Engine wise they are the same. Exterior wise, different wheels, mirrors, bumper grill's, spoiler, no rub strips.
There are probably more but they are the basics.

Different suspension maybe? Although I know the SXi is slightly more 'sporty' than others.

This is the Twinport and non-Twinport models, which strictly speaking isn't a different engine. I think it's to do with the manifold.
Most, not all post-2004 cars will be Twinport I think.

The older 1.4 z14xe feels a bit quicker.
I think the newer Twinport ones have better emissions are probably a bit better on fuel.

As Joe said, not much in it speed wise, but more efficient on carbon output and fuel input.
