just wondering... why did honda name the civic trims differently in canada and the us? ie Canadian SiR = US Si , Canadian Si = US EX, etc..?

haha! and besides... i guess canada has an edge over the states... we have the "SiR" ... yes, that "R" adds 10hp right there! even better hp booster than squash scented airfreshener [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG] and coupe "Si" with D17s hehehe

after seeing how canada responded to all the terror in the United States,
Honda probably thought that the real "SI" was too much for u guys.

UHHH.

shows that people in the US thinks everything is centered there..

actually we're the ODD ones... Honda of America names the trim here differently than everywhere else...

everywhere else its SiR.. and here we got Si

why do Honda mess with the trim names so much? probably something to do with the market.. probably to go along with other US manufactures since they use LX, EX quite a bit.
