was introduced in 1982. Offered with a range of inline-four engines, the Prelude was intended to have a sportier feel and more involved driving characteristics than other Honda models. The Honda Prelude was built across five generations: First Gen (1978-1982), Second Gen (1982-1987), Third Gen (1987-1991), Fourth Gen (1991-1996), and Fifth Gen (1997-2001). Built until 2001, the Honda Prelude was discontinued when Honda introduced the Honda Integra (Acura Integra in North America).
