Mugen tuned Honda Civic Type-RR, with a new 260 hp (194 kW) 2.2L K20A engine.

The new engine is based on the regular 2.0L Type-R unit but thanks to a stroker kit now displaces 2,157cc. It’s the same basic i-VTEC 2.0L unit, but Honda has reduced friction on the internals and redesigned the camshafts.
Other modifications include uprated brakes, shocks and springs and Mugen’s new ‘I-TCMS’ tire monitoring system.

Another area that’s been improved is the gearbox set-up. The standard model’s manual ‘box has been replaced with a six-speed sequential unit, which shifts gears in a blistering 80 milliseconds. The car still retains a clutch but this is only used when launching from a standstill. The car’s body has also been given a major makeover. In addition to the new carbon-fiber front bar, designers stripped out the cabin and replaced the standard seats with figure-hugging buckets.

Is that a bare aluminum hood? LMAO that thing fails.

Wow, that's pretty sick. Every one of them will be stolen the first time they're parked.

For that price, they should add a navi system, and better hud. Then maybe it'll be worth a buy.

From a purely performance standpoint, the fact that the regular Civic Type R (fastest Honda around a track behind a NSX-R) in Japan (225 HP) beats out S2000's stock, I'd say this one is pretty damn worth it. I can't begin to imagine how much of a blast this vehicle is to drive.
