Mr Meredith had one of those distinctive voices. I'll go around, repeating the one or two lines in the commercial, just trying to say it just like him. RIP Burgess
This was my first car and I used to race my best friends 87 mustang 5.0 of course he would beat all the time but I out raced him everytime...I remember a few occasions where he would blow by me as if I was just standing there but a couple of miles down he would be on the breakdown lane with his hood up and over heating as I would drive on bye laughing my ass off... Good times !! I'll never forget.
I eventually sold the honda with 190,000 miles for $4000 bucks to a mexica dude...
Yeah, I liked mine a lot, but it had so many miles on it, the specs in this commercial really no longer applied. I would love to find one in "time capsule" condition though.
My cousin had one of these...we beat the absolute piss out of that poor car. I think it eventually blew the head gasket, and they junked it. I kinda wish we'd have tried to save it.
This, and many other things now, makes me wish it was still 1986 or so. I would go buy a new Prelude today if so. They were cool cars. Thanks for sharing.
if u do ur research ull find out this is still holding its record as the best handling car all around,. of course some new stuff can outhandled it , they also have all new suspension parts. give it the same and it will murder all competition . honda did a outstanding job with it .. go 2g
I own one of these. Car is a piece of work. With some simple mods I run about 16.39. Don't have 5th gear anymore. But the car is still fast. It beat my friends Spectra at the drag by barely seconds. lol
My dad used to own one and it was manual. It was so fun to drive, but on his we lost 5th gear, then 3rd, then 2nd lol so he sold it to some guy that wanted to turn it into a race car.
I have a 5th gen now, but I had a white one just like the one in this ad. I had too much fun and crashed it. I'd still be driving that, my '99 civic si didn't really even compare.
Awesome video - thanks. That's my car - '85 prelude SI in Montreal blue. Bought new 22 years ago, 140k miles young. Have never seen a worthwhile replacement and the darn thing is in better shape than I.
montreal? i got one like this and im living in quebec too, i live in a small town near of new brunswick,you probably know who is yves lapointe? the guy with the cleanest 83 prelude in qc
The narrator totally sounds like Burgess Meredith... you'll remember this guy as Rocky's coach in the 1st Rocky ... great actor. Can anybody confirm? Chris in Montreal. (2nd Gen. Lude Lover)
It still holds its own even today 20 years old and all of them not in good shape lol. It was the best car of the 80's no doubt about that. Was a dam good car during the 90s too. Besides owning 2 of them, I see 2nd gens all over the place every day here. They keep on running :)
keep it up mate. But i have one.NOT SEEN THESE ON THE ROAD FOR THE LONG TIME. I HAVE THE EXACT SAME AS URE ADVERT ON HERE.IF I CAN BUY PARTS FOR IT ILL DRIVE IT ON WEEKENDS. WICKED ADVERT MATE
I can appreciate this commercial for the sheer fact that they didn't dub out the actual noises of the car or replace them with fake car noises (like so many car companies do in their commercials) to make the car sound better than it actually is.
0:10 looks like the car doesn't have abs in this commercial?
