1993 Honda Prelude 2 Dr Si Coupe
Review
This car has been a disappointment due to the inferior quality of replacement electrical system parts... three main relays have failed (replacement approximately $700 each) and three ignition switches failed (replacement approximately $200 each). Honda Prelude replacement electrical parts are garbage IMHO. I will likely never purchase another Honda. However, the best car I ever owned was a 1990 Acura Integra.
Favorite Features
engine, automatic transmission (bulletproof)
Suggested Improvements
Honda: Source your electrical parts from somewhere other than China or N. Korea. They're total crap.

1993 Honda Prelude 2 Dr Si 4WS Coupe
Review
This is a really fun to drive car. It's got good power, when you take off in first and run it up to about 3,000 rpm and just stomp on the gas, the tires break loose and just start spinning. I love it.
Favorite Features
Power for a 4 cylinder, I was really underestimating the power, also the 4ws is a dream come true.
Suggested Improvements
The interior should have better seating room but everything else is great.

1993 Honda Prelude 2 Dr Si 4WS Coupe
Review
The 93 prelude 4WS si i think is the best that Honda has ever made. The performance is just right for a 4 cyl that dose not have a VTEC motor and the convertible is unbelievable.
Favorite Features
The 4WS.
Suggested Improvements
Bring the prelude back honda.

Review
Bought my red 5 speed in June 2005 with 129,000 miles on the clock. I now have 150,000 and I just love this car. I like the punch, the great corner- carving ability and the looks. Each time I walk past the car I just have to smile. I know the 4WS makes the car heavier and therefore slower than the VTEC, but the handling is so great it is worth it. I soon intend to use it as a track day car (while continuing the "daily driver" duties.)
Favorite Features
The styling, the solid feel of the entire car, the Si engine (that can run well on 87 octane when the gas gougers raise the prices). The trunk is capable for a true sports car. Even the back seat is OK for some storage as I bought the car knowing no human over 6 months old could fit in it.
Suggested Improvements
It needs at least 1 cup holder and a bigger glove box. I'd also like to see more after-market options.
