    LOL,
    LX is carbed and LXI is EFI(fuel injected).
    plus EFI had sunroof, rear sway bar, and tape holder and optional armrest, don't confuse with SEI arm rest. LXI armrest was diff.

    I'm sorry but that was some funny shit...it doesn't have VTEC, he's giving you shit, it's actually powered by a fuel injected 4.6 liter, don't listen to these clowns.

    Don't listen to these guys... lol. Alex and Michael have it right.

    Dx & Lx = Carb with 98hp
    Lx-i & Se-i = Fuel injected with 110hp(86-87) or 120hp (88-89).

    I think, and I could be wrong here, that the sunroof was an option on 2dr Coupes like mine, and standard on the 4-door Sedan. Or, maybe it was an option on anything under LXi and under, and standard on the SEi?

    Coupes weren't available with sunroofs. Don't know why.

    4door LXi had standard sunroofs from the factory.
    2door LXi had an option for sunroofs

    SEi did not have a sunroof from the factory and it was installed from the dealer. You can see the rubber weatherstrip from the sunroof weatherstrip is on the outer rim of the car while the LXi weatherstripping is on the moonroof and the roof edges are smooth. (Anyone get that?)

    Differences in LX/LXi
    -tape holder console
    -optional armrest (non leather ones)
    -bigger brakes
    -rear 13mm Sway Bar
    -14inch saw-like rims
    -fuel injection is the man big one

    hope that helps!

    MiltownSHO's DX Hatch had a sunroof. Don't know if that's going to further confuse anybody.

    He had a coupe. Damn you!!! I think that sunroof was aftermarket too. All coupes I've seen do not have factory installed sunroofs. They're all aftermarket.

    EDIT - You made me search for pics of MilTown's DX COUPE. Bwahahahahhahaha.
