85 honda prelude, dont have pictures of it yet...

had a bit of an adventure getting it home, had a brake fluid leak, brakes worked long enough to drive around town, but after a half hour on the highway went to brake and nothing... luckily made it out without a scratch on either me or my freind who was in the car, or the car itself

new brake line, and new clutch and it should be a great running car, only 124,000 miles...

Im just not a fan of the prelude series of cars. I do like the later model backend though.

Good deal on the brakes. lol

no, it was just a good deal, and i've been looking for a new car since i totalled my old one (some idiot didnt know how to stop at a stop sign...)

car was 300, 124,000 miles, needed new battery and clutch, didnt know about the brakes, but still not an expensive repair, gets good gas milage, and has a manual, so it was pretty much exactly what i was looking for. had plenty of experience working on cars so i'm not really concerned about the work it does need.

Preludes are nice cars. Good pick.
The desire for polyester is just to powerful.

I hate Japanese cars but have heard some pretty nice things about Preludes. Good job.
