The US market gets a new souped up Honda Civic with MUGEN parts called the 2008 Honda Civic MUGEN Si Sedan. Making it’s debut in mid-October this year right before the Tokyo Motor Show, the specially kitted up Honda Civic Si Sedan comes with a MUGEN track-tuned suspension that was tested at Japan’s Twin Ring Motegi circuit.

Other than offering aggressive spring and damper tuning, it lowers ride height by 15mm. Wheels are lightweight GP forged aluminium wheels measuring 18×7.5 inches which weigh 7.7kg a piece, 27 percent lighter than the Civic Si Sedan’s stock 17 inch wheels.

The 2008 Honda Civic MUGEN Si Sedan done up in nice Fiji Blue Pearl paint will be produced in a limited 1,000 unit run for the 2008 model year and will go for less than US$30,000 with a full factory warranty.

    18″ wheels lighter than 17″ stock wheels?..wow this civic will rock. The rear disfuser and spoiler wings reminds me about EVO…Hei i saw that MUGEN batch at kedai ‘abang’ last night is about RM 89 if not mistaken…huhuhu….

    Actually, u can order the entire kit from US and install onto localised Civic. U can use everything for the RHD model.

    Nice color! Rear lamps look very sad, droopy-eyed, pretty nonetheless. Not too sure about the lawnmower front bumper though.
