MP,
Althought the engine and transmission where not changed with the Ci model in 1993, there where signifigant other changes.
Including:
RF remote keyless entry (Alpine)
R134A non CFC AC fluid (will never have to be retrofitted when we run out of the old CFC stuff)
ASC+T as standard instead of optional +T
Fold down rear seat (this does not open to the trunk, and will not help you with ski's, that's what the ski hole and sack are for)
Gathered leater upholstery
Chromed metal interior door handles and seat belt escuchions (stronger than the plastic)
And the most important for me, because otherwise my GF would not ride with me, DUAL AIRBAGS

5.4 liter engine and 5 speed automatic came in 1995
Steptronic transmission and OBDII came in 1996

DSC??
remote head key??

Any additions/corrections appreciated.

Also, any window sticker or brochure info appreciated.

James
