I'm familiar with the Del Sol; I destroyed one's rear end when it stopped short in the middle of an intersection (my car's bumper was scratched) so for practical and safety reasons I recommend the 4-door Civic. But it's impressive that yours never lost value! If I wanted a fun sporty cheap 2-seater, the only choice for me would be the Mazda MX-5. For $2.5k you can cruise over to the autocross track with the top down, beat a Corvette's lap times, and then cruise home all without breaking 30mpg. (Okay, so maybe you'll need either amazing driving skills or race tires to beat the Corvette, but it's doable ;))
