Question difference between se and dx (96-00 coupe)??

can anyone tell me the difference? i've searched and couldnt really come up with much. i'm looking to buy a 99-00 civic coupe. i would like to get an si or even an sir but i don't think my budget will allow for it, so i'm looking to get a dx or se model. any info is appreciated.

I think that is correct too. I have a 2000 SE with auto trans and A/C. Manual windows, manual mirrors although it does have power locks/keyless.

My 99 EX has power everything including heated mirrors and cruise. I used to have a 99 DX which had nothing at all.

My 2000 SE came from the factory with AM/FM only and no spoiler. It does have ABS though.

Shaaron, welcome back!
(I know there's one guy who is verrrry happy to have you back here ) <--- EDIT: Ooops...
Hope you had a good winter, and that the car is still running well.
Hopefully we'll end up at one of the meets this summer!
Anyway...

thanks for the info, i think i'm gonna stick with the se, because the insurance is a fair bit more on the si. imo not worth it.
thanks again
