    Negative. Look at the headlights and front grill. It's a Mugen something. Maybe a one-off Accord?

    You do realize that is a race engine and at that setup would need rebuilds after almost everyrace.

    He's just sick and doesn't want to cough all over people. It's a common sight in Eastern Asia.

    Yes but once de-tuned, made more reliable, and if the numbers looks anywhere in the ball park of the high 400s, you've got yourself a winner.

    Eventhough it's a repost, it's still impressive to see this Mugen Legend running on V8s. A really cool car I believe.
