hi there,

it's just a stock Si with a mugen kit and rims
from the lack of information, im judging from the hp that it's stock

so...

... it's called research. it's already being sold =.=
probably sold out already
< $30,000 USD
it's not bad but i wouldn't buy it.
more info : http://www.rsportscars.com/honda/2008-honda-civic-mugen-si-sedan/

so...

if i were to get an civic si and add on mugen kits and rims? would it b more than dat price??

honda...
civic..
get a SI w/o the fancy kit and do it up urself

okay basically it's exterior mods budd.
but if you wanna buy a MUGEN Si then do so.
but yeah you're budget is no where near that if a 99" SiR was too expensive for you.

if i remember right it cost 36g for all show usdm mugen si.. i would say not worth the extra money

well...i would finance if i buy from dealership....

well...im just wondering, i wanna jus know more dats all...
i lyk comparing cars from one another, dat way i would be able to know more..

its got so called "tuned" suspension and exhaust from mugen, if you want to look for a tuned car, tune it urself, don't get it factory tuned! tune to your own standards! but yeah, i don't think its worth it to buy this, i agree from the above, get a stock one and tune it from there

lrn2spell or this is going into Fight Club

fitedat fkuing nagigga

But shit man, that is too sexy to not consider if the price is under 30k.

Are they coming to Canada though?

most likely all sold by now. maybe a few left because from what i have been reading on different forums, some honda dealers are desperate to get rid of them
1 got vandalized at a dealer lot i know that

hurts seeing a honda like this

Although I know that's a real event..that picture looks somewhat fake LOL although it probably isn't...any how....if ur gunna get a civic mugen si...just get the civic SI and change the kit to whichever....i dont think that's a large difference..it's just mostly appearance.

Ouch, that pic does hurt.

Who is mini tofu? could it be tofu's prodigy son trying to learn?

only 1000 units of the 2008 year to the states, none in canada unless imported
imo, waste of money unless im a honda collector lol

for 36k puts u in a range to buy alot of nicer cars
heres a few that are much more of a better deal

IS250 base trim..
Audi A3
VW GTI fully loaded
Miata
i believe the mazdaspeed3 is similar to the 36k
Subaru WRX and ave CHANGE(take to JYC)

Also...

Please learn to type "WHAT" instead of whas.

oh shit grammer police!

el o el........... civics hahahahaha for 30grand hahahahahahaha

GG

i seriously considered a CSX-S........... but i couldn't justify myself in paying for a civic that retails for 30grand

i could go buy myself a DUCATI 1098s and its just like i bought a Ferrari.......

sorry ronald sorry afa XD

but they are good cars nonetheless........ just that i wouldn't pay 30g for it personally?

or if u wanna talk about cars..... spend 30g on a used S2000 for gods sake...........

30G would buy u Kalson's S2k and enuf for u to add a widebody kit n a GT wing i bet XD

with 30G u could easily consider a used but very nice sports car that u thot u could never afford.........

hell S2000s are like 50g brand new apparently lol

grab an S2000 while there's still lots out there.

production ends next year. or so they say.


just tune your own civic si.

it's too bad this happened to that mugen si but if you look at the original pix before the theft, you'll notice there wasn't even locking wheel nuts on the car. not that locking wheel nuts would have made much of a difference, but they could have at least made it a bit harder to steal than that. as for the shift knob, Richmond Honda (for the most part) immediately stores all Si shift knobs because sales man are idiots (leaving cars unlocked, unattended) and everyone is a thief. the badging costs barely anything to make and at least they didn't take the suspension, rotors/calipers (5-lug conversion yo!), etc. Shit, they could have taken the whole trunk with not much effort...

S2000's are usually a special order at Richmond Honda. There was only 1 located at our compound when I left, since there aren't too many people that are willing to buy the car anymore.

and unfortunately S2000's have the reputation of being a girl's car now...

i hate that steering wheel hahahaha

looks like it belongs on a boat or a space ship =O


becuz the S2K is a puny asian car.........
i feel quite cramped in that thing =P

yah i kno it can be fast, but its like drivin a kart hahahaha especially when the top is down

and when MSRP starts at $50Gs........... i wouldn't buy it lmao

space ship by far.

But it's the drive-by-wire that pisses me off...

Actually I've had no problem with the drive by wire....... Feels pretty much the same to me, its quite responsive.....
But yah actually considering that all the smaller sized sedans available now civics are just as good as an RSX now I guess.....
So I guess its cheaper than a brand new rsx-s which makes me kinda want one.... N since its got a diff as well...... Makes it probably a pretty good handling car....
