The Mugen RR has always been a dream car for Chris Lopes. "I decided to go with a CSX Type S because of close resemblance to the Mugen RR. I styled the car to look like a Mugen RR but with my flare. I strive to be different and set myself from the crowd," he writes. "This car has came a very long way and each step has been hard work but day by day I see my dream coming to a realty. I enjoy every minute with this car and I would never get rid of it. It will only get better as time goes by."
