That looks evil. Once again another car we will never have. Not the biggest fan of that giant air intake stickin out the bonnet. Holly Crap 4litre V8 engine. Thats no Honda its a FORD/HOLDEN.

I would of thought that you would put the logo of the car where the mugen is and then mugen elsewhere.

judging by the things i can see through the grill.. the engines mounted longitudinal? (is that the word)
so it must be RWD

yeah i think thats somewhat similar to stock from memory... i think headlights are stock, front bumper the side air intakes are smaller and no silver lines, but thats about all i can see... have to check the brouchure again
