Default How can you tell?

This may seem like a really stupid question to some of you, but i hope somebody can help me.

I recently got a 1988 Honda CRX from a relative. They say it is an Si, but i am starting to wonder. I was wondering if there is any way to tell if it really is an Si. The only label on the back is of course the huge "CRX" and a "16V" on the top right corner. So i am starting to wonder if it is really a Si or just a DX. If anyone could help me it'd be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

I just ran downstairs and checked:

1. The VIN actually has a ED9 in it

2. It looks like it has drums for the rear brakes

3. Yes, it has a sunroof
