Why would anyone buy a Del Sol over a Miata?
so they dont own a miata
>>14144495
the miata is mad gay
>>14144528
>>14144519
And the del sol isn't ?
In a miata you get rwd,50/50, pop up
In my area miata are either same price or cheaper than del sols
Lack of research, don't know/care, most likely.
Id rather have one than a Miata
literally why would I want a shitty Mazda engine over something I can put a based B series in
>>14144538
no
the del sol isnt a tryhard "sports car" with "50/50" "rwd" or "pop up"
its just a roadster
>>14144602
Uh, the chassis and drivetrain? Del Sols are total noodles, the Miata was at least designed to be a convertible and thus is somewhat rigid.
>>14144495
Because they like it
>>14144528
>being insecure is masculine
>>14144611
Is that your excuse for " this car drives like shit and is rarer and more expensive than the better version"
>>14144725
NA and NB dont handle well
>>14144704
masculinity has nothing to do with sexual orientation tho
>>14144696
Id rather beef up a Del Sol
Miata is so boring
>>14144725
some people arent autists that view cars as numbers and nothing else
>>14144735
>NA and NB don't handle well
You are legitimately retarded.
>>14144742
For all the work of making a civic-based convertible not shit just for the B-series engine, why not just honda-swap a Miata?
>>14144753
>le they handle gud because RWD maymay
>>14144742
>Miata is so boring
You are cracking me up guy
>>14144602
literally why would I own a shity half assed Honda roadster when I can put a based 13b in my miata
>>14144753
because a F20 swap in a Miata is going to cost a lot more?
then Id have to go about getting a lot of Autokonexion parts to make it look half way decent
>>14144759
Where the fuck did I ever imply that? They handle well because they're light, well-balanced, and have awesome suspension design with double-wishbones on all four corners, as well as being fairly rigid for a convertible. Also you have more steering lock since you don't have CVs at the front.
>>14144759
Nobody saying that
We are saying THIS ff car handles poorly , especially considering the better engineered and thought out cheaper competition
>>14144495
Fuck that question OP, tell us story on pic? Why did the chicken cross the road?
>buying a Honda
Their engines are shit and the VTEC hype died when other companies developed their own vvt.
Why would anyone who wants Del Sol buy something they don't want?
"Hi, I want a Del Sol"
"Might I interest you in a jar of peanut butter instead?"
"Mmmm...sure why not"
>>14144951
Is this written by a 16 year old girl who is on the computer too much and is a bit too into anime
>>14144957
No it's an adult pointing out how silly OPs question is.
Refer to the top of this thread.
>>14144951
But where is it implied they didn't want a Miata? They're both similar cars visually, the Del Sol just massively sucks in all departments. It'd be easy to cross shop them if you didn't know what you were doing.
>>14144933
>variable lift is variable timing
you are literally fucking retarded
>>14145002
You're whatever you want to be hon.

You literally fell for the bait.

