Had to go to the honda dealer at State College today to get the civic checked out for something and while i was waiting i was walking around the lot and saw they had a mugen Si


wat was the msrp like 30?

i dont even remeber wat my honda dealer at home wanted but i remeber it was rediculously close to a brand new s2000


anyway they wanted 22.9 for it. bran new


for u guys that dont know

mugen civic si

Yeah...what a flop this car must've been for Honda. Sad and unfortunate as I was actually hoping it would do well and bring about MORE Mugen inspired Hondas.

The Mugen Fit can be bought in parts...but I'm sure the failure of the Civic Si Mugen had Honda re-work the Fit.

Ah well... I bet insurance is MORE on this Mugen Civic Si versus the S2000.

yea its all behind the kids with civics. if anyone here bought that and left it outside they would wake up to see it on blocks lol


they should have made a special edition mugen s2000 like in grand turismo

msrp was around 30k. 2 real problems held that car back:

1) PRICE
2) POWER.

they absolutely should have given the Mugen a serious power bump. 240hp minimum would have been key.

i agree.. not nearly as agressive as it shoudl have been...it was a glorified si... with a mugen lip kit and suspension... not really all mugen in my books....

aside from being underpowered, it was a target for thieves right from the getgo. most of the first dealerships with them had them sitting on cinder blocks the day after -.-

the problem for the mugen civic was the same problem that has plagued every honda sports inspired car since they started making them....

over priced and under-powered.

that is what doomed the nsx, it is what eventually doomed the s2k, it is on the way to dooming even the Acura RL, and it will doom anything in the future Honda tries to make to tap into the sporty car market.

yeah a 4 door civic, cool......... NOT
