This 1980 Honda Prelude is now for sale. I had to sell my beloved S2000 and buy an automatic last month because of back problems, but am finding life without an S is not worth living! I will be sacrificing my Prelude for a down payment on another S. A few minor bubbles under paint but mechanically the car is in GREAT condition for the age. Photos provided upon request or see the car in person in Middletown, NY 10940. More info click here.
