2008 Honda Civic Mugen Si Sedan Set for Fall Release
2008 Honda Civic Mugen Si set for October launch in US TORRANCE, Calif. ??” A factory-prepared 2008 Honda Civic Mugen Si Sedan will debut in mid-October, American Honda Motor announced today. The Civic Mugen Si Sedan is equipped with a high-performance suspension, forged aluminum wheels, aerodynamic body styling and a sport-tuned exhaust system. "Honda enthusiasts have long been asking for factory-installed Mugen performance products similar to what the company offers in Japan," said John Mendel, executive vice president of American Honda. "We're enthusiasts, too, and the ultra-premium Civic Mugen Si Sedan offers exclusive style and elevated handling performance with legendary Honda refinement." The track-tuned suspension, tested at the Twin Ring Motegi racing circuit in Japan, lowers the vehicle by 0.6 inch with aggressive spring and damper tuning for enhanced handling performance and ride comfort. Compared to the conventional Civic Si Sedan , front and rear damping force were increased between 8 and 24 percent. Other modifications include lightweight 16.98-pound 18x7.5-inch forged aluminum wheels and high-grip BFGoodrich g-Force KDW 215/40ZR18 summer tires. An aero package adds a front spoiler with a sports grille, side spoilers, a rear bumper diffuser and a rear wing. The sport exhaust system reduces backpressure from the catalytic converter back. The Civic Mugen Si Sedan will be available exclusively in Fiji Blue Pearl and include front and rear Mugen emblems. The limited-production vehicle (maximum of 1,000 units for the 2008 model year) will have a retail price of less than $30,000 when it goes on sale and includes a full factory warranty. What this means to you: Get ready for an exclusive and high-performance Civic sedan. Source: [url=http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do/News/articleId=121806]Edmunds.com/Inside Line[/url] |
