I just said I know what they stand for. But why not VX. MX. or IX? Why did they choose DX, EX, and LX. Does anyone know? Reply 0 0 Echelon04 View Public Profile Find More Posts by Echelon04 View iTrader Profile Old

From what I understand, DX and LX where the original models, LX, coming before DX, then the EX model was added in in the early 90's. There were also variations like LX-i and Si, but the "i"'s which stood for injection or fuel injected where dropped on all models except the Si, which is why that still has an "i". http://hondafaq.com/Library/Articles...ry/Accord.html Reply 0 0 CivicsRdBest View Public Profile Find More Posts by CivicsRdBest View iTrader Profile Old

The 4 cyl mustang in late 80's early 90's also was an LX. Toyota used DX for awhile for the corolla. I don't know where they came up with the silly names, but I still don't think they mean anything. Like some companies use SE, but they aren't considered special editions whereas other companies make them special editions. I dunno.
