Honda CR-Z. Mugen Style.

Straight from Mugen comes their take on the CR-Z. I want those wheels. I probably could do without the LED grill-bumper. Overall, not a bad looking car. Hybrid Tuning...its like the old adage, "All Show. No Go."  Maybe this round there'll be some "go" considering the amount of Japanese tuners willingly getting behind the Prius and Insight.

The FN2 Civic Type R Rally Car

Oh I love rally. And oh how I love the European Civic Type R. Put those two together? *gasp* Here is Honda Australia doing shakedown runs of their rally Civic. Tuned by JAS Motorsports and powered by Mugen, this little guy will be driven by Evans Motorsports driver Eli Evans and co-driver Glen Weston in the 2010 Australian Rally Championship.

The 2010 ARC starts this weekend and will be pitting my beloved hatch against the likes of Eli Evans' brother, Simon, in a Subaru WRX STi along with a field of TRD Toyota Corolla hatches and Mitsu EVOs.
