Thank you Forty, he is still arguing tho, he recs that the trans top sol may be heavier than the EG civ but his manual roof top is lighter, and he still reckons its as stiff cos he said its got A roll over bar.
Tell your freind he is stupid, my 98 sedan is lighter than his del sol. Mine comes in at 2339lbs so hey look at that even lighter than a eg hatch

I kinda look at it as the Miata of the Hondas.
Dont down-grade a miata like that, they are very accomplished road race and auto-x cars. the S2000 is the Miata of honda's

i had a del sol, 93 red. mine was a piece of rusty crap, but it had rims and was real low. you sit real low to the ground, like in a corvette. i loved it. i blew the motor and sold it for 500 bucks.( #2 rod through the block at 5k). when i get money i am buying another one

i don't know, I don't like these much. I figure that Mr2 is in the same class, but much better, because it has a better power plant, mid engine and RWD, thus making it an entry level sports car. In my mind, MR2 is what Del Sol should have been. Honda did not redeem itself until they came up with S2k

actually i think del sols look better than civics, and theyre lighter so they can be made faster easier.
They are not lighter for one, and a regular civic's chassis is alot stiffer being the del sol have a removable targa top thingy. To me and this is just me i veiw them as a chick car.
oh snaps ur right. oh well. i still like the del sols

there ain't nuthin like running at 7k with the roof of and a loud exhaust ringing in your ears guys. besides when they are reeal low they don't look like girls cars any more.

the del sol was a replacement for the crx and was still called a crx in japan it is a fwd civic so i dont see how it could be compared to a miata or a s2000 or defently no where near similar to a mr2 . its a 2 seater civic with a litel difrent look yes it is a littel hever do to chasi stiffing for the targa top but not buy a hole lot and can be just az zippie as a coupe or hatch so i thik it all comes down to witch one you like the looks of the best and i dont think its just a girls car girls just like convertables so of coures u are going to see a lot of chicks driving them

Im only talking looks. I know Miatas can be turned into beasts, but they do look a lot like the Del Sols.

And as for the red Sol SiR, damn.
