Is a honda civic del sol 93 a good race car / sport?

No. (Well, except for maybe the B16-powered models.)But it looks reasonably sporty for people not in the know.That being said, if you throw enough money at it, almost anything can be a good sports car. And since it's a Honda, it'll have a fairly well-established tuning aftermarket, so it shouldn't take too much to make it faster.THAT being said, there are plenty of other choices for fast cars that probably won't cost much more.

If you like hondas you'd be better off with a civic. They're mechanically the same, but they're lighter and have a stiffer structure which helps handling. Those removable tops hurt the chassis stiffness quite a bit. Even better - try to find a clean CRX - even lighter still!
