I think people are mis-remembering the Prelude as a great "first" car when it was only ever a first car for the second or third owner. It and other cars were "inexpensive" GT cars (when compared with...

I guess it's all subjective, but I like the looks of it in general and I'd say it's the best looking Honda available right now.

I hear you but those numbers can be made to say something else more practical. Top 20 is nice, but of the top 10 sellers, only ONE is a non Truck/SUV. Furthermore, the volume of sales is key: the...

I think the main difference between the browns is the one is leather accents while the other is cloth which would certainly explain the tonal differences.
