Damn.... Hope no one buys that exhaust now.

 

Honda released pricing for it today

 

30k, just as excpected....How many are dealers getting each?

 

probably 1. only 500 being made.


I bet some of them will sell for $40k lol.

 

So.... This car is made in Canada, then shipped to Japan for the Mugen parts to be installed?
Hahahahah!

Thats crazy. 1 per dealer?!
I wonder if Coggin Honda will put accessories on theres to boost the price more? I know itll deff have LoJack

 

What??? They are built in Canada, i thought forsure these would 100% Japan....Thats lame.

 

im not sure where its being built.

 

Current Si's are US of A. Thats why I hate on them a lot. And Im an ass
Even the motor is made in the USA. Says it on the window sticker. :-/

 

Yes, i know... I work at Honda ;) What im saying is i dont know where the Mugen ones are being built yet.

 

Chris, will you be able to drive the one you guys get in at your dealer?

 

My god Honda Fit owners whine alot.

 

I know that also ;)
Just throwing out facts for others.

 

probably the usa, like the other civics, and then the mugen parts are slapped on her in america after importing them, as it makes no sense to build then send, then bring back.


its not going to be that hard guys, its a body kit and wheels and an exhaust, and the interior has a badge and shiftknob.


Thanks jdmchris for posting up the prices, i saw them earlier on edmunds. Waaay to overpriced. For 26k i'd take it, but not for that. Its just not worth it. all this justification for having a 'dealer' warrantied civic with mugen parts is lame...how many folks have really suffered reliability issues by adding mugen parts? how many people who even car about mugen car about warranties?

The car looks sweet, and performs a bit better than a stock si, but because of the way it looks, people will be expecting a lot more when they see you, and when you can deliver on outright speed because you are no more faster than your buddies si, we'll see how the huge hole in your wallet makes you feel better about your 'exclusivity'.


Shoulda seen the guys on 8th gen civic.com. What a bunch of misinformed people! talk of a short shifter kit, mugen air box and intake and how the car was probably underrated as there is no way that it still has 197 hp. Ha ha.
