I have both and the LX seems to push mee into the seat more off the line. Has to be my imagination because other than the VTEC the motors are the same. Why would there be any difference? If anything they should take off the same and the VTECoutperform on the high end. Did the EX sacrifice low end on the VTEC?

EX is a lil heavier than an LX if I'm not mistaken? (someone who knows back me up) that could be it

Yeah, the EX is much heavier, cause of all the added accessories like a moonroof

isn't the gearing also slighty different?

yes gears are shorter.

1st is shorter, and the final drive ratio is also diff.

so each gear is pretty much diff. cuz of the shorter first gear.

Actually the EX has the shortest of all the gearing, and then the lx and dx in the middle and the HX has the longest.

Sure...I have the DX, and i've driven an EX. I have to say I love my DX way more.

here's a spreadsheet I made showing how the cars are geared as well as what speeds they're going at a given RPM, you can also play around with changing tire sizes and everything
