A 1200 will have fender badges that say "Honda Civic 1200" and a 1500 will have fender badges that say "Honda Civic CVCC". Then theres also the fact that the 1200 and CVCC Civics share practically no body panels. You can't interchange body parts like the doors, fenders, or hoods between them because the CVCC is a bigger car.
    FAIL. You can exchange body panels. Only fenders and hood don't work b/c the CVCC has a longer nose. It' no difference than a Cadillac CTS vs a CTS-V --- or a Chevy Silverado 1500 pickup vs a Chevy Silverado 2500. They are BOTH Silverados --- just different engine option. The CVCC is a HONDA CIVIC that has a CVCC engine. It's NOT it's own model. It's a CIVIC.

    No need for the harsh attitude man. I think we are in agreement here. While they are both Civic's the people on the old school Honda forums (that I was posting on back in 1999 BTW) refer to the CVCC equipped cars as "CVCC's" to differentiate them from the 1200's. While it may not be a seperate model the CVCC designation is used to seperate the 1500 cars from the 1200 cars. Thats all I was saying. No need to get pissy.
