From Supercars...

Created by the tuner Access for Honda, the Modulo will be unveiled at the upcoming 2008 Tokyo Auto Salon.

Compared to the base model, the car's exterior body kit is more chiseled and the interior refined. At the front is a new grill, updated headlights and an aggressive bumper. Seven-spoke wheels and 245/40 R19 tires and a lower sill skirt round out the sides while the rear has a new bumper and lights.

Inside is a orange-upholstered interior that has black crocodile inserts. Multimedia LCD screens are hung for each of the rear passengers.

In a word: Honda.
That's why. Honda is when it comes to putting product like this on the streets of NA. Honda NA is like Ford NA

the fog lights that stick out, the over sized in your face grill the weird rear bumper lines. the only thing that looks good over the mugen car is the side skirts.

The conservative-looking Modulo Inspire doesn't look too conservative to me, especially with the flaring front aero piece. Very nicely done overall.
