The 2.2 liter VTEC H22A of the Honda Prelude was one of Honda's best engines of the era in the exact same drivetrain layout as every single other 90s Honda, but for some reason nobody cares about the old Honda Prelude anymore. Today we look at a bunch of fifth gen grand touring Civic XLs and hope to find something worthwhile on Facebook Marketplace. We do not succeed and our audio is blown out. Sorry! - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ

You guys are the reason why I’ll never put any of my cars for sale online 😂
Will you trade for a dirt bike? 😅
Same!!!
Ahahaha actual facts.
CCF has slowly but surely become my favorite channel on youtube
Agreed dudes are super down to earth shit on those who need to be shit on and always give me a good laugh 😂
My dad used to own one of these in Nordic Mist Metallic with a 5MT and the rare leather interior. He had to sell it when I was younger and I've been on the hunt for it, or one similar since. But this video has just reinforced my worse fears that some ricer got it and killed it lol
I hope you manage to find it ^^
I have it
Was also looking for one, but saw a 96" stock Accord with the F22B1, not exactly a Prelude, but hey, just swapped a prelude SI 5speed in and with some mods it is somewhat close... It is also quite nice to roadtrip because of space and the interior
The comment about the prices in Hawaii are absolutely true. We have ridiculous car prices because 1. Everything has to be shipped from over seas which drives cost up 2. There isnt a whole lot of desirable cars so theyre just wayyyy harder to come by and 3. If it runs and drives, its automatically “worth” 2x the amount. For example, we have people asking 6k+ for civic shells. SHELLS
You can absolutely drive a shell, ever seen the flintstones?
Mechanic probably swallowed the key and tightened a ziptie around his neck as soon as he saw that prelude
I love my Prelude. I’ve owned it for about over a year now and it’s been awesome. It’s got 32k miles, thing is mint.
preludes are the hood vette, gotta love it, great work as always ccf
Except people in the “hood” don’t drive preludes
@@trackshunYou know everybody in the hood or you full of assumptions? Cause I got 3 people that in know personally that can call your bluff on that bs.
@@RECKLESS.DR1VER 😂the idea isn’t that nobody in the hood drives it. I was honestly refering to gangsters, not generalizing people in low income areas.
Fuck yea finally! Preludes are so slept on
Currently restoring a 99 prelude. love that car, cant wait to drive it again!
Prelude is the could’ve been rwd Honda coupe
The s2000 replaced it and that’s what it was. I prefer a coupe over a 2 seater and the looks of the prelude and history over the s2000.
Dude don't you know, through years of extensive research, design and on-track testing, ISR makes such premium tier products that they spawned a whole no name knock-off market based on their designs. ISR knows what they are selling. Best of all, they get it right the first time through decades of combined knowledge and experience.
After dailying a 89 lude for 2 years missing out on vtec a real killer
I wouldn't be able to own a non-vtak Honda, that's like if Crocs made a normal shoe
@@CollectorCarFeed 4ws slaps 3am civics on the touges so ill take my wins when i see them
CCF speaking facts. The younger generation needs to understand that a “build” is so much more work and money than you can imagine.
Love my lude, even having 630 whp Z nothing beats this car. maybe because it's the first car I worked so hard for 😅
That is a dash cam, needed for those crazy drivers
Do people use GoPros as dash cams normally? Seems more like an incentive to break into your car than a deterrent
@@CollectorCarFeed that wasn’t a GoPro it was a rove dash cam
I’ve always liked the look of the preludes. They aged pretty well.
My sister had a prelude back in the 90's I always loved it. Never ended up getting one, but I did buy a hatch ek with a h22 back about 2010, it is prolly one of the best 4k dollar cars I ever bought.
selling :
6th gen Prelude, 2.3L VTEC TURBO JDM base model with upgrades CLEAN TITLE swap K20 (not modified!!!!) RWD 6 speed automatic car is red but on the picture it looks green, no low-baller I know what I've got, can exchange with a Harley Shovelhead or a John Deer. 10K$ grand (cheap). I don't trade. The first gear is dead but the tran is brand new. Acura NSX wheels and WRX wing mounted by my cousin (he's a pro). Some electrical problems due to water damage but otherwise runs just fine. Used vape and Pokemon card booster deck included.
Preludes might be one of the couple 90's hondas that havnt changed in value in many years.
Yeah, these and accords seem to not get enthusiast love since they were "old man Hondas".
@@damienlee1165 true, yep the accords too.
I really hope the prices keep climbing on these because they were slept on ❤
Used to have one of these. My favorite car that I have owned
I remember as a kid my neighbour’s daughter across the street owned a mint prelude. I accidentally set the car alarm off trying to fish a tennis ball from underneath the car with my hockey stick, just barely hit the skirt and it had one of those wild ass early 2000s alarm systems that give you like 6 different alarms in one lol
I love that sound
@@mightyjoebean same here man. The good ol days
These look good i wish there was a sportier trim like SI or Type R
Being from NC and living here, Bo and Cook Out are both amazing.
