Did the Honda Prelude Miss the JDM Boat?

Did the Honda Prelude Miss the JDM Boat?

In this week's show, Ariff discusses the return of Formula One in March, and the launch of Gran Turismo 7 - the most anticipated racing video game in years, and the development of an AI called 'Sophy'. Next, Daniel has some good news for Citroen/DS owners and Motorcycle riders, and then go through the car launches, featuring the Honda Odyssey, Mercedes-Benz C-Class, and two new Mercedes-Maybach ultra-luxury cars.

Finally, in Part 3, Daniel discusses an interesting late-eighties Honda that's somehow missed the boat in riding the JDM wave. Has the Honda Prelude been forgotten, or was it just 'not that interesting to car enthusiasts?'
