LOL!!!

 

the Si came with an oem strut bar that the non si's didnt, and those tweeters by the mirrors. those weigh a ton

 

Different body and different motor.

 

Remember that there are always certain changes over the years too. Wiring, plugs, slightly different parts, etc.

All those little parts add up.

Civic coupe weights:

DX
1996: (not sure)
1997: 2324
1998: 2342
1999: 2359
2000: 2359

EX
1996: (not sure)
1997: 2507
1998: 2504
1999: 2513
2000: 2513

HX
1996: (not sure)
1997: 2352
1998: 2361
1999: 2370
2000: 2370

Si
1999: 2612
2000: 2601

Remember that the base weights would not include optional parts. It wold only include standard parts. So I didn't include any optional parts unless for comparision against standard parts on another trim. I put a list of optional parts for all coupe trims at the bottom.

Here's what they got that other Civics didn't (or you could click the link in my sig to compare):
