Definitely not a type r, as said above only in hatchback and out of the U.S.
So no matter how you see it, it will NOT be "legit"
No need to get upset for people just pointing out what it is.
Just because it is not a type "R" doesnt mean it loses value.
96-00 civic has only two models that comes with a sunroof, Ex and Si, if you are not familiar with engines and engine codes, look to see if your rear brakes are disc brakes or drums. if it is disc, you SHOULD have an Si in your possession, if not you have a common civic Ex with little to non mods with a bunch of stickers.
Try taking some pics and posting it.
