I wanted the Si, but instead opted for an EX loaded with goodies. The Si being only manual nixed it for my wife, and the need for premium fuel nixed it for a cost-based purchase. The orange/red dash is too cheesey for me and black interiors are insane for us in the south.
but it is a neat car, I still like them and envy those who have them. As long as you don't think it is The Fastest Car in the World.....

oh, we know that they're not the fastest cars in the world... we (Si owners) just argue that it's pretty well up there on the 'FUN' scale.

def a fun great handling car, but out of all the small compacts that are made with sporting intentions, i will say that there are a few people who seem to purchase the si actually thinking it is a blazingly fast vehicle. i guess we have the fast and the furious to thank for that!

Ive had a 07 civic si coupe with navi for about 8 months now. I absolutely love it. handles so perfect, out of all the front wheel drive cars ive driven, it seems to have the least under steer. Probably do to the helical limited slip differential they put in the 07 and the incredibly stable body/suspension. i have noticed the rpm needle stick at high rpm when braking. im going to go get that fixed this week, along with the fuse in the sub i blew. The navi is awesome, impossible to get lost, it takes a little bit to get the voice activation down. you have to talk in a robotic sort of voice. once you get all your addys in the address book its great, can just say for instance "go home" and you get the route asap, then you can set waypoints to wherever you want to go on the way. anyway, ive test driven every car in its class, gti, cobalt ss, mazdaspeed 3, rsx-s. forget which others i drove, anyway, i think the Si is the most fun to drive especially for the price, and i think it will last much longer. some of the other cars might be faster, for instance the mazdaspeed 3, but thats the ugliest car on the road and isnt nearly as fun to drive. i hated the gearbox in it and cardboard like seats and uninspired dash.
anyway.. get a Si coupe, there awesome. oh yea, when you hit 6k rpm, its like a turbo kicks in and puts you back in your seat with a absolutely perfect vtec sound that just wants you to keep your foot on the peddle. loads of fun

Seems like everyone here is pretty happy with it. I am fixing to go test drive one tomorrow. I am a little tore between it and the Fit. But if the Fit turns out to be closed to or about the same price as the Si i might just go with the Si. I dont trust the "build & price" at honda.com anymore. once i got to the dealer and saw that the A/T Sport was $5,000 more then what it said on line, I was in for a sticker shock. How much did ya'll pay. I am in WA so I know the price will be different but it gives me a good idea what a price tag looks like

If you notice on that price tag, theres a market adjustment price on it. They add that because its a popular car and they sell fast. Its really very easy to get that off the price. Here in oregon the market adjustment was like 3000 extra or something. This is what I did, I told them i want an Si, im going to buy it today, but im not paying that market adjustment price, im only paying msrp for it. they will try to haggle and what not, just say well ive been to another dealership and there not going to charge me for the market adjustment. so in the end you will get it for msrp. My way i think is the most simple and gets to the point as quick as possible. So i paid 23,000 because i got the navigation , then i had fog lights and splash guards added which was like 650.
good luck to ya
