Could be down to wheel/tire size.
CX/DX generally have 13" steelies, while the HX came with 14" Enkeis from the factory which weighed ~11 lb.
Here's a calculator application which some of you may find helpful.

If anyone has the whole gamut of gear ratios for HF, VX, and HX trims I'd love to have that knowledge. I've glanced through the service manual for the 96-00 Civics and was unable to find it.
