The Honda Civic 8 Type R sold from 2007 to 2011 is characterised by a very rounded look, even a little too rounded for some. However, the design of the European Civic 8 was awarded the 'Most Beautiful Design' prize at the WCOTY (World Car Awards) in 2006. Not long after, Mugen made the Civic a little naughtier with its special aero kit and engine preparation. As a reminder, MugenMotorsports is a Japanese company specialising in engine tuning. They are known for being the makers of the Honda engines used in Formula 1 between 1992 and 2000.
