Come September 13, Japanese enthusiasts will be able to order up the
hottest Civic Type R yet. The already-impressive R gets the full
once-over from Mugen, and the result is the Honda Civic Mugen RR.
Designed to be perhaps the ultimate front-engined/front-wheel-drive
performance car, the Mugen RR sheds an additional 10kg (22 lbs) off
the standard Civic Type R's weight, coming in at 2733 lbs. In
addition to the weight loss, the freer-breathing Mugen RR picks up 15
horsepower over the regular Type R. It's rated at 240 horses at 8,000
rpm and 160 lb-ft at 7,000 rpm.

Complementing the added power and and decreased weight are a new
bodykit, upgraded brakes all around, a retuned suspension, new wheels
and tires, and logo-emblazoned Recaro sport buckets. Availability is
limited to 300 cars, all in the Milan Red finish shown, and the
pricing in Japan has been set at ¥4,777,500 ($38,750 USD).
