Restored Honda Prelude in Clinton, NJ | Clinton Honda

3 Awesome Discontinued Hondas That Should Return From the Dead

Honda has long been known for two attributes. First, Honda is a cutting-edge brand continually introducing new models. Second, the automaker is known for incredible reliability. Combine these two attributes and it is no wonder that there are many Honda models that are no longer available to buy new (having been replaced by another innovation) but are still available in good operating condition on the used market, sometimes for hefty sums. Wouldn't it be fun if Honda brought back some of these discontinued models for even one more year? Here are three that would be particularly exciting to see: S2000 The S2000 was unlike anything else that you could buy at the time, and it still remains unique today. It was a two-seat roadster equally at home on a residential street as a race track. Its VTEC engine could get up to a stunning 9000 RPM. That alone would be enough to get consumers excited. Add to it the vehicle's sporty look, complete with a fully convertible roof, and the S2000 would rival any luxury vehicle on the market today. CRX This two-seat hatchback was critically acclaimed, twice winning Motor Trend's Import Car of the Year. It was also a hit with consumers for one simple more reason: its incredible fuel efficiency. The CRX had some of the highest miles per gallon ever seen in a gasoline engine, numbers that match or surpass even the hybrids of today. The light, aerodynamic design that led to this efficiency also helped give the CRX another one of its signature traits: exceptional handling. Just for fun, Honda should also bring back the original colors as well. Who wouldn't want Tahitian Green or Barbados Yellow? Prelude The Prelude is well-known among car enthusiasts as a more sporty version of the Accord that was perfect for more aggressive drivers. The evidence behind these claims is pretty clear. The Prelude certainly had a sporty look, with a sleek two-door design and a standard moonroof. In terms of the claim that it could handle aggressive handling, consider the classic Road and Track test of the '88 model. The Prelude was able to maintain a higher average speed on a slalom course than every other car tested. Not just sedans or coupes, mind you, but every other car. Honda is certainly already a popular automobile brand, with several models that are consistently at or near the top of best-selling vehicle lists. However, Honda's success in the classic car scene, where many of its discontinued models are hot commodities, and the rise of the retro trend across all industries will hopefully convince the company to bring back these absolute gems from its past. At the end of the day, this dream scenario for many car enthusiasts is likely just that: a dream. However, it sure is fun to imagine brand-new versions of these classic beauties out on the road.
