Last week, Mugen presented the new Type-RR Experimental Spec at the Tokyo Auto Salon (TAS) to promote the new Type-RR. The car has been specially equipped with an aluminum hood, carbon fiber front panels and a K20A engine with 260 bhp. The theme is extended to the interior which gets a thorough carbon fiber treatment and slim Recaro seats.
The Type-RR Experimental Spec also features a Intelligent-Tire Condition Monitoring System (i-TCMS).
Overall weight is reduced through a the aluminum hood (4.6 kg savings), as well as the new titanium exhaust system (7.6 kg).
Purely a showcar, their are no plans to produce the Experimenal Spec, although several of its components might be offered by Mugen to the Japenese domestic market (JDM).

Not if you drive the correct way instead of having that "gangsta lean" like most honda drivers do.

Meh, if I was rich I would get it too. People waste their money on uglier cars such as the Rolls-Royce. At least this would be faster, cooler, and a right hand drive.
