    Kung same price lang naman mag VTi ka na, more bang for the bucks. Better engine 1.6L vs LXi 1.5L, VTi has VTEC, power antenna for VTi and color coded door handles.

    Ask the EK boys here (archie123456789) since la akong experience sa EK Civic. Kung meron mang fuel economy discrepancy I wouldn't be surprised if its insignificant.

    hindi ganung ka significant ang FC ng both.
    i think LXi consumes around 13 kpl pure highway, 10-11 kpl/mixed and around 9-10 city.
    ganun din ang VTi.

    sir tidus and sir 1d4lv maraming salamat po, vti na lang po kukunin ko.. sabi po na mga friends ko mag lagay na lang daw po ako ng air filter like k&n para bumaba ang consumption..is this true?

    natawa ko sa EK boys :bwahaha:

    anyway, concerning the FC of both... tama po hindi nagkakalayo yung dalawa. masmatipid lang ng konte ang LXi sa VTi in city driving pero when it comes to highway driving, halos same lang. mas matipid pa yung VTi ng konte...

    kung budget ay 300k... go for the VTi na talaga... vtec pa.

    with the filter, yun din naririning ko na mas matipid yung nakaKnN. better mixture daw kasi. cant be that sure pero one thing i can be sure of... sarap pakingan ng air filter and vtec... lalo na kung patay yung sounds

    kung same price nga ang dalawa mag vti ka na lang may vtec power pa. kung fc ang concern mo, and city driving mas matipid nga talaga ang lxi compare sa vti..

    sir interesting po talaga yung KnN filter and vtec sound... kaso hindi ka na fuel efficient kung babanatan mo yung gas pedal to reach the vtec. its takes 3500 rpm just to open the vtec of the VTi

    LXi 2000 po ang gamit ko... yung time na binili namin yung oto (brand new), hindi namin kaya afford yung SiR.

    yung 99-00 global look na kasi ng EK yun, since SIR yung sumikat na variant SIR look na ang naging tawag... 3 sila nun, Lxi, Vti, at Sir.... yung Lxi ko dati 10.5 to 11 km/l ang kuha ko sa city driving, kung sa performance sa SIR ka na kaya lang mas mahal pa ng 60k siguro... FC at price naman kasi ang kalakasan ng Lxi eh...

    it depends naman sa pag gamit mo, kung tipong gusto mo ng powered engine mas ok ang vti. im also using lxi and sa performance wala ako masabi basta sundin mo lang pms, kasi more on city driving lang ako. 9-10kpl pag city driving and 10-12kpl pag highway yung sa akin. hindi mo naman kelangan mag SIR look pa, kung vti or lxi lang ride mo hindi naman magbabago performance nun.

    sir, performance in terms of what po?

    kasi yung binili namin yung oto ko, my only option was the LXi variant. susunod na gusto ko yung SiR pero kapos sa budget kaya LXi kinuha namin. ayaw ko yung VTi dati for reasons i forgot. hehehe

    performance in speed and acceleration... normal na 1.5 lang yung LXi. nothing really special.

    performance in terms of durability... panalo! wala pa ko naging problem sa engine ever since.

    ang usual FC ko po is around 12-13 km/l mixed. erpat driving nga lang. not exceeding 2000 rpm on shifts.

    with a 300K budget you can buy a 99 civic Vti plus meron pa baon for a little repair for your unit..ok din ang Lxi in terms of FC but if you're after power and "porma" might as well go for the Vti...either way what unit you choose be it the Lxi or Vti...."you'll never go wrong with this choice of vehicle"...good luck
