    Hate the Renault but must admit that it surprised me how fast it is on a drag race againts the RS.

    My god, how hot is the RS...., its the clear choice if I wanted to upgrade...subies and Evos can kiss my *ss (except for the FQ-400)

    Well...after watching that....i really want the new Megane R250.

    With another 30hp and heaps more torque...the new one if it keeps the same handling and specs....should be awesome.

    But i still have a soft spot for the Focus RS...and i like the green too.

    Happy Motoring

    The same specs?..., you mean cuting on all the luxuries and leaving it as "naked" as possible to make its maximun gain on been very light?
