1993 Honda del Sol S from North America - Comments

"I great project car for any import fan; a great 1st car for anyone; an economical sports car."

What things have gone wrong with the car?

I had to replace the alternator after having it for about one month.

No other issues I have had with this car could be blamed on the car itself. The previous owner raced it and did several modifications. All repairs I've done were based on fixing damage on a car that was driven like someone stole it.

General comments?

I love this vehicle. I wrecked my Saturn and I wanted another Honda pretty bad. I found this bright yellow del Sol with a Buddy Club kit, coil overs, and dual exhaust for $2500. The odometer is messed up so the mileage is unknown, but who cares? What a deal! I put on some 16 inch Enkie Rims with Kumho tires, put in some Kenwood speakers with matching CD, fixed up the enterior a little, and now people are offering up to $5500 for this thing. I am completely satisfied and plan on holding on to this baby for a long time. I even named her Solvi. The girls love this car. Cruising with the top down on warm summer nights in Texas is an absolute dream. I only wish it was faster. With the body modifications these silly racers are always pulling up next to me and wanting to compete for speed. They'll just have to wait until I drop in that LS motor.

The cab is roomy. Plenty of trunk space. I wish it came with factory rear speakers, but it does not. The seats in this thing are super sporty. It handles wonderfully and if you lower it you feel like you're one with the road.

I have a 93' Del sol also, it did come with factory rear speakers. They were 5 and 1/2 inch behind the seats in the corners right below the window.

Dear Original Poster and Follow-Up Poster.

I think that the Follow-Up Poster is correct regarding the speakers. It seems that my 1993 del sol 1.5 liter has a pair of front door speakers towards the front of the two doors and another pair just at the back and to the right behind each door.
