It’s a cracker. I need one! This and the M2 are part of my destiny!
Nurb time?
Did they do one? I thought Ford said they weren’t doing the ring with this car. They said it didn’t matter. It wasn’t going to be the fastest given that manufacturers are cheating left right and center (Honda!) and they didn’t want to be involved.
Beautiful beast…
Just wait untill new Mégane RS comes out. Just wait
Has the Nürburgring already stocked their guard rail storage up to be prepared for a new Megane RS?
Better yet, an AWD Alpine Mégane.
Those cars got nothing on me and my geo. When i get a turbo put in her she’ll take them all down.
Why there’s no Evo?
because the last one made was around 3-4 years ago so it wont be fair comparing it to the newer cars.
If only UK young drivers insurance wasn’t a ball ache… :(
Lol! Thank the good lord that young British drivers aren’t driving around in these! I’d like to keep my life.
take a look at insurance for an abarth mate! Love my little hot hatch and is my first car at the age of 18!
AMG should of won that.
Really? “Should “””of””””?? It annoys me more than I’d like to admit…
Why?
Automatic is a Pro?
Since when?
I think they thought about it like that it’s a good automatic transmission, not that it’s a pro that it has one. You can see that at another car it said pro: Manual gearbox, and that wouldn’t make sense since most of them are manual.
Since the moment it became faster than shifting :)
I also prefer manual tho
Is it just me that I don’t like the appearance of the car at all? =|
It’s face is like a beefed up Fiest and it’s ass is horrible in my opinion.
I would never pick it for a daily over the Audi for example (i would even pick the S3 over the focus RS)
I completely agree. I’d rather have a Golf GTI.
All of those hatches are amazing. Except the sti because it continues to be the same. Now that the evo is gone the sti quality will go down
It won’t go down since now they have to deal with the new bred of 4wd hot hatches.
I think the Focus RS is the new Evo in the market, but that’s just me.
The STi was good in the first place so I’m glad they didn’t change it
