Models of Honda Civics

[gianthobbit]

I love Honda Civics and I want to purchase one for my next vechicle. Problem is the is so many models I dont know what one is which, there the LX, SI, HX, and many more. Where can I go to learn about the diffrent models of each. I like the sporty version of the Civic, it has two doors and a rear spoiler, what model is this one?

Thanks

well the Ex has the vtec motor and mostly all options and can have the ghey Si spoiler on it if u pay for it...

THe Si which is the one ur talking about sporty is the one with the wing and shit and has the DOHC b16 in it...Which is 160 hp and like 15.6 quarter mile time or somewhere aroung there...WHich useually sale around 8k and up unless u got a guy that is in bad need of money...

Lx has some options lil 1.6 non vtec motor that pushes around 106 hp and 103 tq can have options added on side also...

Dx is same motor as LX but no options besides sometimes A/c manual windows and all that good stuff...

Hx is pretty much close to the Ex is like 127 Hp and shit and has all the options but only comes in 2 door i think...

I say i left some out but o well...Anyone else wanna add anything go right ahead or correct something i miss typed...

I advise you do some research online before buying a car based on the spoiler it has. You can learn alot by doing some searching on this forums as well as others. The information above posted by rushb18 is good but you might want to do some comparisons online regarding different models and years to find which suits ur needs best. A car can always be modified to your liking after being purchased.

i thought the hx was the vtec economy car and had like 92hp... i didnt think it had 127, i thought that was the ex

[rushb18]

No every spec sheet ive seen it says like 127hp or something on it...But i dont know...Look it up im sure it is...

Actually, the HX model had a 115hp VTEC engine, and (I think) Honda's CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission). There's one just four miles from me for $6k, and I might be buying it next week. If I do, you'll know because I'll replace the picture in my sig But yes, it was the big gas-saver. Rated at 34mpg in the city, and 38mpg on the highway.

the HX has a Vtec-E motor. E for economy

[V T E C H]

yeah, the HX has the Vtec-e, and it said somthing about lean burn so it makes better gas milage. it gets 117 hp.

[rushb18]

Yea 117 for the HX and 127 fro the Ex thats what it what well 10 hp off close enough for having all this shit in my head...

You guys answered some of my question but not the big one. What web site is good for comparison betweent the models, were can I learn about all the models. I not choosing a car based on its spoiler but I like the look of that car can you point me to a website that will give me more detail.

[rushb18]

In yahoo's search thin gor anywhere type like 2000 civic Si specs or something and it should take you to details thats basically all you gotta do...

like 98 civic ex
98 civic lx specs or whatever thats all i do for a quick search on specs and all that other shit...

doign that would be faster the waiting on us to reply to u for a site to find out info....good luck later

[gianthobbit]

Ive already done that, you can search for hours for a good website, just wondering if you civic lovers had a favorite site. Guess not

[gianthobbit]

BTW the SI is the hathback, not the one that I was looking at. The model I was talking about is a two door, smaller car, with a small spoiler on back. Still not able to find it online.
