I'd tell him to have some fun and get a S2000. At 6'1 he may/may not like. Some 6 footers find the car too small, others say it fits like a glove.

Other than that, I'd pick the RSX out of the line up. You can make some serious power with them. Hondas are easy to mod and mechanics are everywhere.

Thank you guys. My friend ended up getting a tC with factory body kit and the factory tail lamp upgrade, a used one at a good deal.

I hope your friend did get a good deal, because around my area a used one still goes for almost MSRP

I'm not a speed freak myself, but for him, my guess is that he will want the TRD factory bolt-on supercharger.
