tezza Posted 9, February 2013 Report Share Posted 9, February 2013 Hi there I am ecstatic- 2 days ago bought a MegAne 265 'Cup' at Gary and Warren Smith in Rimgwood- Capsicum Red with add ons of bi xenon lights, Sat Nav, front sensors ( rear ones are standard ) and tinting I read every review, all of which are astounding this litlle terrier, this hottie, thus little scorcher is the fastest front wheel drive in the world. The latest web review ' this is arguably the best built front wheel drive ever' But I have to wait till mid/late June 2013 till I get it I can't stop thinking about it. Please tell me if you have one and how it is going guess what, I'm not a gen or gen y dude, I am a baby boomer who has fallen madly in love!

acrRS250 Posted 9, February 2013 Report Share Posted 9, February 2013 Got a 250 and its sick. Good choice - especially in red! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speka Posted 9, February 2013 Report Share Posted 9, February 2013 I also have a 250 and it is the duck's guts!! Unbelievable handling, performance and great looks makes it in my opinion one of the most desirable cars this side of $100K!!! I hope the four months goes quickly for you - you will be a happy chappy once it finally gets here. Congrats on buying what I believe is the THE best hatch on the market - full stop!!

speka Posted 9, February 2013 Report Share Posted 9, February 2013 PS - keep in touch with this forum - it is THE best way to get to know your car before and after you take delivery. I find the info from other members really enriches my ownership experience - and don't be afraid to put your own posts up as often as you like! Also come to our annual meet in Spetember and learn from and enjoy the company of other RS members - it is a blast!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiapoco Posted 9, February 2013 Report Share Posted 9, February 2013 G'day mate welcome to the forums and congratulations on the purchase. Doesn't seem to be many capsicum reds that we know of on the road which is imo probably one of the best colours to grab it in Hope the wait isn't too agonising!

walkie86 Posted 9, February 2013 Report Share Posted 9, February 2013 Welcome mate! I absolutely love RS Meg 3s in red. Not sure why more aren't around. Hope the wait isn't too bad! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tezza Posted 9, February 2013 Author Report Share Posted 9, February 2013 Yehh I'm stoked, watch it on you tube eat up a Porsche Cayman R, in shoot out with a BRZ looked like a car designe 15 years ago. I decided to get xenon lights - believe they are excellent. I got Sat Nav rather than the speed timer gadgets over 400 metres etc/ - if you want both sat nav and that gadget / you can't- it is one or the other. I got a great deal with Gary and Warren Smith, from a fella called Serge. With the xenon lights ($1490) , Sat Nav, front sensors - $400 ( back ones are standard) and tinting, the Cup cost me $47730 drive away - big dollars but as we know the 265 is the fastest 2 wheel drive in the world, so when we can't afford a Lambo Aventador, the only next best choice is Megane 250 or 265 don't ya reckon brothers vrrrrmmmmmmmmmmm .... Bubblebubblescratchscratvhbubbke have any of you with the 250 upgraded the exhaust and muffler systen.. and the result??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
