Hi all new member,

last week i had a test drive in a 200 thp gt i only went to have a look but i really liked it so test drive, iv had look and could not find a 200thp with the options i wanted ,opal white, carbon roof ,jbl sound system,black pack,sat nav,black alloys and the front splitter oh and xenons so i went to order it there is currently a hold on new orders while peugeot change to the facelift rcz . Iv seen the asphalt edition its got the options wanted except the colour obsly, so do i wait till january 20th earliest delivery date probs go back further to febuary. What shall i do wait for the face lift model, or go for the asphalt ? opinions appreciated

thanks John.

I'd be VERY surprised of they can't source one pre built with the options that you're after!! Did they happen to quote you a price for the facelifted model? We are widely expecting there to be a price increase. Maybe it is worth asking your dealer what they can source if you don't want to wait for the face lifted version?

If it was me, I would wait for the facelifted model.
If you buy now you are going to be hit doubly hard when you come to sell but that might not matter too much to you.
Personally I would not go for the Asphalt but that's just my preference.

At the end of the day it depends on how much money you have and want to spend, and then their is how soon you want it too. But keep some money left over for the mods ;)

Hi thanks for the replys in regards to sourcing one iv spent ages looking and so did the dealer i ticked all the good options only thing i never ticked was wifi it seems people were a bit tight when specing theese. you cant get one with xenons, jbl, carbon the only thing that came close was the asphalt im back to work next week so ill think about it more i do like the asphalt just dont like the idea of a huge price drop come the facelift, im currently building a parts list so il be after some bits from rcz performance :thumbup:

I love my GEN 1 RCZ...I am on the fence post about the new front look of the GEN 2 RCZ (but this is a personal taste)

I'd go for the asphalt, I might be a little bias but I'm sure you'd get a super great deal on it, remember it has all the toys as standard ;)

Mm interesting. I suppose to some extent we all think the same. We are all used to seeing the current model that the face lifted one is a bit of a shock to the system. I definitely think its a grower :)

I'm just a bit annoyed that Peugeot haven't given us some extra alloy wheel design choices for the 18 inch wheels. They are my least favourite part of my car because I generally prefer alloys with less spokes. I specifically got the Sport model as I didn't want the larger 19 inch wheels, for ride quality in the main.

Daniel, did you happen to see samples of the reported two new colours, particularly the red colour?
