Default 48k FN2 CIvic Type R

I had a visit from Mugen Euro today, they drove down in this:

More info here - Press release.

260bhp - with every Mugen part fitted and displacement increased to 2.2!

I had the opportunity to drive it too, disregarding the price tag - bear in mind this is the only one in the UK - I must admit its a amazing upgrade to the FN2 model; but then it should be for the pricetag!








Look out it dwarfs my s2000!

TBH if i had £48k a Civic wouldn't be on top of my list. It doesn't matter how good it is. Probably why they never sold them all in the first place.

You'd have to be seriously brainwashed by the Mugen hype to consider buying that for even a millisecond

You would have exclusivity simply because everybody else has more sense

I just don't get the Mugen thing. If parts were reasonably priced for good performance gains then maybe............

Some nice cars available for that sort of money. I'll pass.................
