I'm thinking KX3 :)
<Possibly biased alert!>
Seriously, if they really want to build, and that's the most important thing,
then K2-them. But the KX3 has a number of bands and operating modes the K3
doesn't, and that breadth may be important to someone who wants to dabble in
both the legacy and newer aspects of the hobby.
If they're really anxious to make a big splash, go for the gold ring, and
{insert your metaphor here}, you might tell them about the K3 as well. They can
start with a K3/10 without frills, and add widgets to match their evolving
interests. The K-Line is unmatched as a contesting and DX station, should that
be where their fancy trucks take them.
