Why did Honda discontinue the Del Sol so quickly?

ITS SHIT

This. Another fine vehicle (prelude) ruined by FF. It could have been a serious competitor to the miata.

With the S2000 on the way and the Civic Si and Prelude to fill the gap in the interim, Honda didn't see much need to continue their passably selling roadster, especially one that needed a hard look at it's engineering in order to stay competitive.

Nothing personal m8. Just good old FF shit posting is all.

Probably his ass
But they are well known for having the flexiest Honda chassis. I am too lazy to google it for you but when I was a faggot who read HondaTech regularly, I recall a meme about them not being able to open and close the doors with the top off, without it not fitting or visibly flexing. No idea how true that is tbqh
So was it intended to be MR?
>>15321837
No it's a fucking civic
>>15320689
You obviously have never driven one.

>implying you've driven one
>>15322319
I've owned more cars than you've driven son.
Tbh the car isn't shit, but it feels bigger than it is, and it is limp as a wet noodle.
It's nice having the top off, but the process is a pain after a while. You would be much better off with an integra imo
>>15322342
Well I haven't driven that many cars so I'm not all that impressed.
>>15322375
I've owned roughly 20 cars so far.
Do you not love cars?
>>15322399
Do you not love yourself? Going through 20 shitboxes sounds like torture tbqh
