I noticed that some civic hatchbacks are referred to as EK's is this an american trims only? Because I was looking into buying a Civic Hatchback and the only trims available are CX and DX, now im buying a civic in Canada. Is there any differences?

it's not a trim, it's the body style

4 and 5 characters on the VIN

ek is the chassis code for the jdm right hand drive 96-00 hatch back. Cx and Dx are the trim levels they vary with engine type and certain feaures like power windows etc. In the states and Canada you will find the EJ(chassis code)unless your are lucky enought to find the right hand drive(ek) in the states

Untrue. EK is the chassis designation for civic 3dr, 5dr, and 4dr models sold in asia, europe, australia, africa, and south america.
