The world would be a different place without Soichiro Honda, who founded the Honda brand in 1948. But our new Honda vehicles wouldn't be the same without Soichiro's son, Hirotoshi Honda, who founded Mugen Motorsports many years later.
Today Mugen is the provider of engine tuning and other fun auto parts and accessories. Drivers, including those in the Anderson, SC area, use such fittings to enhance their Honda vehicles in terms of personalization and performance.
Overseas in Honda's home country of Japan, the 2014 Honda Fit has already hit dealerships and while that is exciting, Mugen Motorsports is making it more so with an exclusive line of 100 plus parts made just for the Fit!
Some of the MUGEN parts that Japanese drivers will have the choice of customizing their Honda Fit with include:
- Two types of front spoilers
- Full aero bumper and an under spoiler type, both available based on customer preference
- Front under spoiler and side spoiler, both available in the owner's choice of its Fit's body color or two toned-- body color with matte black
- Upper rear wing finished in Carbon
- Sports silencer
- Sports suspension
- Upgraded brake pads
- An aluminum MUGEN MD8 wheel
- Assist meters with water-temperature, oil-temperature, and oil pressure gauges
- Sports mats
- Ventilated visors
- Option to upgrade to semi-bucket MS-Z seats or MS-R full-bucket seats
The aforementioned MUGEN parts not only give the Honda Fit some sporty flair, but also the ultimate sports driving experience. While we won't see the new Fit at Piedmont Honda until early 2014, its Japanese counterpart is a solid indicator of what to expect. Stay tuned to our blog for continued updates on the 2014 Honda lineup!
