Bringing a Legendary Mugen S2000 Back to Life | Gloss University x King Motorsports

After over a decade in storage, this rare Mugen Honda S2000 is getting a full transformation. In this episode of Gloss University, we sit down with Scott Zellner from King Motorsports to hear the incredible story behind this car — how he sold it over 17 years ago, why it left the King Motorsports collection, and what it took to bring it home again.

Watch as David Patterson and Matt Arendt perform expert paint correction and professional detailing to restore the deep, flawless gloss this Mugen S2000 deserves. From years of dust and neglect to a show-quality finish, this is more than just a detail — it’s the revival of a piece of Honda tuning history.
