I'm looking at buying a Civic in the near future, and I cant find any information regarding the different trim levels. I can find info on the motors and trannys, but not on the option differences.

So what are the differences? I'm looking for disk brakes and cruise control. EXs have a sunroof?

And if it matters, I'm looking at the 4 door models with a 5 speed.

 

yes ex has a sunroof. none have disk brakes on the rear. only the front. the ex has cruise control. not sure about hte other trim levels. you can prolly use the search function to find out more. im sure its been covered

 

I searched for many words and found nothing (no results).

So I guess I want to get an EX model and swap in an HX final drive. Should be a comfortable highway cruiser with sunroof and ABS brakes.

 

my EX cruises on the highway at about 3000rpms going at 60-65...why would you want to get the HX final drive?

 

at 80-85 my ex cruises around 4k rpm

 

i never go that fast .

 

va driving fines are insane. 75 dollar ticket for not carrying a licence and a 900 dollar civil fine FTL.

Ultimate Highway Gas Mileage

And we dont have many highways with speeds that low. Usually 65-75 (or 80 if you're in a hurry and want to speed)

Lol @ custom trannies (no offense sir)... trannies.... transmission is not the first thing that comes to mind when I hear that word.

 

lol
I forgot to uncheck the "Append signature" box.

Back in the teggie days I loved customizing the gears in the car. I ended up daily driving an Integra GSR with a B16 case, B16 1-4, ITR LSD and ring gear, and LS 5th gear. It was "fast" and got excellent gas mileage.

If I had kept the D17, I would have probably got an HX final drive. I prefer lower rpm's at highway speeds as well.
