2001 prelude
 

Hello everyone,

I am thinking about buying a 2001 Honda Prelude with 13,000 miles on it.
Does anyone know if this model year has any known quirks or defects? Are
parts easy to get for Preludes?

Thank you,

K Ramirez

I have a Black 2001 Prelude Type SH. Bought it new in Dec. 2000. I
have about 46,000 miles on it and the worst problem I have had was a flat
tire. Nothing has gone wrong yet. Parts for it is still easy to get. Just
call the dealership and you should have no trouble getting parts still. One
drawback...the rumor that it rides rough on the interstate is true. Top
speed is right at 143.

My opinion, buy it. I am 21 and I love mine.

Douglas sounds like a great car but if you wanna make 22 best not run her
out at 143 too many times. If you were nabbed for speeding you could sign
you life over to an insurance company if you haven't already. They hit you
young dudes damn hard, I know. I have a niece that pays 4 grand a year to
drive a beater due to and accicdent and multiple speeding violations..

Only topped her out twice. I share your concern with the insurance thing
though.

hehe. not even 150? sheesh! my 2k daewoo lanos (modded of course) only puts
out 190hp, but i can zoom past 150 to about 165... only done that on a
closed track (DONT STREET RACE.. ITS NOT WORTH LOOSING YOUR CAR AND
LICENSE). in texas, if youre caught racing like that, they take you to jail,
suspend your license, and tow your car, and lock you up for 6 months, no
questions asked. if you must speed, go to a closed track. also consider
modding that prelude. im considering dropping a 2k prelude motor in my
daewoo :D
