thinking of picking up a EXR sometime early spring, really want the 96-97, but it's kinda hard to come by with the 5 speed tranny, anyway, what are the main difference????

Thanks in advance

 

please search for more info..

94 is obd1, the front end and back have little difference in term of styling.

 

The 94/95's have different door locks on the interior and they don't have adjustable intermittent wipers, either...

plus the skirting on the exterior is different front and rear and the bumpers have a trim indentation that the 96/97's don't have.

 

Also on the 97 only they didn't come with a power antenna. (Integrated into the rear window)

EX's do.

 

94-95 doesnt have that ugly black strip along the side like 96-97's do... unless you get black it looks bad and a pain in the *** to remove

 

Here are some differences

The tail lights are different between the 94/95's & 96/97's
OBDI (94/95's) v. OBDII (96/97's)
Power antenna (all 94's have it, some 95 do as well, 96/97's don't)
94/95's - no map lights 96/97's have them mounted into the head liner
94/95's don't have the "pass through" in the back seat for ski's or other long items

there are other's but my brain is tanking out on me -

time to get another beer!

I think your refering to the coping / door protectors.

EX's have them factory painted.

94/95 : Shock-absorber type rear trunk hinges - they don't intrude into the trunk compartment when closing the trunk

95+ the power window switches are actually better/more robust.

 

front and rear bumpers are different, different stock alloys (96-97 sedan wheels ), different front grills, 94-95 has an H on the hood

 

The 94 B1 motor had a black valve cover. changed to the silver in 95.

also, wasnt the cupholder lid changed in 96? i have seen 2 different lids. one that opens towards the passenger (94-95 ?) and one that opens towards the driver (96-97 ?)

yeah your right....the cupholder DID change in 96. I think the setup is alittle more intuitive in the newer style.

from what i understand, honda stoped coating the valve-covers as a cost-saving measure. I think all honda-cars: civics/integras/accords/etc stopped getting that coating around then ~95
