It is an M-Tec Sedan coming out as the Formula One version of Civic Si, co-developed by Honda and MugenIn Japanese Mugen means "without limit" and it is an auto part manufacturer. This company was founded by Hirotoshi Honda who is the son of the founder of the original Honda Motor Company Mr. Soichiro Honda. However, Mugen is not a part of Honda Motors and has been operating independently since its foundation. Mugen is famous for the parts that it has been developing mainly due to its involvement with F1 and super GT racing. This involvement has certainly refined the production of Mugen and those who want to give their car a sports looks and most likely to buy the Mugen auto parts. The company has also been known to produce high performance and racing parts for the racers as well as the street tuners.

But you need not worry that people might confuse it with its Civic Si version since the Mugen Si badge is clearly displayed at the front grille, spoiler and the rear deck.
