^that's a bad S. And oh yeah Liquid, I'm not bashing the civic by any means just the price. I have a damn fine eg sedan myself, I'd venture say one of the cleanest in town,pretty quick too it might even give your S a run for it's money.

They had my friend Joe's Supra there for sale (it was traded in by the lady who bought it from him) and they claimed to have built the supra from the ground up and spent $100,000 on it, but then again they were selling it for $53,000... Everything was 100% lie that the guy was saying over the phone.

putting $8000 in mugen parts on a Civic is like polishing a turd.

I wasnt bashing the car either! i love the mugen civic I just think it costs too much! IMO mugen parts are already too epensive themselves!

Agreed. What does a Civic cost? Like 18k?

I was agreeing with you , and pointing out how someone said that the package isn't worth 8k. 8k in Honda parts, no. 8k in Mugen parts, yes.

I was saying "oh no not this thread again" because could go door-to-door across the country asking people if they would buy this car, and you would only find 1,000 people that would say yes!

Damn, that does look bad when you quote it lol. MSRP of individual parts wise, yes. Worth wise, it's up to the buyer.

LOL, you could probably build a "mugen" civic sedan for cheaper than buying that new. There will probably be lookalikes all over the place in a few years, once the price comes down on the base models and kids scoop them up to swap and stuff.

Stock S2000 looks better than that, IMO.
