Seriously, $64k? Are cars in the UK just more expensive then in the US or are they crazy? 40-44k would sound more reasonable IMO.. and still then I wouldn't buy it. At 40k, I'd rather have an Evo X or a 370Z.

Edit: A top of the line 370z in the US runs for 37k, while the same model 370z runs for 52k in the UK. Jesus, a 15k difference. So if they brought the Mugen Civic RR down here it'll cost around 49k, but still.

They were developing a Mugen supercharger for the K20. I wonder if that has it.

$64K, I think that RS4 looks more tempting.

They have a S/C, but not released to the public. Just like their 4.0L V8
