Between 1992 and 1998, Honda produced the Civic / CR-X del Sol as a replacement for the CR-X. It is one of the most intriguing production models of automakers and has a very loyal following.
Several different trim levels have been offered in various markets. The most powerful version came equipped with a 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine that produced 160 hp, making it one of the first naturally aspirated production cars with over 100 hp per liter. This variant can also be optional with a limited slip differential to ensure that the front wheels do not struggle for traction.
As beloved as del Sol is, the owner of a specimen in the United States messed up the car’s design with some questionable modifications.

These images were shared with Reddit show that standard taillights have been removed in favor of the Infiniti aftermarket lights. The car was also equipped with a diffuser that, we are sure, does absolutely nothing for aerodynamics. Elsewhere, the car was equipped with a bodykit that includes new door covers, side skirts and bumpers. He is also sitting on a set of wheels that are not very favorable.
The strange changes continue at the front with a new hood and headlights similar to those used by the Nissan 350Z. Given how small the del Sol is, these lights look too big for the car and are at odds with the fluid shape of the roof and buttresses.
