Its been awhile.... Mugen Civic

Hey It's been awhile, since Ive made a thread on here. I lurk around from time to time.

Some of you may remember my 08 SSM Fit I had for a year and a half. I traded that in this summer for a 08 Mugen Civic Si. Just figured Id post up some pics....

The fit....

08 Mugen Civic Si

I don't think 08 Mugen Civic Si come with Navigation system. It had to be upgraded. 08 Mugen Civic Si is a little bit pricey and it comes with only one color, Fuji blue.

Mugen SI

How much did you get it for? I remember seeing one when I was buying my FIT. $34K before taxes. I hope you paid less than that.

I think you can still get a new 08 Mugen Civic Si for around $24-25K.

Mugen Civic is one sick looking car - makes a regular Civic just look blah! Super nice car and you know that anything with Mugen on it just makes me so happy!

197 BHP. 08 Mugen Civic Si has only wheels/tire, suspension and body kits upgrade, no engine upgrade. That is why not too many people buy it? The same HP as standard Si.

The only thing I don't understand, why they left the sunroof in it. Too much overhead mass as this is supposed to be more race oriented than the normal Si (isn't it?!?!). I mean look at the CTR here or any R model released, never had a sunroof as they raise the CoG by a good margin.

Still a nice car and for quite a decent price, any plans to do a front end swap to the more agressive look of the FD2R?

The ONLY way I would buy one is preowned. Props to you for scoring a great deal. I love the way it looks, and the wheels are nice. Just be sure you lock that thing up hardcore. A lot of people like stealing thosing things.
