I am possibly purchasing a 1995 Civic 2 door coupe which was made in Canada.
How do I tell whether it is a lx, ex or an SI?
The seller states that it is an SI version from Canada. The Title just says Civic-cp. It does not say ex, dx, lx or si.
It does have a DOHC VTEC motor.
Thanks,
Craig

 

check for a sun roof that is the quickest for me to tell if its an EX unless it has one of those pop up roofs that I see some DX's with. If it has a DOHC Vtec then it really doesn't matter what model it is.

 

as far as i believe.... they only made the si that year in hatchbacks....

look for a sunroof

 

The trim levels a badged differently in Canada. i believe its Us/Can dx/lx Lx/Ex Ex/Si Si/SIr. Correct me if im wrong. As far as telling what model it is. The sun roof, Power windows/locks, Size of the front brakes,options on the dash board, Cluster, Door panels an ex/si will have tweeters in the door from factory.

 

Are you allowed to buy a car across the border and have it pass on U.S. soil?

 

if it came factory with the b16 DOHC, then its the SiR in canada. the Si came with a d16

Supposibly yes. I have seen some Acura El's around here(Orlando,Fl) with state tags, as well as out of state tags. But still Us tags. Thats why i want to go to Canada.
