agrree with you there that was my reason for purchasing a honda, but your says in s2k for me if i had the money i would buy the civic RR cause its 4 door!
but i dont have 60k and prob could never justify it on a car anyways:thumbdwn:

still the RR looks the bizzo............

and for anyone with spoon socks that say they won't fork out $60K for the RR your in denial...........hahhahaha.

it may not have function but it has plenty of form

I think if you viewed it as a collectors item (only 300 being made supposedly) then it is probably worth the 60,000 price tag, however viewing it as a every day car theres alot more better value cars on the market.
as hot as it is for a daily driven car its too expensive.

I would buy one if i had the money to let it sit in the garage and only come out on sunny weekends six times a year.

P.S i would say it would be closer to 75,000 by the time you imported it and payed duty, GST etc on it

I'll second that.

60K lol
fark that's a brand new EVO 9 or STI with quite alot of options on it

I don't subscribe to the view that because the EVO and STi are (probably) faster, that they are actually better and a step above the FD2R or Mugen RR.

They are different, but it's not a given that should you wish to move on to something "better", the EVO or STi are default choices in the 60K bracket. They have their pros and cons, and if you were to make an argument for involvement and driver appeal, neither of the latter could be said that they would decisively trump the FD2R or Mugen RR.

funny that..if the mugen RR was released for 60K i would not touch it
i've test driven a FD2R and it was not that great. went pretty well stopped well. but lacked overall drivability.. refinement was great for a new car.. but just doesnt cut it for me i would not pay 41K driveaway for a FWD car
if u look at bang for bucks.. it's not the best.
we may love our hondas but theres better cars for the same price

evo or sti ftwps

Where did you test drive it?!

60 grand would make my CRX faster then any Civic RR lol. I'd probably have some left over for a different car as well lol
