The 2011 Honda Civic Sedan is available in five trims: DX, LX, EX, EX-L, and Si. models. The DX-VP and LX-S models are more of an additional package for the respective trims that add more features.
The base DX Sedan starts from $15,805 and in that price range, it has very basic specs. It gets 15” steel wheels, power windows, tilt-and-telescope steering wheel, and height-adjustable driver's seat. The DX model is so basic that it doesn’t even get a radio of its own, owners will have to install it aftermarket.
The LX Sedan amps up the feature list. Starting from $16.555, the 2011 Civic LX model add on a Cruise Control, Power door locks and keyless entry, and standard 16” wheels. The LX-S model further adds leather-wrapped steering, a rear deck spoiler for visual purposes, a 5-speed automatic transmission, and 16” alloy wheels.
Both the EX and Si Sedan are top-of-the-line models, The EX-L Sedan with a starting MSRP price tag of $21,955 gets leather seats with heaters, vehicle stability control, and XM Satellite radio as part of its standard features. There’s also a power moonroof available with the EX model, something that is not available to other models in the line-up.
The top of the line Si trim is every enthusiast's dream. This model gets a standard 2.0-liter turbocharged engine under the hood that offers excellent performance at a reasonable price. Furthermore, the Civic Si also gets several performance features in the form of limited-slip differential, stiffer sports suspension, vehicle stability assist, traction control, and standard 17” alloy wheels.

We Recommend
If performance is the name of the game, then the 2011 Civic Si with its turbocharged engine and sporty equipment is worth the money. But if you want something that will satiate your daily needs with ease and not burn a big hole in your pocket, then the LX-S Sedan is worth considering.
