The 1995 Honda Civic


When the sun is shining, a convertible is one of life's more delicious automotive pleasures. In the dead of winter, on the other hand, even a well-lined convertible can seem damp and cold.



One compromise for this classic ragtop dilemma is the del Sol, Honda's entertaining little shoe box without a lid. With its removable targa roof panel, it supplies plenty of open-air motoring, with a substantial weatherproof environment for off-season cruising. Available in performance levels ranging from good to gee-whiz, the del Sol offers relatively inexpensive fun in a Honda package.



Honda originally called this car the Civic del Sol because it shares a number of components with the popular Civic family. However, for 1995, it's simply the del Sol, as Honda attempts to give this car a separate image.



It’s no secret that Honda boasts a reputation for combining a variety of virtues into a single package. Since its introduction, in fact, the Civic has been a multi-personality machine, and the latest versions do nothing to tarnish that tradition.



Careful engineering is the key: A company that earned its stripes as a motorcycle manufacturer understands the need for light weight and optimum efficiency. Hondas product-planning side has been equally successful, specifying those touches, both large and small, that mark the Civic as a quality car.
