The Mugen Honda Legend

This video was what poped up when i searched for the car on yahoo, a regular slightly modified Acura RL in NewYork. After searching for videos of The Mugen Honda Legend and not being able to find any videos other than the ones for the regular Acura RL led me to wonder if any others were produced other than whats pictured? Does anyone else know about this car, if so don't be afraid to drop a line, because I'd love to know more as well as see a video or two of it moving.
