When I bough my 95 Civic, it came with a Civic Badge and a EX-R badge I took them both off because I wanted a clean look no emblems, well I kept the H one but nothing else. Now my question is, I haven't seen anyone else with an EX-R, or haven't found any info on an EX-R. I figured it was just an EX and the Emblem was fake but I flipped it over and it said HONDA >ABS< SV4 don't know what it means but it is from a Honda. I asked a friend and he said that there are EX-R's but not in the US. I'm kind of confused here, do they exist? Do I drive an EX or EX-R? What's the difference?

Thanks

 

I have never heard of an EX-R... Ive heard of an SIR but not an EX-R

 

I have the pics posted on another site http://www.honda-acura.net/forums/at...&postid=376432 Hope that works

 

Man I have never seen a badge like that on any honda ever.. Thats strange.. Im guessing its a fake... but I maybe wrong..

 

it's not fake here is the back of it it says' Honda on it http://www.honda-acura.net/forums/at...&postid=376440

 

That may just mean that its meant for a honda??? I dont know I said I maybe wrong.. I know how to firgure this out.... please hold...

OK... I dont believe it but I found some.. They are from Mexico... I cant read what they say cause all the sites are in spanish.. (damn I should have paid attention in spanish class) They also made Accord EXR's and I dont know what else.. Now you can say your different... Thats the first thing Ive ever seen about them... I know nothing else about them though.. Damn learn something new everyday.. Check your door jams and see if you can findout where it was assembled at..

Could that be off a European Accord R?

Never seen that one before.

 

I believe there are Accord EX-R models in Canada - our version is the Accord EX.

I've seen some running around NY in the past.

What does the stamp on your engine block say?

 

I did find some websites in Canada that were selling Accord EX-R's...

*LOL* They also have EX-G's

 

Whats the spanish site URL? I have a friend who can read spanish, as for the engine it's the US EX alright D16Z6, also the engine bay says HONDA OF CANADA MFG
A division of Honda Canada Inc.

I live in canada and have never in my life seen an EX-R.

We have SIR's which are the equivalent to the si. But never heard of or seen EX-R.

 

the ex-r = civic type-r european market.

 

That badge looks like it's from an Accord. Up here(Canada) we had Accord EXRs from 94-97, it was the top model except for the V6.

 

Somebody probably took the EX-R badge off the Canadian 94-97 Accord and put it on the Civic to make it look cool. Thats all i can think of because i have never heard of a Civic EX-R.

 

Just go to a search engine and do a search for "Civic EXR" you will find a bunch of results... I could read most of them because they were in spanish I think.. You will also find a bunch of Accord EXR's also.. Try it.. I searched from google..

 

yes this is a real car.. I live in mexico andsee tons of them rolling around..

 

The "R" stands for "Rice". You own a Honda EX-Rice!

 

haha

 

no, but there is a EG EX-V (meaning sohc vtec, which was equivelent of USDM EX)

 

Ok then I have a Civic that came from Mexico, Canada, Europe, all in all it's still a Civic EX so I guess I have an EX and the EX-R badge will be long forgotten and I guess you really do learn new things everyday. Thanks to all who posted, maybe someday I will sell it and a loser will be all like wow a Civic EX-R?! Must be worth a lot!!

Too bad I cant figure out it's true origin.

 

EX-R - CANADIAN MODEL
