For 1980, its second year of existence, the Honda Prelude coupe changed very little. The two-speed "Hondamatic" was replaced by a comparatively advanced three-speed automatic transmission. The 1980 Honda Prelude came with a 1.7-liter, 72 horsepower four cylinder engine, which was Honda's most powerful. Though it had a backseat, it was for all purposes a two-seater. The Prelude came standard with a five-speed manual transmission. At the time, many drivers looked past the Prelude because of its strange looks and oddly configured dash. However, driving enthusiasts found the car, with its peppy engine, high-end tires, and rack and pinion steering, to be a joy to operate. Now, this generation of Prelude is a collector's item.

Reviewed a 1980 Honda Prelude on Feb 07, 2013

I was looking for a cheap second car to drive to work, and was all ready to sell out and buy a Festiva when I stumbled on an ad for a 1980 5-speed Prelude. I made a seriously lowball offer, and after a few hours the seller called me back and accepted $1200. It has 220,000 kilometers (145K miles) on it and is in amazing original condition. The body is straight, with good white paint. The interior is exceptional and mechanically (after another $900 to my mechanic) it's excellent. I can't believe how much fun it is to drive! Everything feels tight, the motor runs out strong, and it's as happy as I am taking corners at speed. My last sports car was a 1985 RX7 with an auto transmission, and I prefer the Prelude by a comfortable margin. It's not as pretty as the RX7, but it's much more fun and way cheaper to run.
