Japanese tuning company, Mugen Motorsports, has waved its wand over a European specific model for the first time in the Honda Civic 5-door hatchback. Revealed at the Moscow Motor Show with cosmetic modifications only in the form of a body kit closely resembling the previously released Honda Civic Mugen RR from last year, this concept is a sign that Mugen is testing the waters of the old continent. Surely, with the Honda name gaining popularity across Europe, hoards of Honda tuners will be lined up to tap into the European market, and who better to test the waters first than the one with familiar ties to Honda Motor Company.

super cool
Moscow Motor Show? My how times have changed! I mean who would've thought the Russian economy would've bounce back so quickly 5, 10 years ago? Amazing...
Btw, Mugen power ftw!
so i watched the last nights fifth gear nd they said that honda should work some mugen magic towards europe nd well they did... its funny but well dont leave america out!
That is F***ing nice...I hope to god they bring it to Canada, it would sell.
BAWWWWMMMM Bah-bah-bummm. BaaaaaAAAAAWWWWWWWMMMMMM-MUM-MUM-MUM-Muuum-muummmmmmm. Is this turbocharged? *t'hisss*
Nahh, its probably naturally aspirated...while the sound of a Honda I-4 can't be as mean as an American V8, you should give it credit. Performance Honda 4s have a pretty mean growl to them as they climb the rev range. You're confused with the lower economical offerings.
It says cosmetic only and as far as I know the type r doesnt xist in 5 door so only 150h.p or so. Who wants to look like that only be beaten by any tough kid on a billiecart?????
never liked the new civic...looks fat. its just wearing a nice dress...but it doesn't look sexy.
Come on. It is only a front wheels drive. Need a rear wheels drive at least.
honda its asiparted always ... but I prefer the previus edition whit independent rear suspension
