Spoon Sports, a name synonymous with racing excellence, transformed regular Civics into track beasts by focusing on balance over raw power. Led by the visionary Tatsuru Ichishima, Spoon revolutionized Honda tuning, setting a new standard in the late 80s.

Venturing into the heart of Tokyo, Donut's Jimmy uncovers the secrets behind Spoon's success, meeting with Kai, the current president of Spoon, at their headquarters.

Built by Legend's touch shines through in the custom aerodynamics and interior details, showcasing a perfect blend of performance and style.

Behind the wheel at Fuji Speedway, Jimmy experiences the sheer thrill of driving the $200,000 Spoon Civic, powered by VTEC magic and six-piston brakes. The car's handling prowess, thanks to Spoon's racing heritage and Built by Legend's expertise, leaves Jimmy in awe. As he navigates the iconic track, the Spoon Civic proves its worth, cementing its status as a priceless gem in the world of high-performance Hondas.
