Saw the New SI - Edmonton no pics :(
Driving in rush hour traffic and saw a "Alabaster" Silver SI in the rear view mirror. This thing looked hot - rims spoiler and all. It slowly caught up to the 4km/hr I was doing. Took an exit lane left, I could hear the tone of the exhaust from two lanes over, it sounded sweet. Coming from an EL Driver, who expects alot more than just a vic, was very jealous.
Sure they will start popping out very soon all over the place.
First SI I've seen though..Edmonton wise.

I work at the local Honda Dealership and have to say that it sounds better than alot of aftermarket exhausts that I've heard.
Love the feel of the new body styling, almost like you're sitting too far back, but you've almost got MORE control. I love it.

Rep Power: 264 you guys should just head on over to the dealership and check out the new si's instead of looking at them driving by. anyways, like gearbox said, the seating position is too far back. but i guess this helps with the weight balance.

did you see the si after supercharger? 270 hp is not bad for a single bolton.
