I swear my car has the green tint of the 03's. I know all cars have it to a point but in my car its super obvious. It was built 07/02. Anyone else notice this about their cars? i went to the dealership around the corner & they had the vibrant blue one & the windows look exactly the same as mine.

all the Si's have the green tinted glass, heat reducing glass, it shows up pretty evidently against the silver colour IMO, but they all have it since 2002. Dont think the 03 is much different.

not sure unless they changed the amount of tint. A friend of mine has the white Si from 2002, I swore his windows were tinted (aftermarket) but they aren't they are stock tint but it looks even darker than mine for some reason. The 02's definitely have the green heat reducing tint to them, similar to the last generation Preludes. I haven't seen an 03 model up close yet though, they might have changed the windows slightly, unsure though.

I remember reading on the honda website that the '03 Si was supposed to have the heat relfecting glass as a new feature. Although, I know that the '02's do have some degree of heat reflection, so I guess the '03's have a stronger tint or something. Maybe that is why you can notice it more.

ahhh...vewy vewy inta-westing... :D
