i Dont know if youve been listening to anyone here, or if youve had a look at the model list which as been posted twice, maby the vti-r is a little to expensive, but its really the only option if you want to keep your standard engine while still having a fast car.
The vti isnt a powerful engine, its non vtec its rated the same as a cxi (cheapest, less options), and gli (few extra options), at 88kw for the EK. The vti really only has a couple of extras on top of the gli.
Once again vti-r (different engine to the vti) is the only option for a fast car unless...
1. its unafordable and not an option
2. you have changed your mind, and are now happy to have a weak engine.
3. youve changed your mind and want to do an engine swap later
4. you wanna go turbo on the stock engine
We need to know what your after, you say you want the one with power but are choosing a model which lacks in that department, you realise this, but no longer mind, correct?
The cxi is the lowest model, gli is the step above. The gli has a passanger airbag, rear disk brakes, and was offered with both power windows and manual windows. (none of which come with the cxi)
The vti has power rearview mirrors (somthing no one really needs), and a sunroof if im correct.
If you want your car to be fast, but cant afford to get a vti-r, id do as i did, and go for the much cheaper gli or cxi, which are lighter, and save up to swap in a b18c ($5000-$7000?) which would shit on a vti-r and probably work out not too much more expensive.
