The Honda Fit has established itself as a viable platform for tuners in Japan and with the apparently minimal amount of love being heaped upon the new Civic Type-R, aftermarket firms are focusing more attention on the Civic's younger brother.
Mugen's close ties to Honda have yielded yet another concept that takes the Fit to the next level. Typical for the Fit and Mugen, the F154SC has a supercharger slapped onto the L15A that boosts the power of the 1.5-liter four to 150 hp and 136 lb.-ft. of torque. Everything that could have been modified has, including a full coilover suspension, exhaust, intake and upgraded brakes, along with the prerequisite body modifications that widen the track and feed more air into the engine bay.
Other than the chromed-out grille and a couple of obviously ricey touches, and the fact that it's a yellow Fit, I'd hit it. I'm kind of excited about the new Fit.
Does anyone know if subaru plans to start with that new car in this year's rally monte carlo? I'm anxious to see what Solberg and Atkinson can do in a car that's on part with the competitors.
