depends on what you're going to do with it, and whether you want to swap a different engine in or leave the stock one in it.

hf or si. i wouldn't go the way of the dx.

hf is lightest, great for swapping another motor into. the si is the fastest (allthough not THAT fast), so that would be ideal for the budget minded person that's not into swapping. the dx is more complicated...its lighter than the si by a little, but it's not as easy for swapping a motor into...so you might as well go with the hf anyhow if you are swapping because it'll be cheaper and lighter.

HF or Si only. I bought a DX back in '99 without knowing as much as I do now. Get a HF if you want to strip it down, and make as fast as possible. Get an Si if you want a little bit of a nicer car to tool around in. I also tend to favor the 90-91 models rather then the 88-89 ones.

get an HF, and if you do you might as well get an 88 or 89. **** needs to be light. if your not a racer get an Si, if your a 'show car' kind of person (includes ricers) and dont plan on swapping motors get a DX...

i have a 88 HF...

Si has nicer interior, better suspension and wheels, more power... easier to do engine mods and swaps...

BUT

It has a sunroof and much more weight. I like my DX. It'll be so freakin light when I'm done with it!
