I finally ditched my Del Sol and I just picked up a 1996 TL 3.2 premium this evening. I pick it up on Friday. I'm not sleeping all week. 94k on the clock, it's in really good shape and everything works. I'm totally stoked. I'll be spending alot of time on this site now instead of solsociety

Welcome to AcuraZine, 1G TL Forum. Was your del Slo modded, un-modded? My buddy had a del Slo VTEC, sold it after doing sound, interior, body, paint (very nice, BTW) and rims because people kept hitting his front fenders, leaving fat dents.

~Cheers~

Yeah, the Del Suk, as I called it, was Modded with just about everything every ricer puts on their car. I bought it with all the mods, the only thing I put in it was A Lightened flywheel, and Stage 1 Clutch. I hated how harsh the suspension was, the sight of railroad crossings still makes me brace myself as I cross them. Shouldn't have that problem anymore. I'll get some pics up after I pick it up. Thanks.

Yeah, the interior looks like it's never been ridden in. Leather is pristine!

^ Get some Mother's conditioner to keep it that way. I got a bunch of little packets from the Ferrari or Porsche dealer (can't remember which one) but it's what they use. Have to say, my m8's leather in all his Porsches is so silky smooth... Like a baby's bottom. His Ferrari, too, but he rarely drives that slow POS.

~Cheers~

Great interior, still. Keep it that way. Lose the paint on the shifter....use paint remover, you will see a nicely chromed piece!
