Habanero vs. Electric Blue
Nice wheels 
Thats exactly what I would buy my girl if she would let me. It's such a nice car to drive. I sell Hondas so I get to drive them everyday. The car shifts better than any car I have ever driven. It's not super fast but feels fast because it revs high. Honda makes quality. They even honor thier warranty. It's crazy!

I came from a 06 Si in a black pearl. I luved it, but it was basicly a 2 seater. You couldn't carry any passengers at all. The fit anf fitment were WAY BETTER than my 06 MR. However, what got me thinking about the Evo was the power. While the K20z3 is an amwesome engine, it has not torque (like most hondas). I was facing putting like 5-6K for mods to my Si or why not tade it in on an EVO, which I did. I do miss the quality of the Honda, and to be honest that K20 engine with some race parts could be a screamer.
The head on the K20z3 is perhaps the best head ever on a production car. if I had $$ to build a dedicated racer I would most def get a 06 Si and strip it and build it, it would be the best fun to drive on the track. And lastly I've driven countless cars and the 06 Si the best FWD car in terms of handling. That car rotates like a RWD car. Again if you wanted a dedicated track beast that would be the most fun go with a Si...
But dont get me wrong I am totally satisfied with my MR. I just wish the quality was closer to the Honda.
p.s. tell your buddy to put his factory Si wheels back on they look way better than what he has right now.....IMHO....

Haha. I wasn't crazy about the color at first but it's really beautiful up close. Really grew on me. Hondas paint is only one level above Mitsu imo. Not saying much. They use an electrostatic bonding process. Paint in AZ takes a beating though...

i would avoid using springs on an EVO. my buddy Marv in Tempe tried some & said driving felt like a broken mattress!!!!!! if u want to get a lower stance w/out a compromise in ride quality, u need high quality coilovers (JIC, KW, Rocket Dancer, ZEAL, TEIN, Cusco). u drive a $30k car. don't b cheap & have it ride like a Kia...
