Thinking of buying an SI now!

06CivEXJon · 07-24-2006, 02:13 AM

After seeing so many SI's on the board i cant resist,now i want one! ill wait for the 07's to be released so ill be patient though once the first 07's come out ill wait perhaps a month or two for the next shipment. Hopefully get one soon,just dont know what color. I like Habi,GG and Fiji. Black gets too dirty,same with white and silver is well silver. I know manual to a degree,drove my friends 05 STI for a short period im pretty sure i can nail it down,love the sound the K20 makes!

You think white looks dirty?

06CivEXJon · 07-24-2006, 02:19 AM

I like GG,Habi and Fiji the most.

SiC17 · 07-24-2006, 02:23 AM

Put down your deposit now if you want one of the first 07s. For the most part, the 06s are pretty much spoken for... from what I understand at any rate.

**atruhondagrl** · 07-24-2006, 02:24 AM

Fiji and habi are sexy. Sis are the shiznit.

Fiji Blue is the way to go....just zainoed the car this past weekend and I'm playing for with sore arms and legs but the results are amazing...Just look at my avatar.

06CivEXJon · 07-24-2006, 06:22 PM

I might go with either GG or Habi. Since my EX is GG and i really love the color,as i do with habi,etc. What mods should i do?

***Janizary*** · 07-24-2006, 06:43 PM

As SiC17 said, get on a list now, or you may be waiting more than a few months after the release of the '07s.

**Silver8th** · 07-24-2006, 06:56 PM

I want an Si too, but it just wouldn't be practical for me. Higher insurance rate, less MPG, and more HP would= more speeding tickets for me.

***'06Siguy*** · 07-24-2006, 07:14 PM

I heard the '07 comes out in August. I would put money down now...like the others said. The SI's rock out...I highly recommend!!!

***Special Ringpop*** · 07-24-2006, 08:19 PM

I've been told more like December for Si's, and November for non-Si's.

I dunno if that's true though. I concur about white, I really don't like white cars, I think they look cheapy, and I've never seen a white car that looks good after a year (not that show room look).

I also heard MAYBE the Fiji Blue color and Habinaro color are axed for 07, as they were 20th Anniversary colors, but that's just a rumor. The Fiji Blue is a beautiful color.

I had a black Firebird, and while they look beautfiul clean, black is a swirl magnet, and gets dirty VERY easy.

You're wrong! Rallye red is the way to go!

06CivEXJon · 07-24-2006, 10:26 PM

What do you mean fiji and habi are 20th anniversary colors? i thought those colors as with all of them are all new for 06. 2000 SI's color was electron blue etc. No to rallye red,its too bright!,no to black (dirty too easy) mabe no to blue as well because blue really sticks out,no to white too. So either GG or Habi.

I don't know, like I said, that was just a message board rumor I heard floating around; I'm sure it's not true. Not trying to spread misinformation, just saying what I heard.

I don't think Galaxy Grey is going anywhere...Honda loves sending that color to dealerships, and selling them to people who want just about every color EXCEPT that one.

Blue really does stick out, and the Fiji Blue is an absolutely BEAUTIFUL color.

Habanaro Red I can see them maybe pulling (if they pull any).

Someone mentioned earlier that a green is coming for the Si this year?

06CivEXJon · 07-25-2006, 03:01 AM

Green?!? yuck,better not be lime green,ive seen a Scion XB green limited edition and blehh! looks like a christmas box..nothings wrong with GG its a awesome color its very stealthy,and actually now that i think of it its really hard to decide on a color,GG,Habi,Fiji or now Black. I dont mind if it gets too dirty but most likely it will get really hot in summer. (black that is)

They are making ugh some green for the sedan.. it sounded like a dark green.. like ughhh a mint leaf.. and I think you should make a spinwheel sectioned.. then spin away to choose the color :],,

06CivEXJon · 07-25-2006, 04:29 AM

Hahaha i havnt seen the green yet. So its going to be like a Mint Leaf Green Metallic? or something?
