06's dont have the vsa turn off feature like the 07 and 08

the 08's have the red stitching in their shift boot unlike the 06 and 07s

from 06 to 08 the wheels got darker

thats it as far as i know....

Honda Civic Si - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Quote:
The 2007 model changes for the Civic Si include the addition of vehicle stability assist (VSA) (not included on Canadian models), darker silver wheels, body-color grille and deck lid spoiler, and a reversal of the red/black color scheme for the secondary gauges. Floor mats also have the Si logo embroidered on them. Honda has also increased the price of the Si coupe by $800 for the 2007 model year.

For the 2008 model year, the Civic Si received minor tweaks that include still darker wheels when compared to the 07, a tire pressure monitor sensor, a new rear upper arm that decreases the amount of rear camber, and a revised spring rate for the coupe (changed to the lower Si sedan spring rate). In addition, sale of the Civic Si sedan began in Canada.

I thought 06 didn't have VSA at all.

Anyhow, 08 = TPMS

I was hoping they would change the radio screen / text to match the change on the secondary gauges

Can anyone confirm this? I had not heard of anything other than TPMS, shift boot, and slightly darker wheels until now...

It's true. And I think there even might be a TSB for earlier models so you can take your pre-08 in and get the new arms.

Don't quote me on that though.
