Don't get me wrong, I'm a huge mugen fan, but they do make me laugh. Rich man's car, cos if you buy one it's unsupported within 2 years (I know that's an exaggeration, but you get what I mean).
Unsupported? What does that mean? There seems to be plenty of parts available for the MBX5.

They are unsupported here locally, but finding part online is easy. Even for the MBX5. But these Mugens are tanks and you won't need to order many parts anyway!
Indeed, this is what I meant. 'Unsupported' as a business term means that the manufacturer is no longer actively producing any supporting parts for a model. There are still parts online, but they will dry up eventually. Certain MBX5 parts are getting hard to find, especially some of the prospec bits. MBX6 part productoin has now stopped too I believe.
