Leak from my prelude! :/

I just bought a 97 Honda prelude 5sp manual and 3 days after I get think leak near the front. The colour is lime green....so I'm thinking it's probably the antifreeze? The car only begins to leaks when I drive for about 5 min's and when I turn it of it stops...

So whats my problem? How serious is it? And how much would it cost to fix? Help please and thanks

Investigate yourself. Sounds like a radiator leak or hose leak. Once the block warms up it reaches the radiator to circulate. Possibly why the seller was selling.

Well thanks I'm getting it checked out today...
But for the past 3 days no issues occurred so I dunno if the seller intended this to happen...

if its a radiator leak, go to the seller and punch him right in the mouth. Right in the face.
