Which Del Sol to buy???

[x]

Hi all,

I want to get a Del Sol even though I have never driven one.
I was wondering which engine/transmission combination to look for.
I don't need the fastest car on the road but I don't want to feel like a
slug either.
Should I stay from the automatics? I will be using the A/C quite a bit.

Is the non Vtec also a 16 valve?

Also, how about the reliability, cost of maintinance/repairs of the
different engines?
Is there enough difference to let it be a factor?

Thanks,
Joe

Drive one first. I'm 5' 10" & felt like I was in a coffin! Much preferred
my CRX's & current Civic VX. My wife does miss the Del Sol, but
her sister bought it, & she has visitation rights.
