"Few car manufacturers can equal Honda’s genuine genius for producing cars whose design is as sensationally innovative as their engineering. No manufacturer, however, can match Honda’s record for following up a classic with a clunker. Remember the Prelude? The fourth generation of that sports coupé, produced between 1992-1996, was one of the most perfect implementations of automotive art ever to emerge from mass production. Gorgeously feline and athletic in its looks, it was a knockout to drive and so soundly put together that it routinely topped the polls for reliability and owner satisfaction. So what did Honda do? It canned it after four years and came out with a fifth generation which had all the grace and charm of a butcher’s block. The gods wept."

lol another attempt at banter is it phil?
pork scratchings at the ready
Makes me laugh. 4th gen owners have to keep shouting about how good their cars are.Its exactly like the short guy who is always telling the pub he's got a big gentleman's sausage and knows how to use it. It never turns out that way when he gets lucky though.
Ahh shame really.
and YOU bought a 5th Gen
