    Finally a 3rd Gen Prelude!!
    These hold a special place in my heart bc my father had a 3rd Gen Prelude Si, that he loved and had when my parents were dating.
    He tells me stories of all the fun times he had in it and he said if he had it he would've given to me when I was old enough to drive.
    So one day I definitely need to own one of these 😍

      Awesome Comet Bro this is crazy! Our relationship between this car and our fathers is pretty similar! My dad also had a 3rd gen Prelude Si and loved it to death. He had it when my parents met and were also dating. My dad said he would’ve given it to me as my first car as well. Sadly he was rear ended and totaled his prelude in 2003, a couple years after i was born.

    This generation of Prelude handled better than any car I've ever driven in my life.
    I've owned 4 different Preludes from 89 to 91 and I had one that was the same color/model
    as the one you're reviewing in this video. I had it slammed on skunk 2 coil overs and I could
    take on ramps that suggested 25MPH at 90 MPH and it would hug the pavement and never
    even start to slide out whatsoever. It was an absolute blast to drive and that was even with
    the SI motor and NOT having a turbo and all the upgrades this one you're reviewing has.
    I still have a 90 Civic EF Hatchback Si sitting out in my garage that's in excellent shape.
    I got it from my best friends family after he unfortunately took his life a few years ago and I
    want to swap a K20 into it but don't have that kind of money laying around. I hope that one day
    I'll be able to get the swap though in his memory. He always wanted a white EF hatch with a
    K20 swap so I have to make it happen some day! Til then I have it sitting in the garage covered
    and kept the same way he had it when he was alive.

    My first car in 2001 was a 97 5th gen and I loved it. Another negative point to the 5th gen was the price. My father paid like 15k back in 2001 for that car which is $22k in today’s money for a used Honda with 32k miles on it. They were going for $25k new back in 97 which is pretty crazy when you think about it. $25k in 1997 is a $40k car in today’s market. She was def a head turner

I've asked him for advice once or twice before on my build. If you're interested, I got a short video of my build running for the first time on my channel. Congrats Jamie, you earned it.

    Bro that Prelude brings back memories of Highschool for me!
    It is spot on the exact same Prelude I had back in 2001 fresh out of Highschool!
    I've always loved the 89-1991 Preludes and owned 4 different Preludes.
    The one I had that was the exact same color of this one was a 1989 Prelude Si.
    To this day I still have a 90 Civic Hatch EF Si that's in fantastic shape. I keep it
    in the garage and my daily is a Audi S4.

      @miatasforever I mean, in the newest gen of the mx5 they did a pretty good job. The return of the civic type r turned out good. Despite the hate, both the NSX and supra are statistically pretty nice. So I dont see why the prelude would be some kind of guaranteed failure

    • @adamcroteau8711
      @adamcroteau8711 5 років тому +1

      Corey Stuber the mx5 is the outlier, they managed to make everyone happy by staying true to what made the last car great. The new civic type r, supra, and nsx are good, but in different ways than their old namesakes. The new prelude could end up being a good car, but not be like the old (I.E. it would be reliable and comfy but be heavy, auto only, not very rev-happy, hybrid, and computerized)

    I really like them. I think the 3g are the nicest ones with their really really low hood-lines. The 4 & 5gen are sadly really riced out most of the time, when you see them. I'm 17 and I own a 2gen with a nice bodykit myself, bc I couldn't find any nice 3gens here in Austria🇦🇹. I just really like the design of the 2&3 and how rare they are. I'm planning on swapping a F20B into my 2. Gen, but it's really tuff and expensive bc of the laws here in Austria. So I will have to wait until I'm done with school😁

    That shape and contour of a Prelude was always masculine and cool. Even though the 4th gen was slightly different as they went for softer edges and “electric dashboard”, I think all 5 generations were handsome in their own ways. I once owned a 97 5th gen and loved it. Always wanted to refresh one someday… a 3 or 4th gen would be nice.

I've been driving a 1998 Civic with a D16Y8 Vtec and when I put this Prelude on the road 3 weeks ago I just stopped driving the Civic. There is nothing like taking a back road with lots of curves in a Prelude.
