Thanks a lot for the review! And the pictures! I'd like to ask you for your impression about the car's handling at those 125mph. This is where that question comes from: the THP156 and THP200 "feel" kind of light at the front when going beyond those speeds. I don't mean, they are unsafe, cause...

Just out of curiosity, did I read it right? You don't get the WIP 3D navigation device in the R in UK? I don't see it on the list.

sweet! thanks! Hopefully that engine sound is not just fake...

Re: RCZ R test drive it's a necessary evil. Does it take a lot of the rear view away?

Talking about lead times for the RCZ R: back in Sept 2013 I was talking to my pug dealer about the RCZ R, the price and by when it can be ordered. Back then he had no clue. Or didnt want to share his wisdom with me, I dont know. October was the same game. Then during November into mid of...

I'm too new to this community to judge on its members. But alone a statement saying, a Megane RS is a dinosaur, shows me that guy has no clue about driver-focused cars. This is even more supported by pointing out to choices like a Focus ST or even worse, a Golf R. But I will shut up for a while...

no, I didn't. I chose the RCZ R. 6 series is beautiful, but huge and fat. Nothing for my driving style. I need a nimble and fast car, good for serious blast over the Alps and B-roads. But also capable of 155+ mph runs on the Autobahn. The RCZ R got all that.

I was opting for the 435i too, before signing the contract for the RCZ R. But the premium overhead was killing me. It was about 59.000 euros against 43.000 with similar toys onboard. The final decision was easy and to be honest, the beemer was way too "common" (even in that coupe chassis) for me.

Another video of the RCZ R. This time a drag race against the Megane 265, PhaseIII (newest version). Who wins? Take a look :) http://youtu.be/G9yHrqe0Kk8

A must! Great movie, over two hours but not for a single second boring. Outstanding performance by Leo but also by other supporting characters.

A german sports car magazine posted lap times for the RCZ R on the Hockenheim GP track. RCZ R 1.15,8 (4 sec faster than the RCZ200 facelift) BMW Z4 sDrive 35i 1.17,6 Merc SLK 350 1.18,8

ha ha, I feel like this. But angel wins, I'm gonna keep that red

I like it too. Very much. I'm tempted to change my order from red to that silver :D

That is pretty simple because regulated by the law. You decide if you pay a fixed tax charge per month which then covers all private mileage or you opt for a tax paid for each private mile driven. The difference is how much you drive of those private miles per year, the distance from home to...

My company car costs me around 380 per month plus taxes. The only upside is, I'm allowed to drive the hell out of it for private purposes. But again, every mile driven private costs me extra tax.

Yeah, quite remarkable. I'd like to see the RCZ R going for the hot hatch benchmarks like the Megane 265 Cup and M135i in a proper road test. Hopefully the EVO magazine will come with something like this any soon. Other cars like the TTS or Scirocco R are not up to the RCZ R when looking at...

I assume they mentioned the GTI because there's been so much hype going on about this "new" version. By the way, for those of you who are interested in squeezing the most out of the R (me :) ), here are some very promising lap times: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D7_83g9zVuk#t=460

in case I get my RCZ R till then (should be in my garage by begin of June), I'd be glad to do the drive up from southern part of ze Germany :D

yeah, you just dial that drive mode thing into ECO and it kills like 80 ponies but you can maintain astonishing MPGs. I was using the ECO mode all the time while cruising at steady speed and below 80 mph.

Yeah, those new F30 are very good cars. Back in 2013 I was looking for a new car (RCZ R was not yet there on my list) and compared the F30 to current C class and the A4 Audi. All petrol engines around 200bhp. The 328i manual beemer proved to be the best of three. Superior handling, engine...
