They are good cars if you can find one. Small like a Civic but slightly sportier - make sure the dash controls work, they have a history of going bad. Mechanically they are reliable.

Having worked as a General Manager for a very successful Honda dealership, I can tell you first hand that Preludes are great cars--very reliable. However, a used car is a used car, and it's road-worthiness depends on how well it was maintained. These are the important questions:
What is the mileage? If it's over 150,000 miles, it might need major maintenance or repairs soon.
Are you buying it from a dealer or individual? If from a dealer, will they give you a warranty?
Is it a one-owner car?
Are there maintenance records?
Has the timing belt been replaced?
These are all important questions. One thing I would strongly suggest: pay a reliable mechanic to check it out, including a compression test. Better to blow a $100 on a good mechanic than to pay lots of money for a lemon.
