I was drinking a red bull whilst reading this and almost vomited on my keyboard, rep to you good sir.

I love my Z and all but I have been thinking about test driving random cars.

for example going to a BMW dealership and test driving stuff like the Z4M/M3

or Audi with the S4 or something.

but then thats it. VW...nothing special, toyota nothing special, mazda nothing special and so on.

European manufacturers needs to take heed the fact that muscle cars are in high demand and come up with a high output, cost effective V8, plain and simple. An M5 would not be considered cost effective

Lol that will never happen here.

I mean the new genesis coupé wont come out here with the V6 because europe was being bitches about the engine being too polluting or something.

+ the cheap little cars sell HUEG numbers so selling true cars wont bring a decent profit.

you know what is kinda sad? I said stuff like M3 but then again I totally would love to test drive a megane coupe RS.

ahh, to think, my gas guzzling, global warming causing beast will be gracing the streets of Europe in less than 6 months...

you better come grace my driveway

I still am wondering what would of happened if I actually bought a megane RS instead of the Z.

as far as I know there is barely any tuning scene for it.

Red370 · 03-03-2011, 02:48 PM

It definitely will. It kinda looks like the new Honda CRX, you made the right choice with the Z, way better looking.

Vegitto-kun · 03-03-2011, 02:56 PM

Eh it does, just looked it up, doesn't look anything like the megane.

I do think the Z looks better but not by a huge margin

this was what I wanted though I don't think its the same shade of yellow. I remember it being like pearl white but yellow so....pearl yellow?

you have to admit the center single exhaust is niiiice.

so we saw that at a car event

went to our renault dealership and asked for a full option cup version in that color.

their answer: sorry renault doesn't make the car in that color. the twingo RS and Clio RS have that color as option but the megane gets painted somewhere else so they don't have that color.

that pissed me and my dad off so we went to nissan to look at a 350Z they had. red one with persimmon interior.

ended up with the 370z

Red370 · 03-03-2011, 03:00 PM

from what i've been told from my German friends, I could sell my 5.0 in Germany for twice what its worth because the demand is so high, I could buy two of those Meganes for that, hmm....

Vegitto-kun · 03-03-2011, 03:03 PM

yup. that is a fact.

but I doubt you will since you will feel all happy driving such a exclusive car.

Red370 · 03-03-2011, 03:09 PM

well to be honest, if my old lady comes with me and decides she wants to start a family, I might end up having to get rid of it for something more economical, so who knows. Shit happens sometimes.

Red370 · 03-03-2011, 03:11 PM

I'm looking forward to seeing how pissed off the Polizei get when I come screaming past them on the autobahn.
