In Canada the Si trim became known as the SiR for the sixth and seventh generations, and the Si trim was equivalent to the USDM EX and EX-L models.

For the Japanese and European markets, the Civic Type R was adopted as the high-performance variant of the Civic. In North America the Type R name has never been used for Civics, and the Si/SiR badge continues to signify the highest performance trim.

Most Si civics in North America Are manufactured in Canada or mine was anyway......so i thought it would be cool to put the SIR on it and it is really the same as Si...and of course K20 is the engine. Also i wanted it too look normal to people unfamliar with car stuff and to them look like a regular tag....

My job causes me to keep it simple and discreet, so if i had to use my car for a work job the personalized tag doesnt stick out to others outside the car world.

damn, honda has done an excellent job with the civic. people crashing or losing their Si's and still getting another after. i don't think for me that would be the case
