Like it? Personally I do, but I have been a fan of the new Si sedans since they first came out.

The one big downside to this car is its price, around 30k I believe.

[Mad Mike]

I would buy one right now if I could.

[Mr. Clean]

it doesnt do anything for me. they're impressive as a vehicle, i just dont like the styling. im not diggin the 4-doors. thats just me

[JITB]

yep, but someone will buy it.


hopefully they will so we can keep gettin nice cars in the states.. :goodjob:

[Andy_013]

its $37k for a civic with a body kit and and bolt ons

[RUFFIAN]

I like it.......Just not at that price point:no: :2up:

[JDMjoe]

I think there awesome, i would love to have a fourdoor si. I think there are a bit over priced but i would buy it. :yes:

[wantboost]

[OneSlow5pt0]

looks alot like the evo X

[The Yousef]

i'd rock it.

It is supposed to be going for "under 30k" meaning probably around $29,999. That is what I read.

The suspension has also been redone, along with the bolt ons, bodykit and spoiler.

I agree somewhat, but I think it's still pretty badass that they're even selling the MUGEN edition of a car over here, state-side.


IMO i would'nt buy this mugen wing its ugly and dosnt really help out a FWD car..

And about this wing, I don't think Mugen would sell that if it didn't work.

Every piece of aero that Mugen designs is wind tunnel tested so it is infact very functional.........

Speaking about things you have no knowledge of is FTL.............

It'd be a disgrace if the aero parts didn't work, since Mugen's owner is Soichiro Honda's son lol...Plus, that's a really popular spoiler for integras when it comes to roadracing, so what does that say?

[Maniaç]

Looks better than the HFP package one.

It is under 30k
The suspension lowers the vehicle by 15 mm with highly aggressive spring and damper tuning for enhanced handling performance. The full-vehicle aero-package adds a front spoiler and sports grille, side spoilers, a rear diffuser and an adjustable rear wing. The lightweight, Mugen –forged aluminum wheels measure 18 x 7.5 inches and include high-performance 215/40R18 rubber.

[81911SC]

Thats plain silly for a Civic. Seriously.

[SRCRX]

I would buy one right now if I could.

yES, A SwEeT RIDE!!

[Jecht]

I like the new Si sedans, I would buy one if I could afford it. Then I would just put the Mugen bodywork on it. No need to pay 30k for a car that definitely cannot keep up with other cars that cost the same.

[UpSideDownDesi]

looks hella good and i am sure fun to drive too, but not worth 30k. I'll wait till i see one at a auction or one that's about to get repoed...then jump on it.

[JDMrequired]

yeah. we're lucky if we even get the same engine as JDM models.....

the next time honda wants to give us a sport model civic, they should put some better suspension rather than the mugen .5 in drop springs that consumers are paying so much for when they buy this

this is kind of a repost Coolcat, not exactly, but hey who's counting?

[dickdragon]

sorry guys, but it looks kinda like a srt4 to mee!

[chituntang]

It is just too expensive to be a Civic...

[v8killacivic]

the mugen civic si is sweet...but the price on it is too high for a civic

[allmotoronly]

Its pretty cool, but not as cool as the 2008 (or 2009 depending on the source) Civic Type R sedan.

or the mugen civic RR

[ulbsry02]

love the car, but i think they should have offered it in white that would be bad ass

[chameleon30038]

It is under 30k


Unfortunately your wrong...its more than 30k because we just got one in at work that we just did a PDI on. The sticker is more than 30K. You guys would not believe the cost of the parts individually.

[kppk1986]

ehhh a civic with some bodywork and light suspension mods is not worth over 30k. For that price id go for a sti.

[DarkMystic]

if anyone is interested, they're in the dealerships now along with the s2000 cr

[BlkCD5]

WTF is Honda doing?!?! the price of these new cars are ****ing disappointing. Its either the styling sucks, it has more power, but its to compensate for the added weight or it falls further behind from the competition. :(

[GaGen2Teg]

it doesnt do anything for me. they're impressive as a vehicle, i just dont like the styling. im not diggin the 4-doors. thats just me

yeah four is a no no to me well then again i say no to 4 doors even though i drive a IS

[GaGen2Teg]

cant there be a inbetween choice in the poll haha thats where it sits to me

[Kevykev]

Should not cost more than an SRT 4!

[toxxxic]

eh. i like it, its okay.

[Tree]

i want it

[07civicsi4dr]

i like it but like everyone else said its not worth the money i mean i was just thinkin about gettin the body kit for it thats what i like the most and the wing thats just not all that good looking

[Nissan Sean]

it looks alright but it need tthe power of an sti/evo to be worth it.

