A Love Letter to the Honda Del Sol: Tim S. from South San Francisco

When it comes to the world of classic Hondas, few cars capture the spirit of fun and nostalgia like the Honda Del Sol. Tim S., from sunny South San Francisco, knows this firsthand. His story with his Del Sol is a mix of passion, hard work, and a dash of old-school Honda magic. So buckle up, because we’re diving into what makes Tim’s Del Sol journey so special.

Why the Del Sol? The Perfect Blend of Nostalgia and Style

For Tim, the Del Sol was the car.

“I was interested in the Del Sol because it embodies the perfect blend of nostalgia, style, and reliability that I was looking for in a car,” he explains. Growing up, Tim admired the Del Sol’s iconic design—the sporty vibe, the compact size, and, of course, that targa top.

Unlike modern cars loaded with distractions, the Del Sol offers pure, simple driving joy.

“It’s not just a car; it’s a piece of automotive history that I can enjoy every day.”

A sentiment every Honda enthusiast can get behind.

The Local Del Sol Scene: Small but Mighty

Tim’s area might not be overflowing with Honda Del Sols, but that only makes them cooler.

“There are only a few Honda Del Sols in my area, making it a rare sight on the streets,” Tim shares. That rarity adds to the car’s appeal, and Tim still finds plenty of enthusiasts to bond with. From classic imports to modern tuners, South San Francisco’s car scene is alive and well.

The best part? The shared appreciation for unique builds like the Del Sol.

“Despite the Del Sol’s rarity, I’ve found a niche of fellow car lovers who appreciate its design and history,” Tim says. Because let’s face it—when you see a Del Sol roll up, you have to smile.
