Overview

The Prelude had just been redesigned the previous year, and so Honda's sporty coupe remained the same for the 1989 model year.
The 1989 Honda Prelude came in three trims: the base S model, the midrange Si, and the 4WS. The S had a 2.0-liter, 104 horsepower engine. The Si and the 4WS both came with a 2.0-liter, 135-horsepower engine, which was Honda's most powerful engine to date. The Si and 4WS were both well-equipped with things like power windows. All Preludes had a sunroof. Fuel economy was about 23/27.
Drivers are very enthusiastic about the 1989 Honda Prelude, even today. Some even say it is the best car they have ever driven, citing the handling, comfortable seats, and sporty looks as their favorite features. Many drivers wish for more power, and some complain about the tiny backseat.

The car was not only sporty looking and handled beautifully, it cornered with great handling. The engine was very low maintenance, with good gasoline mileage. The interior is wearing beautifully. Safe, reliable, and a real keeper. I am very sorry to have to sell this car.

Out of this world handling - best outward visibility - pretty reliable car - kinda slow sometimes - great brakes - sharp steering - sweet popup headlights - very very fun car to drive with the 4-wheel-steering and tight suspension. Very much recommended for anyone who loves a good handling and steering car. Very low sitting though and almost no rear seat leg room. Low roofline.

no mechanical problems w/ 280000 mi, strong motor with quite a bit of power for a light car. definitely a good tuner car to build up and race.
