1995 Honda Prelude Vtec Coupe 2-door 2.2l on 2040-cars
Bethesda, Maryland, United States
|
Up for sale is my 1995 Prelude VTEC coupe. Very rare car and I don't see many for sale at all. Mine is all original, no aftermarket modifications at all. It's got the rare H22A1 DOHC VTEC motor churning out 190hp and 153lbs tq which back in '95 was unheard of from a non-turbocharged, naturally aspirated motor but even by todays standards is still pretty potent. The interior is very clean all black interior with black leather sporty seats, the floor mats still in good condition and rear seats probably never used. It's got power windows, power door locks, power steering, power sunroof, power mirrors, cruise control and anti-lock brakes. The ac compressor went bad so it unfortunately will need to be replaced. The exterior could use a paint job, the body is straight so you could probably just take it to maaco and get it done for cheap. The abs and srs lights are on. So it has a few issues, but make no mistake, this car is very rare and has more power than an em1, gsr and more torque than a type r integra, and enough power to rival many new cars, it is very fun to drive. The body style is timeless and easily stands out and turns heads. The interior and dash is very unique and makes modern day cars look weak by comparison and the dash lights are like something out of a sci-fi movie. There is plenty of room for improvement in order to squeeze out more ponies like an exhaust system, intake or turbo if that's your thing because this car has never been messed with. You'll be hard pressed to find one with decent mileage, price or it's not the VTEC version.

Honda speeds down memory lane with its first F1 car
Fri, 22 Nov 2013Though most Formula One teams are based in the UK, they hail from places all around the world. There are teams from Russia, India and Malaysia, but in the 1960s, the idea of an F1 team coming from as far away as Japan was unthinkable in what was a predominantly European racing series. That's just the notion that Honda aimed to upset when it entered the car you see here in the 1964 Formula One World Championship.
With a 1.5-liter V12 dispensing 220 horsepower through a six-speed manual (its shifter necessitating the steering wheel mounted left-of-center), the 1964 Honda RA271 was built around an aluminum monocoque in a package that looks like a Formula Vee car you could erect in your garage, but it state-of-the-art when it was built. Speaking of which, Honda only built one, and today it's part of the Honda Collection Hall at Motegi, but the priceless racer made the trip down to Japan's capital so we could check it out at the Tokyo Motor Show. Awfully nice of Honda, we'd say. Check it out in our gallery of live shots from the show floor above.
Honda reveals three new turbo VTEC engines, including Civic Type R 2.0L
Tue, 19 Nov 2013It's fair to say that in recent years, Honda has been viewed as a laggard when it comes to engine and gearbox development, seemingly missing the boat on direct-injection, forced-induction and high gear-count transmissions, among other things. But under its Earth Dreams banner, the Japanese automaker is showing new vigor, with the latest proof being this trio of just-announced powerplants.
Measuring 1.0-liters, 1.5-liters and 2.0-liters in displacement, this array of three- and four-cylinder engines boasts turbocharging and direct-injection along with the latest iteration of Honda's famed VTEC variable valve timing hardware. "Most suitable for small-to-medium-sized vehicles," the largest engine is said to be good for more than 276 horsepower and will slot into the eagerly awaited Civic Type R, iconic red valve cover and all.
Unfortunately, few other details about the hot Civic's engine or any of the others are being made public at this time, and there's no official word about the engines coming to North American in the Type R or any other model. Given that all the engines are complaint with stringent Euro 6 emissions standards, they figure to be clean enough, and Honda says that these have been developed as global powerplants, so we'd be shocked if they didn't come ashore in new or updated products over the next few years... even if they leave the CTR on the boat.
Acura NSX bodywork to be sheathed in zirconium e-coat, fewer paint layers
Tue, 05 Aug 2014Automakers make halo cars to drum up excitement and show off what they can do, but there's more to it than that. Advanced platforms allow a company's engineers to experiment with all sorts of technologies. And in the case of the upcoming new Acura NSX, that includes new paint processes.
Speaking with Autoline in this video interview, Honda's North American Senior VP Jon Minto talked about an innovative zirconium e-coat which it's applying to the new NSX. Unlike some experimental paints developed for Formula One, however, this coating is not designed to minimize drag or enhance cooling: it's designed to be more environmentally friendly.
It's one of a few measures which Honda is implementing on the NSX before expanding it to more accessible models, along with another process that uses fewer coats to reduce energy consumption by 40 percent. Watch the interview with Autoline host John McElroy right here.
