Hi, I just picked up a 91 Civic hatchback a few nights ago. I had a Yaris hatchback for the past 4 years . Before that I had an EJ coupe w/ LS swap. Needless to say I've been out of the Honda camp for a while. It feels good to be back. Anyway I was just curious what the main difference is between the three trims available. I know the SI comes with the sunroof, tach, nicer seats, larger rims and brakes. Mine has vinyl seats and black bumpers and a drivers side mirror, no passehnger mirror, it was also originally equipped with a 4 speed manual. Which trim do I have? Thanks

 

std.

 

DX - blah
Si - yay

STD - totally different issue :p


and i'm gonna go with it is a DX.


edit: or he ^ could beat me to it.

 

std only came with 4speed and DX is 5 speed sometimes with an automatic.

 

see, i dunno civics. but that would mean std is lower than a DX? I always thought DX was the bottom of the pile for everything.

 

I guess DX was the bottom of the barrel for 92-00. But now that ef8 89 mentions it, I guess i do have an STD (Civic lol) cause the car was originally equipped with the 4 speed manual, the previous owner swapped a 5 speed in there

 

si= heavy.

I would never get an si unless I wanted a stock crx si to roll around in. if you plan on doing anything to the car the extra weight really kills the whole it being a ef and super light thing..

 

LOL! really? the sunroof only weights 90lbs. and you're only talking a difference of about 200lbs. give or take if it's a 89 si, or not.

 

Come on now? Really? It's still lighter than most post 92 models,

Youre correct

 

if 200lbs is not a big deal to you then I see where your coming from. but to me 200lbs is HUGE.

 

if weight is so important to you, i hope you drive a crx hf

 

lol, thats why Im selling my 89 sedan and just picked up a 88 dx. I know it weighs a little more then the hf but most of that weight will be dropped anyways. shooting for 1950lbs with me in it.