Falling this hard for an obvious bait.
>>14145010
>But where is it implied they didn't want a Miata?
By buying a Del Sol over buying a Miata.
>>14144495
Dat B16 of course.
>>14145036
OP asked "why would someone" and not "why did someone".
>>14145025
>>14145034
>damage control
>>14145045
>B16>>>>>>>>>>>B6ZE or BP
>>14145041
And the obvious reason is.....? Because they wanted a Del Sol. Fucking Duh.
>>14144495
They'r both disgusting faggot Get a nissan 240x and cam it
>>14145080
Fuck that shit! Get some fried chicken.
>>14145046
>it's a Honda thread
>not expecting a vtec joke
Do you have a ricer friend (Honda owner) that you can troll with about these kind of things? It gets my juices flowing when he has to explain to me time and time again about much vtec.
>>14145094
>"haha look how dumb I am"
>dude you are fucking dumb
>"haha trololol"
when trolling you are supposed to make the other person look dumb, not yourself
>>14145110
Trolling is about getting a response. It doesn't matter if you're giving false information. But here's your reply my fellow Honda enthusiast.
>>14145136
hello reddit
>>14145144
Back to /tv/ with you
>>14145136
>this is what newfags actually believe
>>14145159
only if you go back to /v/ with your normalfagginess
>>14144495
To piss off autists like you.
>>14145166
Wat? Trolling has always been about that. Ever since you were in plastic pants anon. The definition has never changed.
To think, you must have been misusing the term all this months!
LOL
>>14144495
I dunno, it looks nice and it's rare. Miata owner here, but I secretly admire the old guy around my home whom I see driving a mint Del Sol sometimes.
Superior FF format
>>14145187
Projecting?
>>14144495
What if the Del Sol had been transverse RWD like the MR2?
>>14144495
To get a roadster with superior fwd. Why else?
>>14145059
Have fun finding a del sol with a b series in it, retard
>>14144602
Why bother with the B when you can easily swap a K20 into the Miata?
>>14146056
Why bother with k20 when 13b
>>14146056
because its a Miata
B>K too
>>14144495
NA Miata>2nd Gen CRX>1st gen CRX>NB Miata>Del Sol
Not including the other Miata's because they're in a different price category.
>>14146086
NB is literally better than the NA in every way
muh popups fags need to die
>>14146077
Why bother swapping a rotary into a Miata, when you can just buy an RX-7?
>>14146081
You show me an equivalent B series that makes as much power as a K.
>>14146096
B series sounds better
who cares
Im not going to get into an argument with fat chinks who actually think the del slow is good.
If it had 50/50 and better suspension than the miata you faggots would be using that to defend it. Holy shit this is some masive bait. Gran autismo playing 14 year old chinks who think rice boxes are actually good cars. Also i realize the s2k is a good car but i could have 5 miatas for the average price of a used s2k (about 15k where I live)
>>14146096
>buy rx7
Because the miata is way smaller,lighter, and benefits greatly from the FMR layout, you retard
>>14146127
This tbreyvh
Targa top is better
>>14147432
You're literally an autist if you think that
>>14147464
He's not
Targa top > soft top
But still
The miata is the better car, set up a coupe conversion with a permanent hard top and never deal with stupid vert bullshit
the only straight choice
>>14144495
I know you're trolling but I would love a fun del-sol over a miata. here's why:
>the owners don't pretend they are super cars
>they are cool looking
>they are different
>they are fun little track cars
>everyone owns a miata
>because I just don't want a miata
>both are cheap and I can buy both
>loving cars means you enjoy various types of cars
>>14147556
>you're trolling
When did /o/ become so much of a hugbox that any sign of an inflammatory opinion is thought of as a shitposting troll
>>14147556
So nothing to do with actually fucking driving the car? It's all theory, aesthetics, and a desire to be a special snowflake ?
>>14147569
>I'm going to pretend that the miata is so fucking amazing that there is no reason anyone would ever choose anything else
>not trolling
Okay faggot. When you make a statement implying that anyone who buys a car over the car you suck the dick of, you are just trolling. You know god damn well then answer is and always will be BECAUSE THEY PREFER IT.
>>14147602
What is your problem
>>14147592
Personal feelings are the only reason to buy a fucking car you cuck. Ohhh the miata is rwd!!! So what? Who gives a shit? OHHHH it's a convertible!!!! Who gives a shit, I don't want a convertible. OHHH DA MIATA HANDLES BETTER ACCORDING TO MY PERSONAL FEELINGS!!!! Again, who gives a fuck? I'm not a pro racer on a track. These are fucking STREET cars. Who cares if one pulls .1g higher. Or is SLIGHTLY faster 0-60?

ARE YOU SAYING
JUST BECAUSE
HONDA GAVE IT THE SHITTEST ENGINES
THE SHITTIEST CHASSIS
AND SEEMINGLY THE MOST UNSPORTY OUT OF THEIR WAY TO BE BORING TREATMENT
JUST BECAUSE OF THAT
DEL SOL IS BAD???
how do you even make a car with that short a wheelbase weigh that much with such a floppy chassis
Senpai
God damnit. God fucking damnit. He fucking bumped it at the last second.
I'd buy a miata. Only if I had brain damage.

Honda reliability, slightly cheaper
>>14154011
>cheaper
Nope
They're rarer and more than a miata
>>14144602
b series is pleb teir
>not buying a miata and putting a k24/k20 in it
Probably because they just happened across a good one when they were in the market for a car, and couldn't find a miata in similar condition/price.
They aren't terrible cars, I'd own one.
>>14144495
>what is brand preference
