Well, something different to for you guys.... May have something in common to EP3 and DC5 next year... K20.....

Me and the wife was watching either Topgear or Fifth Gear and they were testing the new Ferrari 430 with the paddle shift. My missus said ' wow, I did not know that cars could have shifters on the steering wheel. I like that very much....'

I thought to myself, I know a Honda that has that setup, the Jazz!!!!

So the plan hatched and here we are with the finished article.

I hope you guys like it!

Yep, sorry to mention, I do have HID's too!

I did not list the parking sensors as this is dealer fit in addition to the centre armrest/console storage. Sun Roof is also an option if you want to nitpick.....

What white Jazz are you talking about?

It's nice but I prefer this:-

Posted: **Sun Sep 17, 2006 10:09 am**

problem is, you cannot get that car.... I love it too!

It is the Mugen Concept Jazz/Fit called 'Dynamite'. Has K20 engine installed running 250ps with solid engine mounts

. Great car and seen in many times at car shows in the flesh.

You can get the a similar loooking kit in Singapore/Thailand but takes a lot of work to get it right, which UK labour rates would make it a very costly excercise.

Hopefully Mugen will be releasing a retail version of the Dynamite aero kit (90% the same) this year as show at Tokyo Auto Salon 2006.

wow that is amazing would love a jazz type-r

Sweet. I'd given up on this site because I bought a Type S not a Type R and some *one* had advised me to buy a) a SEAT b) a Ford c) another car.

I love Hondas. You can understand my indifference to their advice, perhaps even my antipathy towards their general health and well being...

Great to see you with a good looking Honda out there.

Now, any hints or tips on how to get the most out of a Type S? Nice websites saved to Favourites!

All the best!
