Honda Integra/Prelude/Accord 1976-08
Numbers of these once-desirable Hondas decline as the relative cost of keeping them going climbs. Even the ones that are left don’t help their own survival with declining values and scarce parts. VTi-R Integras from the 1990s offer cheap, interesting transport but panels are in short supply. In better shape regarding maintenance are rapid 1999-2003 Integra Type Rs with 141-147kW and 1.8 or 2.0-litre engines. Top examples will cost $16-18,000.
Surviving Accords are usually 1980-90s models but need to be very well-preserved to manage $5000. Similar money is available for excellent Preludes of similar age. The later VTi-R Preludes are more practical for frequent use and around the same money as the older shape Si.
