1993 Honda del Sol Si review from North America
"Sweet-looking bargain sports-car highly underrated...shouldn't have stopped production!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The driver's seat is worn enough to warranty a stitch or two, (or seat covers)...but not too badly.
Replaced the timing belt per Honda recommendations.
The aluminum alloy wheel in the front became badly pitted, allowing air to escape... but was easily fixed.
General comments?
Car is a 5-speed that handles very well in the terrain of Western Pennsylvania; excellent speed around turns and up hills.
Gas mileage is still about 30 miles to the gallon...city!
Seat belts can be difficult to reach, but I have no complaints.
Beautiful profile that just begs to be driven! A semi-classic look without becoming "retro."
Lots of leg-room/trunk space (once you're in the cockpit!
