just wondering whats the main difference between ek gli and cxi

and also which 1 has a tacho. in manual i mean.

cause i seen a few manuals without a tacho and just thought it was weird

and if i was to buy a ek manual it'll be weird driving it without a tacho

This has been covered a number of times (so try a search ;)). The cxi came without a tacho (which you tend to get used to - just listen to the sound of the engine to know when to change gears).

cxi = poverty model (no power windows etc and has no tacho)
gli = power options stock and has tacho

both have same engine.

I know I'd rather have power options.

For a standard Civic, and even one with a few mods, drums on the rear will make jack all difference.

That said though, the power windows are good to have :thumbsup:

Gli has bigger brakes than the CXi
front are bigger and also it gets rear disc brakes..
Gli gets power options and tacho cluster..

CXi has none of the mention above..
CXi has smaller front brakes than the GLi
CXi has drum brakes instead of disc.
CXi has no tacho cluster

vtir is too expensive and all too high kms

im looking at GLis with around 70,000km and they're around 11k for a manual which is alright

1 even has leather interior. but im not sure if thats seat covers or honda original option.

doubt GLi even had leather as an option.
