Default 08 Mugen Si

So we just got one in at my dealership where im a sales consultant. I took it for a good ride and it seems like there is a BIG rev-hang problem has anyone else found this in driving one? I have also been contemplating selling my s2000 and picking this up...i can get it got cost which is 27740 plus destination and tax and all that jaz which would still be cheapers then the sticker it says...

What does everyone think about this car?

Don't care for it. Almost 30 grand but same engine and everything as the regular SI. I would never even consider trading in an S2000 for that! Not a fan of downgrading.

yes it might be a down grade...but my s2000 is a 01 with 78k on it...so its getting up there...i mean i do have alot of aftermarket on the s but a part out and a huge down payment could be a possibility...

78 isn't that much. Well taken care of I don't see why it shouldn't get at least another 100k on it. Guess I'm biased since I really don't care for civic's, but selling your s2k and putting down a huge down payment to drive a slower, unattractive, less fun car seems ludicrous to me.

Well if you ask for peoples opinions and you are asking if you should downgrade to a civic from an S2000 be prepared for people to not think it isn't the most brilliant of ideas. If your looking for more of a commuter daily driver car with room for more friends then I don't see why not.

Some people like to switch car every couple year. Do what you want, the civic will have more room, its also a good looking civic, but for 30k you can probably look for another car.
