never knew it has such a cool roof reclining mechanism, never was a huge del sol fan but can see it's appeal now, it's a cute little sports car
That is SO WILD...I remember first finding out about this and wondering exactly what it looked like while...transforming(?)
🇯🇵 Honda, always way ahead of the game in terms of mad inventions
I quite like that roof top mechanism but the beeps would drive me crazy 😝
This is oddly satisfying. I wouldn't buy one and I feel like the roof system is bit clumsy, but that's also what's so neat on this car and makes it unique.
Edit: It's like having roof elevator / container for your roof.
what I learned from having a del sol. It's better on the handles to close both at the same time.
id have a del sol just for that roof, id be using it every excuse i could lol
antsolja I was looking to buy a Mazda MX5 at the time, but then I came across the Del Sol and when I found out the roof was like this I was hooked, took me a year to find one with the spec I wanted, and I do use the roof as often as possible! ...I like how people stop to watch it lol
nice!
i wonder if its possible to modify it to go faster, it looks super cool but it takes a long time
antsolja it's not too bad, think it's around 50 seconds if you're ready to unlock the middle latch quick
yeah thats doesnt sound too bad actually
Hi Thanks for up loading and being a fan of the Honda Del Sol!
Can I ask where you can get the billet center roof lock lever?
If you made it can you please advise how?
Many Thanks!
Wow.. Owesome mechanism 👍😉
Damn this song still bangs....
Good job nice video!
It is epic what they did in the late 90 s.
Late 90's? Del Sol Model Started from 92 !
@@TRusty394 i don t know what i should write late 90 s or 2000s???
@@webberalex9533 You should write early 90s
im just thinking how many points of failure are on that roof mechanism ???
yes
Its a Honda, so there are none
A acquaintance had one. Real cool. A real cool Targa
This is art
Debe ser de los mecanismos más espectaculares...
how do you get the reciever in bootlid to come out amd grab roof. the reciever in the bootlid that im working on isnt working . is there a button other than whats on dash right hand?
Amazing
90’s Japanese cars are the F’ing best
That is absolutely bonkers.
Will the trunk open like that when you want to just get into the trunk or dose it open like a normal trunk?
Yes it did mate! Very little space as you’d expect though!
How much heavier is it than the manualtarga top????
Wow, that's complicated. What's the average life expectancy for these roofs?
Had but had to sell it 😭. The car had so much character. Put some basic alloys on and fitted a kandn air filter. Was enough with the v tec. V nice car
Where can I find the roof
which models have the auto roof?I want to buy a del sol when I move to Germany but noone says if it's auto roof or not... :-/
I believe the electric roof was available as an option on all models so some have it and some don't, mines a VTi and a friend has an SiR both with the transtop roof. (Mines the one in this video)
Not available as option in ALL markets.
The SiR is an import model (Japanese designation only).
SiR is also a designation for getting the top spec Engine (not other options). You can have a base Delsol (no other option) but fitted with the B16a and it will be designated SiR.
Electric roof available only in Japan, Europe(UK, Germany, France possibly other European countries) and South America (not sure if all or some south american countries only).
Electric roof never available in North America (Canada, USA, Mexico).
Electric roof never available in Australia
Cuando se le daba mas importancia a las cosas hechas a mano cada una de esas puertas fueron ensambladas por personas como nosotros
Have just inherited one of these, can anyone tell me where the back window switch is please ,
rear window switch should be on the driver's side door next to the lockout window button
Reminds me of wacky races
Very Jamesbondish. Needs some missiles in the hatch.
Is that a mod tho?
They didn't do that back in 95?
I always assumed it was manual targa top.
They did you could buy it with a electric roof from the factory.
It's either a roof you have to manually take off or the electric roof as shown in the video.
I personally have the manual option which is way faster to take off since the roof doesn't really weigh that much
coupe transform like optimus prime
This was one over the engineered car but that what Honda is famous for and what a great fun car just as good as any mx of the time. It's such a shame Honda did not compete with the mx5 as we could have had some great 2 seater convertibles. Wish honda we get back into niche cars
S2000
My ex girlfriend had one. Pretty fun to drive.
I can’t find a car with the transport 🤦🏼♂️
Not bad, but I like the Del Sol's Grandpa better.
