EX or LX

One of my coworkers is going to buy a 03 civic. I have a 01 LX and my other coworker has a 03 LX. We are both happy with our cars but we don't really know if there are major benifits to getting an Ex over the LX. The biggest ? is do the sun roofs leak? Let me know any complaints about either or benifits of one or the other. Thanks

The sunroof is awesome! If there were any problems with the sunroof leaking it would be repaired under warranty, but I doubt they have that problem very often.

Color matched trunk and hood trim also.

I would just get the ex just for the abs brakes. ABS brakes are a must for me or anyone actually. I've had some bad experiences with car without abs brakes.
