I don't think this car will be a collectable.....it will be(is) a joke.....There is nothing special about it other than Honda telling everyone that it is special. You can buy the same parts in a catalog and put them on another Si and have a Mugen civic.....There is nothing special, nothing that required any effort from the factory, nothing that requires any special effort from a civic Si buyer to make his car a mugen civic Si.......If you want to plunk down $30K+ and tell yourself it is special, that it is some rare collectable, then go ahead and do it....people lie to themselves everyday about all kinds of things.....If you want a nice car at a reasonable price, then go buy the regular Si and go for a drive......

difference: spoiler, exhaust, shift knob, lip kit, suspension, wheels... i'd say about 6 or 7k in upgrades.. which would make it worth around 30-31k.. i dont see why everyone's freaking out about the price tag. you'd be basically spending the same if you bought all the parts to make a replica. and they are limited so you're also paying more depending on the production number

I love how people keep saying "but it is going to be a collectable".

Yikes! Can you say major ripoff? That dealer should be beach slapped.

[NitrousG35]

Honda dealers are overestimating the market for these things. They are not Shelby GT500's that still command a $15,000 over list price. Shelby has a name and reputation, plus the cars are fast. The Mugen, while nice, is no muscle car or luxury performance car. You could get a G37 for that price.

Never fails to piss me off a little when I see the Mugen Si and the $30,000 price......I bet if you sit inside, you can hear the Honda businessmen laughing at you......Let's see, EVO RS, STi, 350z, G35, Mustang GT, 3 Series BMW, etc.....or a civic Si with a body kit.....hard choice........The car is soo damn insulting......Japan gets the R and we get this.....

But you get a free balloon tied to your wipers.

for some reason, the more I look at it.. the more I start to dislike it. Not because of the price because it's "exclusive" like someone stated and people who want it will buy it.

But the rear diffuser is looking like too much, the front chin spoiler is kinda really out there, the shift knob isn't THAT nice.. except that it has mugen imprinted on it.. and the wheels really look like a volk knock off.
I'm not sure about you guys, but I think it's more hype for the mugen fanboys than anything.

[BLU BY U]

i like the rear muffler alot. heres to hoping some aftermarket companies knock it off, haha.

[marc-o-lishuz]

Hmm... my favorite part of the car are the rims and the color. Other than that, NEXT.

Very true! And, it's gonna be a RARE Mugen Si made in the States
But, 40k...i don't know...Why not 30k?

[realxlai]

i wanna steal the wheels and shift knob......

So I go to Courtesy Hona to get my oil changed and there she is, the Mugen Si. I snapped some pics with my phone. Now I'm sitting here looking at her. She looks tempting, but for $35,000 I don't think I would get her. If it was an R or an RR then it might be a different story.

[Whocares05050]

Cool. Another mugen thread.

[Devin]

I know, I know, I'm on my itouch and I couldn't find the mugen thread I was looking for...

[linda!]

i expected honda to do an upgrade on the brakes for the mugen with that kind of price tag, i guess they didnt...

car looks sweet>>>>>
