The 1987 Honda Prelude Si represents a pivotal moment for Honda's
iconic sport coupe, bridging the gap between the car's second and
third generations. Depending on the exact production month, an '87
model can belong to either the tail end of the sharp, geometric
Second Generation (1983-1987) or the launch of the sleeker,
technologically advanced Third Generation (1988-1991), which
debuted in mid-1987.Introduced in mid-1987 for the subsequent model
year, the redesigned third-gen Prelude Si revolutionized the sport
compact market with world-first production technology.- Engine:
Upgraded to the 2.0-liter B20A5 dual-overhead-cam (DOHC) engine,
pushing output up to 135 horsepower.- 4-Wheel Steering (4WS): The
standalone flagship feature of this generation was its optional,
fully mechanical 4WS system. It steered the rear wheels in the same
direction as the front wheels at high speeds for lane-change
stability, and opposite at low speeds for an incredibly tight
turning radius.- Design: The hood line was dropped even lower,
utilizing high-strength steel pillars that offered near 360-degree
visibility, a hallmark praised across old-school Honda communities
like Japanese Nostalgic Car.This mostly original car has been a
part of the Duncan Imports collection since 2021. The original
owner drove the car daily and lovingly took car of his car. The
only thing that had to be replaced was the steering rack.
