hi guys, i need some info on 97 / 98 honda city variants. di kasi ako masyado familar with cities. particalarly 97 lx (?) and 98 exi. whats the difference/features, meron pa bang ibang model? thanks for any info.

The first lineup of Cities consists of the 1.3 standard model (no mags) and the 1.3 EXi M/T and A/T. When the 1.5 EXi M/T came out, the 1.3 EXi is renamed LXi, but all features remain the same.

Then came the Type Z in 98 I think. This one has redesigned headlights and tail lights. Model lineup remains the same until the 1.5 EXi is replaced with a VTEC engine, becoming the VTi in the process.

Hope this helps.
