No, it is not a rebadged 96-00 Civic four-door. In Japan, it's rebadged on the Domani, which is based off the civic chassis. The EL is sold in CANADA, not Europe. The Domani is sold in Japan and Europe. It's also called an Izzuzu Gemini.

Interior, amongst other things. Like I said, it's based on a civic, but it is NOT just a civic 4-door. A Honda Civic Domani is just like a Honda Civic CRX Del Sol. It's based on the chassis.

This is a little blurb about it if you don't believe me. (and no, I did my research elsewhere, this just reiterates what I have said).

ya but its still 90% civic. The chassis remains unchanged, exept for the front and rear end. The interior is different in only the climate controll.

Unfortunately, it doesn't matter what you think. It's a variant. You're basically arguing that it's the same thing because it looks like it.

"Oh, it's exactly the same, except for the wheels that come with it, and the steering wheel, and the fabric patterns, and the cluster, and the cliamte control, and the center console, and 30% of the overall body. Other than that, it's exactly the same"

It's a variant, plain and simple. It is not just a civic.
