Used Car Of The Day: 1994 Honda Del Sol
I don't think we've had a Del Sol featured here before, and not only that, but this 1994 Honda Del Sol happens to have been converted into an electric vehicle.
An EV conversion Del Sol? Either pretty cool or an abomination, depending on your perspective. I lean towards "cool" but as someone who remembers when this car was on the market, I understand why some folks would be upset to see a Del Sol lose its ICE powertrain.
Beyond the EV conversion, there's a long list of work that's been done -- such as new brake pads and rotors. And things the car might need, such as a paint job. Read about these details here.
The price is $4,500 and you can find this one for sale in New Jersey.

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

Honda technicians called these 'del soak' because the roof came with factory built-in rain leaks. This car was the beginning of Honda's long downhill slide.
if its between the crusher and still running as BEV, I'll take BEV every time.
