    Actually there's quite a few recalls out for Sols, and the weatherstripping WAS recalled... depending on your VIN you're eligible for it. My 94 DOHC VTEC had the stripping replaced under recall before I bought it. They also recalled A/C compressors... first thing I do whenever I get a new car is call the dealership with the VIN and see if there's any recalls out... you'd be pleasantly surprised to know what's out there for them.

    Fuck stance. Stance is for kids in skinny jeans with Justin Beiber haircuts. You don't need stance when you got swagger.

    yeah, it had nothing to do with poor late sales figures (25,000 sold in 93 vs 5,000 sold in 97) and intense competition from the much better-selling miata ... cmon john, do you seriously think they stopped making the car because of a leaky top and "faulty fog lights"... especially when the MY96 and MY07 sols didnt even have aux?

    anyways, sols are notorious for the targa leaking. the seals were redesigned in 95, but the issue wasnt completely resolved. i have a 94 VTEC model and luckily i haven't had an issue with my seals, knock on wood.

    as for hondabond... ive heard it works, but the idea that it was designed for the del sol is just silly. its primarily a gasket sealant.
