  • Build them again Honda! - 1996 Honda Prelude
    By -

    Bought the car new in 1996. Have had NO trouble in eight years. Car runs great, handles great could use another 50 horses though to make it perfect.

  • Sweet Car - 1996 Honda Prelude
    By -

    Im 16 years old and to have the 96SI as my first car has been a blast, Stock the car has amazing tourqe for a 4cylinder and it has NO problem going from a redlight to 60MPH. Interior is well done with the electronic dash and in your face tweeters. Back seat is a lil on the small side and to sit in the back requires serious help from the peeps in the front. Dont stop me tho. my cars pushing 7 years old and it hardly shows it, Stock rims on the Ludes could have been a little better tho, the stock Alloys are hideous. but nothing $1700s worth of rims and tires wont fix..... the car is the one of the best looking cars from 96 fo sho.

  • Fun to Drive for short time - 1996 Honda Prelude
    By -

    I personally love Prelude 92-96 Model. It is really fun to drive but not for long drive. The seat is not comfortable. This is a great car to have. Dont miss it

  • One of my favorites - 1996 Honda Prelude
    By -

    I have driven everything from old muscle cars, to new Vettes and even a 96 Viper GTS. I must say that I love this car, overall, more than those. At least for the money. I get 31MPG with the A/C on!! How can you beat that? I have always loved how the car looks too. Its just got an "evil" look when viewed from the front.

  • Love the lude - 1996 Honda Prelude
    By -

    I always loved the styling of the 92-96 preludes, I dont care what edmunds says. I bought mine with about 88,000 miles on it. Over 100,000 now with no problems at all. A fast car with an insanely wicked stock growl. oh and its curb weight is 2,866lbs NOT 3,866 as stated in one of the other reviews. Its not a freakin Camaro for crying out loud.

  • Incredible Car - 1996 Honda Prelude
    By -

    This car has been a custom heaven for me. All I have done is change the front bumper and put on some 17inch aluminum wheels and I get more people asking me what kind of car it is than I did when I had a Camry with $2,000 worth of body work. The layout of the car is basic, so all of my stereo modifications have been simple to install and design

  • What a ride! - 1996 Honda Prelude
    By -

    The fourth generation Prelude V-tec is a beautiful and unique car inside and out. Its styling is timeless and seductive. The interior is like no other car on the road and is really very refreshing. The V-tec engine is ultra-reliable and a blast to drive. It handles superbly for a front wheel drive car and has great brakes, too. Buy this car, if you can actually find one!
