They’re already worth a fortune what are you talking about! Only 300 ever made.

This man has a natural gift for speaking. A natural speaker. It's fascinating to hear him talk about these cars. He could sell me any car that he wanted!
Didn’t know much about the Mugen side of Honda before so it was cool to see what they do. Maybe it would be good to see more on the JDM tuning arms of the manufacturers

Sad that this is now in the past. Mugen is now dedicated itself to aero kits of questionable design and construction. Nothing more on the side of performance. For that you have Spoon or Seeker…
Honda really got a the styling of a number of generations of civics right - still look fresh today.
Currently own that era of Si; such a great car from the factory (minus the interior). I can only imagine the improvements made with this car
Absolutely in love with the RR, being it was the last TRUE Type R made.. Amazing machine😍
One of my all time favorite cars, a video of this on the road would be excellent.

So glad you guys are back...you have some of the best JDM cars in your selection. I love every single one of these JDM cars.
I 100% agree that these are the ultimate civics, probably the only one I would own and keep for ever .
True Honda fan, no hiding that. What a car.
She is beautiful! My dream machine 😍 Shout out to Jamie for another great video! You guys should do Torque GT staff rides videos 😁

Desde mi humilde opinión, como propietario de EP3, creo que el FD2 Mugen RR, representa en su máxima expresión el significado y el concepto de la filosofía del departamento de Type R. Mecánica pura y sensaciones puras, sin interferencias, unas sensaciones que te llegan a lo más profundo de la mente y del corazón
That's a bad ass car hands down and I have a 2015 civic si sedan My dream car lol.
Definitely would love one of these in my garage.
You guys should do a drag race with all these legends

These machines aren't for drag races and I really cannot understand why the Western are so fantasies on drag races that purely on bhp numbers.
I’m supercharging my mugen si this spring! Can’t wait. Such a fun car.
Wow next time take it for a driving review after the showroom please 👌🏻
Not a massive honda fan but that is pretty special
The Mugen NSX Type R. The prototype that had the engine mounted longitudinally. Or a Mugen s2000. Mugen Type R DC2 Mugen Type R DC5
Beauties! Especially the Subaru. I can't wait to see more!
Incredible.....
What a car!
Great vid, but it's Moo-gen, not myuu-gen (for future ref).
Last Type R with true VTEC
What a fucking beast 😻❤️👌🏽 2nd dream car after the NSX R

Anyone know if the carbon pieces that were on this car at the auto show made it into production?
Does the air intakes on the hood cause water in engine bay to do any electrical damage?
love the car and appreciate the explanation... but not even a drive or a start-up? track-focused car and yet it never leaves the garage edit: nvm. just saw the other vid, same channel
Really nice car mugen RR 🥰🥰🤩💪💪
Wonder how many of these on UK soil? Be cool to see some footage of it in action, but I guess it's so precious you don't want to de-value it!

Love Honda, and a big fan of Torque GT (still got my DC5, thanks!). But this car more than many will struggle to justify the price tag. I know there are lots of people out there for whom £80 grand is chicken feed, but for a Civic? Even one as scarce and special as this? Don’t get me wrong, someone will pay the money, if they haven’t already. I’m afraid this is an example of rarity/exclusivity spoiling a car, it’s cost places it in the ‘store in the garage’ category. Who in their right mind is going to pay that much for one of these and then actually use it? We all want our own JDM metal to appreciate, but some recent examples have been ridiculous. To that end… New idea, Torque GT: car hire. Rather than charge £150,000 for one person to buy a mint R34, charge £150 an hour and let everyone have a go! That would get you included in my will! Thanks for the excellent service before, during and after buying my car, and glad to see your videos are going again. Maybe a tribute to the old DC5 would be good for a future episode?

Some very well made points there. Yeah cars like this won't be driven very much on the roads, never mind the track where this car was made for. Just curious to see how stiff it is on the road Torque GT? I remember when my brother had a standard FD2 and it was really firm on the roads here so I would guess the RR would be even stiffer again.
True.... The best civic Mugen ever....
Sucks we never got this variant in the United States
It's great but personally I prefer original mugen type r
Could this car become part of the show and display list here in the US?
@lukekindred1999

I doubt it because its not like a standalone car that was built from the ground up by Mugen - just a package essentially so doubt the officials over there would deem it special
Not a fan of the fd2, the proportions are all wrong with a very short mini-vany front and the saloon rear. Even if there were 300 of these and many thousands of nsx, s2000 or integras out there those would still feel more special to me. Do like everything Mugen did to it though 👌
The best is the nsx-r. The second best car is the integra type r. The greatest fwd car to modify is the civic eg
does it have independent rear suspension tho?

Everyone knows that the best honda ever made is the first one they drive , obviously.
I neqrly imported one of these when they came out for £35k... What a mistake that was.
This video was made to help increase the over inflated prices of these. Special car but its not worth 90k
Shame the bonnet vents are fake. Amazing car otherwise.
Badass car - but anyone else notice the broken drivers door wind deflector?

Moo, not Mew.
Glad mugen did their thing with this one. Not the biggest fan one of the ugliest generations imo. Aside from the engine not a big fan of this one. Id rather swap that k20rr in a 90s civic
237 horsepower beating GTRs at the track?? This I have to see.
Such a sexy ass car. I would take this over any ctr all day.
RIP Honda
