  • A full in depth tour of a 1998 prelude 5 spd will be coming within the next 2 weeks or so. In continuation of my "Short Takes" video series at All City Auto, I give a tour of a 1999 honda prelude. I take viewers on a close look through the interior and exterior of this car while showing details, over viewing of features, and noting unique styling cues to the vehicle itself. I also show the engine and the details of it, start it up and see how it sounds under acceleration. A thorough tour/review of this car designed to give others a greater overall appreciation of the vehicle.

    Own a red 2000 lude, everytime I see another one I feel like buying another one. Love this car so much!

    I bought a 1997 red Prelude for about 2,500 dollars. In mint condition everything works and also came with 2 subwoofers in the trunk and Sony Xplod sound system and stereo...

    I had the same model and color of Prelude but with the 5 spd manual and the factory rear spoiler. Great car.

    Is this the 4WS (4-wheel-steer) version? I used to drive one of those a couple of years ago, could do a 180 degree turn on a penny :D

    Great review.This is a real Japan made Honda.Japanese desing , 2.2 engine with 200 HP , 4-SPEED Automatic transmission with SEQUENTIAL SPORTSHIFT and all that in 1999.
    Now Honda its more american than ford and chevy together.SAD.

    @saabkyle04 It never ceases to amaze me how you always find a great song on the radio in every video. 1 question, Doesn't this car have the same Engine as the Accord Coupe? It's like they have 2 of the exact same car with a different body. I never understood that.

    Yes, love the Prelude and really wanted a vid of it. Thank you so much for both videos (know the next one will be great as always)! :D
    Could you do a video of a 4th gen if you ever come across one? I at least think it's one of the prettiest cars from the 90's and I usually don't like Japanese styling.

    i'm surprised this 1999 Honda has manual shift while many newer Acuras don't. My brother's 2006 MDX doesn't have it and the 3.5RLs made up to 2004 didn't have it. I've never actually driven an automatic car with manual shift, but it seems like it would be cool to have the best of both worlds.

    @SimbaTheGreat 11 років тому +5

    actually tip tronic on this car is fine. Honda had transmission problems with ALL their cars from 98-2002. There was a big fiasco over it. Just find a prelude that hasn't been abused and use Honda transmission fluid and you should be fine with the auto.

    Why you hating on a 4-speed I got a 00 Prelude 4spd Auto with 66k and its lovely. Who ever talk garbage about the Prelude 4spd dont know the NAME PRELUDE. Honda put all there new technolgy in Prelude from 4 wheel steer to Sports Shift Find me another car that had that in 97 no one not even a BMW.

  • @SimbaTheGreat

    The automatic is fine. But all automatics make cars seem a little slower, Honda tried to remedy that with the sportshift.

      same here lol I wasted my money on the car I have now but am thinking about saving up again. Anyone who works at fast food can save up 4 months of pay and pick up a top clean prelude from these era's.My dream car is the 1991 prelude Si's those are pretty pricey .

    Too bad Honda did a shitty job on the 5th gen Honda Prelude transmission that goes bad pretty much every 30,000K miles. Only get a manual Prelude if it's a 97-01.
