Del Sol DOHC VTEC
This 1994 Honda Del Sol was the first year to be equipped from the factory with the optional 160hp DOHC VTEC (8200 RPM redline) engine and 5 speed manual transmission. It is a true low mileage (59k), rust free, survivor of the 90's Japanese pocket rocket era.
It is fully optioned with air conditioning, cruise control, targa top, electric mirrors, side windows and a retractable rear window! The vehicle body structure, wheel wells, door edges etc. are completely rust free. Paint is original. It has original wheels and comes with jack, space saver spare tire, owners manual and factory workshop manuals. It is eligible for classic car insurance and currently insured by Haggerty.
Quantum Race Works, a respected Honda race shop in Selkirk, NY, has serviced the car. Less than 3k miles ago they replaced the clutch with an Exeedy stage one package. They also upgraded the suspension and performed a 4 wheel alignment. A new Interstate battery was installed. The engine received a full tune up with original equipment factory Honda parts. A K&N element replaces the original air filter. Evans waterless coolant is also used. Brake pads were replaced and the full system flushed. Brakes and clutch have seen less than 3K of use.
This Del Sol came from the factory with 40 more horsepower than the Miata of the day! It also offered more interior room and had a much larger trunk. The Del Sol's targa top provided for open air motoring and more security when the vehicle was locked up The totally unique retractable electric rear window made for a quiet, turbulence free open air ride. When combined with Honda's jewell-like 8200 RPM DOHC VTEC engine and 5 speed, it made the Del Sol one of the most unique Japanese pocket rockets of the era!
