That's a '79, the first year for the Prelude and the only year with those side marker lights. For 1980 they became more rectangular and were moved up on the fenders. (Never knew why... these were more attractive.)
Love these mini Benz 450SLC knockoffs. Thanks for the side marker info...never noticed that before. Definitely like these better than the bike reflectors on later years!
Wonder if this had the two speed Hondamatic since there is no "5-speed" badge on the back?
Best of OPC.

I see 3-4 OPC's! Debating whether the Passat counts, haven't seen one for long time.
Hahaa, the car under that hood instantly reminded me of The Beast...

Is that the luxurious landau model??

I'm interested in that Nova behind it, to say the least.
lolz @ the 450slc reference.
i can't tell what the owner is going for here, but the black hood is a pretty badass custom touch.
crazy rare.
i think i spent a few minutes driving north on I5 alongside this car at 70 mph a few weeks ago.
