Está tudo a kitar os carros para ver se conseguem bater o melhor tempo... suspensão assim, pneus assado, travões XPTO, escape do bafo... tudo é válido.

Até quero ver o que a VW vai fazer com o Golf, nitro, toyo 888 etc etc...

Renaultsport Megane 275 Trophy revealed ahead of Goodwood debut | Autocar

Renault has revealed a new limited-edition version of the Mégane Renaultsport, dubbed the 275 Trophy.

Set to make its UK debut at the Goodwood Festival of Speed in June, the new model features Renault's Cup chassis and includes a limited-slip differential as standard.

The car has also received a power upgrade. One of the key features is an Akrapovic performance titanium exhaust system, which helps to increase output from the 2.0-litre turbocharged petrol engine from 261bhp to 271bhp (or 275hp). There's also 266lb ft of torque available, while Renault quotes fuel consumption at 37.7mpg alongside C02 emissions of 174g/km.

The car is likely to be the model which Renault will use to tackle the sub eight-minute Nürburgring lap record for front-wheel drive cars, currently held by Seat at 7min 58.4sec and at an average speed of 96.8mph.

A performance Mégane was previously teased in a preview video in association with Akrapovic. Dubbed the Under 8 project, it is believed that Renault will attempt to take back the record from the Volkswagen Group in June.

Other performance enhancements to the model include optional adjustable Öhlins dampers and springs and performance Michelin tyres. New Renaultsport graphics also feature alongside optional 19-inch alloy wheels.

Inside, the Mégane 275 Trophy comes with leather and Alcantara trim, Recaro bucket seats with contrasting stitching and a new alloy gear knob.
Pricing and specification information will be confirmed closer to the car's launch, which is likely to be later this summer. The 275 Trophy is believed to be a run-out edition for the current Mégane before a new model arrives in 2015. Renault has confirmed the Trophy will go on sale in 20 countries, with the first deliveries scheduled for October.

Os tempos do Ring, pessoalmente, pouco valem para alguma coisa.
São meramente indicativos das performances do carro e existem variadas variáveis a ter em consideração.

Atualmente, são mais marketing que outra coisa mas apesar de tudo gostaria muito de ver este R.S Trophy a chegar em cima do Cupra

Renault takes Nürburgring record with Mégane RS 275 Trophy-R

Renault Megane 275 Trophy - Autocar teste

All the Méganeish goodness, only with more power and noise and optional adjustable dampers. Possibly the greatest version of the hot hatch ever...

What is it?

A brand new hot Renault Mégane, which slots in-between the current 265and the Trophy-R, which Renault has used to smash the current Nürburgring lap record for front-wheel-drive production cars.

It's the latest in a long line of Mégane special editions which have included the likes of the Red Bull Racing RB7 and RB8 in the past. Unlike the Trophy-R, production of this hot Mégane won't be limited, and Renault expects to sell around 100 models in the UK.

From the regular 265 comes the five-seat interior, albeit with a few highlights (contrast stitching, Alcantara wheel and a numbered sill plate, as well as some exterior highlights), and the essential Cup chassis with that essential mechanical limited-slip differential.

Meanwhile, from the special Trophy-R comes the 10bhp power upgrade from its Akrapovic exhaust, as well as the option of 19-inch Michelin tyres from the R in place of the standard 18-inch Bridgestones.

Also optional are Ohlins adjustable dampers from the R (at £2000 over the Trophy’s £28,930 base price), adjustable by 20 steps at the front and 30 at the rear if you’re prepared to get underneath and twiddle. Renaultsport will suggest damper settings on its website for different circumstances, including the ones it used on the Trophy-R’s record run on the Nordschleife. That’s where we drove the Trophy.

What is it like?

Two laps of a circuit doesn’t usually tell you much but, this is the Nürburgring, so it’s a lot like a 20-minute thrash on a B-road. A smooth, very fast and seriously inclined B-road.

Around it, this car is seriously good. The changes taking the motor to 271bhp are all electronic, and that there’s more torque through more of the rev range means, Renault says, there’s less need to downshift. Not sure I noticed much, but that sounds fair – it’s broad, responsive, and the exhaust makes a belting pop on lift-off too. The pedals make heel-and-toeing a little tricky, so it’s just as well.

The Trophy’s steering and handling are also tremendous. There’s so much road feel you’d swear the steering was hydraulically not electrically assisted, while grip abounds and the Trophy has the kind of adjustability and communicativeness that are Renaultsport trademarks. There are previous Mitsubishi Evolution or Ford Focus RS levels of tenaciousness at work here.

I can’t tell you about outright ride quality and therefore the relative effectiveness of the Ohlins dampers, because I haven’t driven the Trophy on the road, but running over the odd kerb edge it was free from harshness, while body movements are so deftly controlled that you’d swear the car was made for this track. Which, in a way, I suppose, it was.

Should I buy one?

Even though it’s possible the deftness and ability the Trophy shows on the track might not translate to lumpy back roads, my bet is that it will. On this showing, it is the greatest version of today’s greatest hot hatchback.
