I mean I wouldn't be that upset if I thought it was an Si and got an HF. *shrugs*

Only difference is the sunroof, however HF's never came with sunroofs, unless it is aftermarket.

Lighter chassis ftw!

It should be clairified that all Si's had "power" sunroofs, not the pop up manual style. By this alone, you can tell if the chasis is an Si or not.....it's that simple!
