Overview
Some people were disappointed to learn that 1997 was the last year Honda presented the del Sol sports car. Those who drive it really enjoy the power, handling, comfort, and trunk space.
In addition owners agree it's a fun car to drive. The removable top is quite manageable at about 40 pounds, and it fits very nicely into the trunk without taking up too much storage space. Other owner-appreciated features include an excellent heating and air conditioning system and its effective combination of sports fashion and economy.
This car is highly recommended, with the only complaints I found being its small glove compartment, an antenna that requires replacement, and the fact that Honda doesn't make it anymore.

I own the S coupe. That's the base model with ~106 horsepower at the crank. The D16Y7 engine used on the S models in 1996 and 1997 is the same as the respective year LX Civics. The "D" Honda engines are notoriously reliable and make fair power while maintaining gas mileage. Honda eliminated power steering on the S models, giving more power and response. I really ended up liking NOT having PS more. The del Sol is extremely light, and I average upwards of 37+ mpg city/hwy combined. I don't drive on the highway much, mostly 55mph zones. Appearance is very pleasing. The removable top goes right on a rack in the surprisingly large trunk. The rack releases and goes up to access the trunk below without having to be take the targa out of its storage rack. The quality of the car is excellent. Newer models ('95+?) have lockable storage compartments behind the seats which come in handy. The rest of the interior is well appointed with A/C, smooth manual transmission, full gauge cluster, center compartment, and power windows. The rear window also goes down for that "convertible feel." Overall, the car is a blast to drive. It's fun, sporty, quick for a 4 cylinder due to its light weight, and very economical in respect to repairs and gas mileage. I drive mine in the winter and summer commuting over 50 miles one way. (and I love it!) P.S.-- Opt for the Si or VTEC model if you can. Watch the prices, because the standard Si is still VTEC and is a single over head cam (SOHC) D16 engine, but the VTEC del Sol is a DOHC VTEC or "B16" which produces about 160hp in respect to the Si's 125. The resale values of the VTEC del Sols are significantly higher so don't be sold on an Si as a VTEC.

I have had no problems with my vehicle. It is rather old but it has NEVER failed me (knock on wood). I would definitely recommend this car to anyone. Plus, with the economy its good gas mileage is a plus!

I bought this car as Honda build quality is excellent, and the CRX is so much fun to drive. Forget your airbags and anti this that and the other, new cars just arent fun anymore. Take 1 CRX, add some decent suspension and wheels - point it at a corner hold the gas pedal down, and simply point and hang on. This is my 3rd CRX and bang for buck you cant go past them. Easy to work on, oodles of information on mods and aftermarket parts and cheap to run. What more could you possibly want other than a factory turbo or B18C / B18CT version!
