    Looks good although the wing could be a little more stylish. Kinda hard to make a stylish one with a high bootlid I suppose.

    Looks nice. Although I have to wonder what's the point of this car?

    Ah, I see it's optional accessories using the Mugen name. No actual retuning involved (I suppose that the 'sports exhaust' might have a minor effect).

    That rear upper spoiler is a waste - it'll add drag without significantly changing the roadholding of the car. I doubt there's any problem with oversteer at high speed that could be corrected by additional aero downforce at the rear, and lift is highly unlikely at the car's top speed.

    Top speed being... 90 on a downhill? :-D I'm not dissing the car. It looks nice. Buts its got no legs when it stands next to the Civic SI Mugen...

    zero lift front and rear.... not that you'll be going fast enough to feel the difference but hey, the design (except the rear spoiler) is quite nice.
