So if someone is dumb enough to pay $35k for a civic with a body kit, they are a dumb ass. No extra HP, not even a aftermarket header, just a basic ass SI with limited production numbers

    no header
    no extra hp

    Once again it's not just about performance.

    Dude you dont know me I guess, if you saw my show civic you would know I am not all about performance, TRUST ME, BUT if I am paying 30k+ and a 5K limited car mark up, You bet your ass I want something over a standard civic besides a body kit.

    LOL, I seen your car


    The main point I'm trying to make is performance isn't the only selling point for cars (which most people don't get). People assume every car in the same price range should perform equally as good when that's not the case. This car was design as an collector's item, and not as race car. If Mugen really wanted to release a car to battle the Sti's and Evo's, they would of released this
