The V6 engine is superior if you value power and the ability to pass, but
only came in 4 speed auto. IF the V6 transmission was replaced by Honda,
consider it more worthy. There was a TSB on the transmissions as they had
some problems. If the V6 never had the transmission replaced by Honda,
beware.

4 cyl = 150 hp... adequate power
V6 = 200 hp. more than enough, Great passing power, floor it and you are
gone

The highlights....
LX 4 cyl = power everything, all the essentials
EX 4cyl = upgraded cloth compared to LX, moonroof, power everything,
basically everything you could want, I think this came with keyless remote
(not sure on security)
LX V6 = no moonroof, smaller wheels/tires compared to the EX (i think)
Keyless remote
EX V6 = probably comes in leather, I have only seen them in leather, but
they might come in cloth. moonroof, power everything, basically everything
you could want, security system.

Now the styling did change slightly over those years, but they were
cosmetic. I think they changed the wheels as well. Mechanically the same
vehicle over the years.