That huge wing is OEM optioned. The 5th Gen came with 4 wings. High rise, mid rise, low rise and the flush mount.
Yeah these kooks don't know half as much as they think they do.😂
Not in the USA
got one of these for 4k, rough body but holy shit short shifter, coilovers and upgraded/replacing suspension bushings and it’s a fun ass car
Bro this is the new top gear ong
very funny mechanic died no keys that got me LOL thanks was fun to listen !!! I own nice prelude original 71K miles very clean and manual !!!
im the second owner of my 2000 honda prelude, satin silver metallic with 150k miles and the keys still have the orignal blue thurston dealer tags, i wouldnt sell it but if i had to put a price on it it would be 10-15k because of the rarity of it. and rarity if it not being defiled and clapped out, it is extremely well kept i love my prelude🙏🏼
Windshield tint is not stupid. Those sun strips are fucking stupid. But tinting your whole windshield in something reasonable is very useful. The biggest and most angled piece of glass on your car letting in the most light and heat being tinted with a ceramic film is one of the best things you can do. Not only that, but having super dark sides with a clear windshield is like funneling all of the light directly into your retinas. I hate driving or riding in cars with limo sides and a bare windshield.
I mean, I'm not fond of limo sides in general, but a good 20/50 combo is my game. I accidentally ended up with a 30% ceramic tinted windshield paired with 15 on the sides of one of my cars and it was only a little annoying at night. But in the Florida heat? That car was painted black and I could leave it in the sun for hours, then get in and I could actually bear to sit in it for a full two minutes before feeling the desperate NEED to drop a window or prop a door open that you usually immediately feel from getting into a car in those conditions.
And to top it all off, the car would be freezing you out of it within 10 minutes of the AC being on full blast. Compared to the 20+ minutes just to get it down to almost room temperature in an untinted car.
The u.s. version had the h22a4 which is a composite block to increase cooling to the cylinders for longer tracks and roads because the americas are big af. The jdm version has the h22a which they just made thicker to deal with he heat... the h22a is the swap and boost motor the a4 has thin sleeves and has to have them changed out to be boosted and not fail but is still not as durable overall.
Would be nice if guys covered the 3rd gens, I feel they're slept on more than 5ths
3rd gens get overlooked hard
Chill my guy I look for a clean 3rd gen now don’t need the price to go through the roof lol 3rd gen the best gen absolutely love that car I had a 2nd gen back in the day loved it too but 3rd gen is perfection.
“You wanna buy a 4 pack of preludes?” 😂 Funny shit😆
I shipped my 01 lude to Germany. Have never seen another one in Germany yet, but they did sell lude in Europe. The Honda dealer here even asked me what kind of car it is. The European spec lude has different bumper lights than mine.
PRELUDE GANG RISE UP💯💯💪🤙🤙💪💯🔥🔥
Seeing some of these cars makes me happy that I keep my 5 speed 01Prelude in near mint condition. 😊
mann i just took mine off marketplace like a month ago i wish i would’ve kept it now😂. would’ve been an actual nice one on here
feed i’m going back the chicken conversation. Slim Chickens is goated. You have to give the place a chance. There’s only 2 of them in my state (one of them is at my college) and it’s so good.
We have a Slim Chickens here, I'll give them ONE MORE TRY. Zaxby's can still go to hell, I'm going to Toyotathon
The cl9 tsx is also one of the forgotten jewels too man. People don’t know capability on those carss
The mechanic dying and the key being lost is infinitely funny. That needs to be in a museum.
The 4th gens have aged so well in my opinion.
Only thing that sucks on them is the taillights, and they're not even that bad. 5th gen is a real charmer though
No offense but to me the 4th gen is the weird step son of the prelude family. Looks more like a jdm integra to me.
I’ve got a 01 prelude and I fucking love it!
I've got an 01 base, great daily
Me and my homies love CCF❤️❤️
Man I love preludes 3rd gen my favourite wish Mr Honda made a type R
Plot twist: the "joker" theme is actually the EVA01 color scheme. :)
God that prelude in the thumbnail looks good.
I have always loved Preludes. That and the Integra Type-R are under rated I think.
3rd gens are my favorite, but 5th gens look kinda like skylines so they’re cool
Junkyard won’t take it if it don’t got a title
Crazy Ray will let it slide but just this once
Literally bought a prelude yesterday
my condolences. I hope your next car isn't a slow FWD wanna be sports car
@@RotaryPoweredRX wow you really got me with that one 🤓👍
I work at the lords chicken and our chicken does, in fact, fuck.
My pleasure
Thubnail is just a dream
Netgear decided to speak facts this episode.
"You know what's more fun than a non-running Honda Prelude project? A running Honda Fit." Based as fuck. Besides, the Honda Fit is is still a fun car. That car needs about 10k worth of work done to it in order to be a car worth $5,000.