[khailon]

looks decent price to up there though

[Nikola]

I was hoping that they would add alot more power and not just add a couple of visual upgrades.

[coolcat]

I think the motors have been re-tuned, I could be wrong on that though. It is a bit of a dissapointment that it's going to be only slightly better than a regular Si sedan, for a lot more money.

[07civicsi4dr]

no motor difference just 18s instead of 17s the body kit the rear diffuser and a twin ring motegi track tuned suspension and an adjustable spring dampner and its lowered 15 mm

[JDMJorgie]

Good car but not worth $30,000 even with all the Mugen parts. I doubt that the suspension, body parts, and badges can bumb up the price to nearly 40k from a regular Si sedan. Although that Fiji Blue Pearl paint job does look sweet. Don't get me wrong, I'm stoked about Mugen officially teaming up with Honda; but it kinda takes away from the exclusivity of the company. I use to think that having a Mugen exhaust or even something as little as some reservoir covers set you apart from the rest, but now it seems as if any Joe can go out and get "Mugenified" and not even know what he has. I just think Mugen's luster will inevitably dull after this. :2cents:

[07civicsi4dr]

but the fiji blue is available on all the new si's so thats nothing special but the msrp on the mugen si is 29500 and yeah all the badging and the body kit and the suspension and the wheels and all that priced out at retail would bump the price up 8k if all purchased seperatly

[Mik2006]

i like it but to pricey im starting to get a liking to 4 door cars lately.

[k20siboii]

i would love to get one but i was impatient and got the si sedan instead -__-
but then again i love my si ^__^

[kppk1986]

i saw one the other day, and dayum that wing is so fing big. Ready to take off?

[IronEagle]

Yeah I am a hatch man. I'd still pimp the sedan though. :goodjob:

[josh green]

the car is not more than $30k maybe after taxes and options and ****. The only reason it would be in the 40's would be b/c a dealer is gouging the hell out of it. Its nice but more like a $22-25k price tag. $7k more and you got a CR!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Doppelgänger]

you know Honda is laughing at peopl buying theses.... on the way to the bank.


Over priced Civic...... thats all it is.

[MeanMugen]

those rims are gangster :goodjob:

[Siverprobegt]

Looks good,but overprice!!For that much ill get a sti,evo,or add some more money and get the bmw 335 :D

[Leekor12]

over priced!!! looks better than coupe imo though

[1000cckiller]

looks alot like the evo Xno it doesnt

[1000cckiller]

Looks good,but overprice!!For that much ill get a sti,evo,or add some more money and get the bmw 335 :Dwhatever you do get rid of that probe.

[Kaiser]

I'm still getting over Si's as a Coupe again, the last Si coupes were not terribly pretty, these look alright (although I see them literally everywhere) and I just feel like something's missing without an Si Hatch. The new Type-R turns me on all over though.

[aneel]

not worth it for the price... but it looks pretty nice..

aNeeL

[nvmysrt]

i like it....i seen a acura csx the other day.....they look good in person.

[SPOOLIN]

im gonna go look at it today, we have one in rome.

[Boosted FC]

There is one at Curry Honda on Peachtree Ind.

[Gutling]

looked at one right next to a regular si
si - 22k, mugen - 32k
for 10 grand, you could easily make the regular si eat the mugen

what is nice, for 36k -
s2000 cr (club racer), lol window sticker had a warning that the tires may not last 10,000 miles. factory drag radials. but no ac/radio :( but that thing rocks, ha ha i almost thought about getting it but kinda impractical since i do not seriously track race so dont need a expensive car with no amnemities (sp)

got one of each at my new job, grainger honda in sav

yeah but you cant make it look just like the mugen version AND Out handle it for 10 grand or should i say 8 grand because sticker price for the mugen civic here is $30,500.

[JDMirza]

not worth it for the price... but it looks pretty nice..

Yeah, I wouldn't mind picking one up if I had the money. Loving the wheels.

[VooDooXII]

I don't think it's anything special.

[six7teen]

such a beautiful car!

[nvmysrt]

the list of cars u can get for 30k is full of too mnay really really nice cars, to settle for a civic...

yea...our local dealer has a fiji blue one....30k.....thats a bit much for a civic...thats evo, sti, 350z, and S2000 price range....

[chelezookie]

i like it. i looked @ one at the dealership last week & think it's damn sexy.
kinda wish the wheels weren't 18's, though. but that's just me. :]
