111,247
Published 2022-08-04
With reworked engine, suspension and body - only 16 examples were ever sold, and this one is still in the possession of its original owner. When new, these commanded close to £40,000 - but was it worth it?

My FN2 is certainly not without its flaws. But when you’re going past 5500rpm, they all fly out the window. Awesome VTEC vans
-
I've had my FN2CTRGT for 6 years and done almost 100k miles in it. Never put a foot wrong. It's awesome. At the ripe old age of 53 I've just bought a mugen wing for it because I've always wanted one!

So great to see PX03 is still in the same family, we well remember meeting Audrey and Douglas when they came down to collect it (after a train journey of several hours) - really lovely people. Hope Matt enjoys his time with the car. Incidentally, only one was ever built as a 2.2, and that's been living in our office in Milton Keynes for most of it's life (and just about to be delivered to its new owner).

Have to say I absolutely love my FN2 GT. Owned since it was 16 months old and don't intend to sell it. Totally trustworthy, brilliant engine, love the seats and the red graphic dash.
-
My FN2 went to the Rev Limiter everyday for 7 years and 100k, What a piece of engineering for an everyday car it was superb ❤️
-
103,000 miles on my fn2 but if we guys all wear n tear replacement’s are all genuine it still drives like a new fn2 wicked I love it.😃😃😃
-
About 7 years ago I worked at a used car dealership. We had a Type R in for about 8 grand and one of these for an extra 10 grand. Didn't realise how special they are until watching this. Thanks
-
The FN2 has aged so well, I've been eyeing up one for a while now.
-
Got an FN2 18 months ago after my i30 N was written off and I still have the FN2. I was only going to keep it for a few months until I found a new car but man these are so fun to drive, reliable and cheap
-
Most definitely just about everything I'd want in a hot hatch or a Honda! A great story of the family who owns it and I appreciate the little details in the review like showing off the handbook.
-
The original ek9 with its near 1000kg weight and 182 hp and brilliant handling is one of the best hatches ever made
-
Love my FN2 such an underrated car and the Mugen is just on another level, another great video jay!
-
Loved my FN2 - had it for 7 years and did 170,000kms in it. Cracking car. Driving a GR Yaris now and it reminds me what I loved about small 2 door hatches
-
Great video - and great telepathy, I was looking at FN2s last night so this is primely timed helpful advice!! Keep up the great work
-
Even as understeered as it is, I love my regular Civic of this generation. Will, from now on, call it my VTEC Van.
-
I borrowed a mates FN2 Type R for a week and it had a bone splitting ride however the K20 engine is just such a special thing. Truly intoxicating addictive fun.
-
The exhaust sound like a kazoo to me 🤣 Nice and fun little car. Nice video. Keep up the good work.
-
Awesome car. Another car that I wish we had in the U.S. The only Mugen version we had was a Mugen Civic Si sedan. I think around 2008.
-
Owned a FN2 for 3 years, loved it! Recently upgraded to a FK8 6 months ago (amazing car).. but some days I still miss my FN2. Although, the hard/stiff ride quality of the FN2 is probably the only thing I don't miss about it.
-
earlier this year i bought a modded fn2 with the full mugen wing an body kit miltek stainless exhaust ecotec engine remap to 240bhp and the car is amazing im loving it you cant beat the old school feel and vtec rush !!
