I'm thinking of buying a 92 2door accord ex and was wondering what the difference was between an ex and se?

EX is the "top" its got about 30 more HP duel pipes from the headres where as the LX and other sonly have single pipe from teh headres. the EX has moon roof, and IMO is just the better model.

There is more but its 4:50 am and I am half asleep to think.

Go for the EX. :thumbup:

SE is kinda the lower model...and EX is the shiznit like Jack said. EX's have Cruise too. I'm not sure if SE's do or not. I've got a 91 EX coupe and LOVE that thing.

How much are they wanting? Have you checked the quarter panels for rust in tha classic "honda rusy spot" (right by the wheel well)?

I think SE comes standard with leather, but I think it also comes standard with an automatic transmission. The SE also has the f22a1 if I'm not mistaken, where as the EX has the f22a6 which has a little more power. Ex models had leather as an option, and they were available in 5spd as well as auto. If any of this info is incorrect, please feel free to correct me. I think most of it should be deemed accuarate though.

SE is the better edition being it adds leather, airbags, bosse radio, abs, painted moldings to the EX's features.

Don't get the SE confused with the anniversery edition which is just a LX with painted moldings.

During the 4th generation, it went like this:

1990 - Accord EX was top shelf.

1991- Accord SE was introduced, and was a step up from the EX. The SE came standard with leather seating, upgraded stereo system, the first model to introduce ABS, and a more powerful 140 hp F22 vs. the 130hp version in the EX.

1992- There were no 1992 Accord SEs, the SE was dropped. The EX then became the top shelf Accord..benefiting from the 140 hp engine and four-wheel disc brakes with ABS. The EX however did not get the SE's sound system.

1993- The SE was re-introduced, and became the top of the line model once again. Standards included the leather seating, Bose stereo, ABS and dual side airbags. However, unlike in 1991, the SE and EX both had the 140 hp F22.


As for the 1993 10th Anniversary Accord being nothing more than an LX with painted moldings, that is incorrect... the 10th Anniversary also featured dual side airbags, leather, 4-wheel disc brakes, ABS and the EX/SE's 140 hp engine.

Any questions? :-)

i thgouth dual side airbags were standard 92 on>>>

No, dual air bags werent standard until the 1994 model year. 92-93 DXs, LXs had driver side air bags only. EX may have had dual air bags for the 93 model year, I forget. 93 SE had them without a doubt. If you notice, the dashboard is designed slightly different than the usual 4th gen layout to supply the passenger side air bag.

and they weren't 30 hp more...13 more like it>>>

No, the EX and SEs didnt have 30 more hp than DXs and LXs. Hp ranged from 125 to 140.

damn, I stand corrected. :fawk: j/p good info bro! I think the 93 SE coupe got a spoiler instead of dual airbags, and the 93 SE sedan got dual side airbags. Please correct me again if I am wrong. The 93 SE's also got some bad ass looking wheels too.

Yes, you're right. The Coupe got the rear spoiler with LED light rather than the dual air bags.

Yeah, but there were quite a few very nice factory rim choices for the 4th generation. I don't like the factory rims on my 96 EX at all, new rims are at the top of my list.
