Basically it was the replacement of the AE92 SX. Same engine and a few other mild differences.


The mild differences are basically cost cutting measures (deletion of power mirrors, rear headrests, alloy wheels, centre console and trim...) in order to be more competetive in the sub $20k sports hatch market dominated by the Suzuki GTi and the Charade F2.

The common misconception that the GTi is a better equipped or more advanced car than the SX has led to many used car buyers being ripped of paying substantially higher prices than an SX issued at the same time or a year earlier when in fact the SX retailed for at least a few thousand dollars more than the GTi. Frankly, the only justification I can think of to pay premium for a GTi (comparative to an sx) aside from low kms and condition is if it's a rare charcoal grey one.
