Default Whats the difference??

Hi Guys,

I'm new to this Civic game. I just bought a 2000 Civic CXi Sports Hatchback. Its Canary Yellow and I love it. Its gonna look HOT when I'm finshed with it..... I've got a couple of plans for this car. Anywayz I was just wondering whats the difference between a "sports" civic and a normal civic? Is it just the "sports" sticker (badge) and the colour (canary yellow)? Or is there something else that makes it different to other CXi models? I just wanna know coz a got a couple of people i know that are hate'n on me coz my car has sports and theirs doesn't....

Does anyone know what the difference is?

Thanx

we dont have those designations in the states, but chances are, its got a more powerful motor and upgraded brakes and suspension. do you know what kind of motor it is?

Well, here in the U.S., SI stands for Sports Injected, so it could be somewhat the same.

I'll have to check what engine it is, and all the other stuff you guys mentioned. Does it help if I say I'm from Australia?

I'll post some pics soon (i'm at work and don't have any on me right now)...

here are some pics of my new car.... it's still stock as a rock. I've just changed the whole system inside to a new Pioneer system, and next i'll be putting some rims on it. Maybe white 16" or 17" rims.

But this is what it looks like for now....

The only civic i've ever seen was an EK (like yours), was a limited edition in the UK there were the Honda Jordan F1 team edition. Was nice came with a standard b16a and 170BHP, You can see in the bottom pic the destinctive black and yellow leather seats. Too much yellow for me.[:'(]
