looks like the mb chassis we get over here in europe, its a 5 door and it uses alot of rover parts ! infact it looks similar to alot of rovers we have out here
the only good point about them really is the mb6 has the b18c4
the euro equivelant oif the b18c1

that it does...maybe with a 99-00 usdm civic sedan grille? that might be your best bet if it fits. the trunk is probably different too like the EL's...you might wanna check that out too

the mb civics were never made for the american market i dont think so the chances of you getting any without having them shipped over from europe is slim
rover are a european car company, also part of the same group as mg and they have collaborated with honda before, some old rovers used honda engines
this particular model just shares alot of parts with a rover

not alot more i can tell you apart from it doesnt really resemble any other honda

Probably something to do with good taste. To me, the thing looks like a mix between an EF, 96 civic sedan, and an accord. Mix all three together and you get a thumb down. yuck.

Front end looks good, but the back is ugly. Would be interesting to get more info and specs, on it. or if someone did that front end conversion. any interior shots? or engine bay?

Probably because the cool-*** hondas aren't marketable enough in this crazy camaro/mustang world.

Import perfomance isn't as big here with your average guy because gas is so cheap and everyone can afford to dirve around a mustang GT.

Whereas in Europe most gas prices are over $7 a gallon. 4 banger and small v6's appeal much more to the Euro economy.