You guys lucky to have only H22 versions in the US! In Europe we got mostly beated up F20 with like 130hp (non VTEC ones) Preludes for 1-2k $ or H22 with like 200hp (VTEC ones) w 4WS for like 4k or more $ very rarely :///
You talking 4th gen prelude... because 5th gen only has h22.
@@barri0_993 Nah, in Europe it also has F20 w 130hp :/
yes dude! That cake song fuckin rips
Wow I can't believe discount DevilDogGamer dragged Zaxby's through the mud like that.
Weird Italian guy and zoiderg on downers are officially my new best friends.
i always show up on time when my dad netgear is in the vid
I regretted selling this car.
F
Just picked up a bone stock mint 2 owner 97 prelude with 98k on the odometer. Keeping it forever.
That's an OEM high rise spoiler.
I refuse to believe Honda was stacking shxt that high at the factory
@@CollectorCarFeed It's a type S oem spoiler. They weren't a thing in the US.
Have you seen the used prices - these are far from forgotten!
Windshield tint is great and functional in the south. Sucks it’s illegal
I like the Lude, but I prefer my CL-S 6mt, which looks like a 5th teg and Lude mixed with a Legend Coupe. Plus I like a J motor with my torque down low 🤙
That first part of the video is hilarious
if Bojangles isn't the best then explain why else they'd have a Bojangles Coliseum, I'll wait
LFG boys it's friday
i love these videos lmaoo
Always wanted to get a prelude as a 2nd car, for a cool show project or something. But somehow they got more expensive in worse condition over the past few years
first project car as of a few months ago!
Good luck, did you get a 5th gen like these?
@@CollectorCarFeed 1997 5 speed! I bought it for 1.5k no start and I had to change the fuel pump and do a bunch of other work too. next step is to paint! Learned allot and I would recommend this car to anyone that wants a simple yet sporty honda 👍🏼
Strawberry little trees? Certified maniac.
I just bought a prelude pretty “clean” lol 95k miles 2 owners auto tran interior looks brand new for 4k.. what yall think?
Now I’m over here like I did a pretty good job looking at this vid. I was gonna resell it but I kinda like the car now
I miss the 4WS tag on the earlier Preludes, I believe it was ‘85 & ‘87 they had it, don’t quite remember.
I always loved Preludes though, it would be amazing to see what Honda could do with a new generation of them. Long since wanted a ‘98 with RWD conversion and an LS7 with Tremec TKO
Saw a dude with a tinted windshield cut in front of a semi at a red light today
Man most of those were just beat to hell and back.
Got mine for 500 and wrecked it. Now they’re 5000
Netgear talking about having ur girl snuggled up next to you on a bench seat brought me back to my first truck. 1990 f150 xlt lariat. Me and my ex spent privavly half our relationship in that truck.
the autos on these blow up weekly
I can’t believe netgear thought a dash cam in a daily driver was a GoPro for racing 😂
Did Netgear ERR?
“windshield tint is so stupid, pull me over please”
**laughs in floridian 🐊 **
If everyone keeps making clips like these, the prices are gonna go up... i was lucky enough to get a pristine condition one for an amazing price recently, but no classic car is safe from overhyping, leading to overpricing😢
That wing on the black manual is an oem type S wing altho the type S was not released in the US. Can you do the sc300/sc400 next?
i hope the sc400s stay lowkey so i can cop a nice one lmao
@@2AMinLosAngeles im actively looking for a sc400 now that my big single turbo sc300 is almost done tuning wise.
Can you guys do the toyota MRS/MR2 spyder? The 3rd gen MR2
My buddy found a mint factory manual white lude with 60k kms, something like 40k miles garage kept its whole life for like 8k a year ago. Trying to convince him not to sell it
Also has the rare full leather interior
Would give both of my kidneys to go back in time to to make Honda executives Make the Prelude RWD.
And I'd force Mitsubishi to make the FTO RWD too
i was hoping i saw mine on here lol
Hey front window tint is fine, just live in a place where cops cant pull you over for it lol
3rd gen prelude superiority
They need to react to the Throtl dream builds
21:17 Click here for a glimpse outside of the matrix.
Grab a beer, CCF just uploaded 😩
The third gen though ❤
"The mechanic died and no one could find the key," i've heard that excuse three times before this video dropped. Edit: 26:00 that's the ether line
Prelude should have been RWD. Or at least half assed AWD.
I was trying to help my friend find a used car to buy once and the number of people who brought the cars dirty as fuck was surprising. I literally told them. We're not buying it, it's way too dirty.
Well shit, I have windshield tint but most for the heat reflective properties. I feel self conscious now
i think preludes came out as 2.0 98Kw as well not only 2.2
I turbocharged my european f20a4 prelude
That first clip tho... that person had carpet in the whole garage to fix cars? shiii if I bought carpet to fix my cars my dad and mom would trade it for a cardboard LOL
Pronouncing V-tech as V- tac is a little wild
