surely you are aware of the Honda plants in Ohio.....

Anyway, the Si's are built in Canada, I am not sure where the Mugenized versions are made. It almost looks like they are being tuned right behind my plant, as there are also 300 Fiji Blue Si's sitting there. Kinda coincidental don't ya think....

So................ My friend just tried to order Mugen goodies for his Si. He was getting them at his 25% discount because he works at Honda.

In order to get the Mugen Si parts, you must HAVE a Mugen Si VIN and have the parts installed on your Mugen Si. Or at least thats what he was told.
Hahahahhaaah!

If I had to go through all that, I'd rather just order Type-R parts from Japan.

He wants the knob, the boot, and the short throw.

its not coincidental at all, because there is no need to 'tune' a mugen si.

if you did in fact see them its because they are built right there in canada.

thats a good question.


i went to get my oil changed at a very high volume honda dealer and they had a mugen si in the back of the show room.

i was the only one who checked it out.

again, i'll stress that the car looks great, its just not worth it.


i was talking to a buddy of mine and he just could not get over how cool the shiftknob was.

........

but then he came to his senses thank goodness.

If these came to Canada, I'd consider buying one only because they are limited edition.
