Overview & Reviews
Prelude gets another five horsepower, bringing it up to 200 horsepower with the manual transmission and 195 horsepower with the automatic. A remote keyless entry system is added, as is an air filtration system, mesh-style grille and new interior color choices.
- Lots of power, distinctive styling, and room for four.
- Limited headroom, and the Accord has a more attractive interior.

prelude sh forever - 1999 Honda Prelude
By greatludeSH - January 23 - 10:33 amIve been driving prelude SH a year now and everyday always put a smile on my face. I guess i dont need a face lift anymore, naturally it lift everytime i drive it, lol. I am at my 50s and this machine keeps me young. At 259,000 mileages theres no major work done into it except for regular maintenance of course. I drive it hard and revving high once in a while and this machine doesnt frustrate you. It goes on and on and on... the sexy body, the beauty of reliability, the perfection of stick shift is worth every penny. Bought it 6 grand but its worth it. No headache. If u find one, grab it. Youll love it the rest of your life, but dont trade your wife though,lol. Honda bring it back...

Honda Prelude - 1999 Honda Prelude
By anthony - June 1 - 8:01 pmBought this car brand new right of the boat, they actually just unloaded it on the lot, bought it with 3 miles on it, the 3 miles I put on the car test driving it. It is too bad Honda cannot built a decent electric car that looks like this. They need to pay more attention to Tesla motors and get away from the electric cars that look like boxes with wheels on them

Prelude SH - saved my life - 1999 Honda Prelude
By Wedge - May 9 - 1:38 pmRecently, I was clipped from the passenger side behind by a tractor trailer cab which was spinning in a hydroplane. This was in a rainstorm at freeway speeds. I did 2 ½ 360 clockwise spins before coming to a stop. The prelude SH suspension and ATTS saved my life as I steered into the spin and avoided a 2nd clip by the counter spinning truck cab. So here is where the 80% power transfer to auto steer the outside front wheel occurs. Most of the time one hardly notices the SH, but I did about 3 Gs and maintained steering with my front wheels while the rear spun about. Worth all the prior gear shifts during slow commuter traffic.

Classic Sport - 1999 Honda Prelude
By Gock - March 27 - 11:59 amThis car is excellent for those looking for something fun. Although the interior is bland and the car is a portly weight, its mostly a silent killer. A little heavy to take 90 degree turns with ease, but if you take it on a curvy backroad, you see its true power. Take it on a sharp curve at speeds even a WRX would be scared of and the Prelude laughs at the curve and eats it for breakfast. Interstate driving is like a cakewalk for this car, easily passing any car with a quick downshift or two. Stop- and-go driving is a little boggy but still spirited. Also very quiet! The added reliability and high-quality materials make this car a smart buy for anyone wanting something fun!

Great car for everything - 1999 Honda Prelude
By Brian - November 29 - 10:39 pmThough my Prelude was purchased as a daily driver, I later began driving it on local road courses and learned what the car was really about. Handling, speed, and comfort. The car has held up very well and still puts a smile on my face every time I drive it! I actually bought an old Accord so I wouldnt have to drive the Prelude in the winter in effort to preserve the its current condition.

Great Car - 1999 Honda Prelude
By Jesse - October 31 - 6:40 pmThis has been a fun car to drive. It handles better than any car I have ever driven and it can move pretty quick for a 2.2 L engine.

bring back this car man!!!!!!!!!! - 1999 Honda Prelude
By john - October 15 - 9:41 pmalways wanted one, got a fictus green ss auto, and although a manual would have been a first choice i am still impressed with the auto, leather seats were a nice perk, the vtec is an animal and i would not trade her in for anything else. a sexy car to look at and to drive. the prelude hates to drive under sixty mph and you can hear it under the hood. once on the highway shes happy. domestic cars look out!

Quality Honda - 1999 Honda Prelude
By Alex - March 11 - 4:54 pmThis vehicle offers enough power to put a Mercedes Kompressor to shame. Styling is wonderful, and the interior has greatly improved.

99 Prelude - 1999 Honda Prelude
By P TITTY - July 19 - 4:06 amThe prelude by Honda is a legend and I hope Honda decides to start production again soon. The 99 models saw a 5 HP increase to make it 200 HP(Base model seems fasteR than the SH MODEL), which is more than the type r integra stock. Exterior styling still turnsheads todaY and the interior is not bad. Under the hood we see one of the biggest stock honda 4 cylinder motors at 2.2 liters and the added bonus of VTECH MAKES THIS BABY SCREAM AFTER 5500 RPM. The one thing I have not like about hondas as I have previously owned a 00 civic si and 95 GSR integra is the clutches in the cars stock are not very heavy duty especially during racing. Overall the lude is the best sporty honda out there
