01-05 hatchback differences

[Gabe419]

Hey I was planning on buying a hatchback from this generation. But I was wanting to know if anyone knew the major differences in them from 2001 to 2005. Any new features or problems I should be aware of when searching for specific years?

So what are the differences then? Also what about the 2004 and 2005 versions.

There is an 04-05 Si hatch.

Check out the Si section...

The 2004–05 models received minor revisions. Cosmetic changes included revised headlight (dual bulb setup) and taillight designs, standard side skirts, and an option for a HFP (Honda Factory Performance) upgrade. The suspension was updated with a change from 4 lug to 5 lug bolt pattern, a larger rear sway bar, and a change from 15-inch wheels (195/60-15) to 16-inch wheels (205/55-16). The interior received more silver accents in place of the chrome ones (the lock switch)
