Did you test drive it around 1pm? If you were behind a grey Megane at the Phileo Damansara traffic lights, that was me.

Good luck with your financing! Hope to see another Megane on the road.

These megane doent look good. Civic type r is a much better purchase. Vtec much more faster n stronger. And who is renault compared to honda. A wiser man shud opt for honda civic rather than these unreliable n n9 vtec machines

RSwanson, thanks for your explaination.i test drove this car at TCEC last Wed.it was great driving experiences.the downside i found only the poor sound system (but who cares,its megane rs right) and the driver seat fabric already look like eaten by giant cockroach ( maybe because its the only test car available and its not leather like the special edition).mmm can’t wait the answer from the finance.hope everything work as i wish.

TCEC, if you really want to get good sales for Renault…. Try to learn from the marketing strategy of VW Malaysia !!!

Hi bro,

I can explain. The 265 is the facelift version of the 250. It’s got an additional 15hp that’s accessible by pressing the ESP button, slightly improved exhaust notes, and a better audio system.

At the moment, only the 250 is available in Malaysia. The 265 will probably be launched here sometime next year and it’s likely to cost more than the 250 too, in line with worldwide pricing. If you’re keen on the Megane, by all means get one now. The additional hp won’t be worth the few thousand RM extra and you can easily get more power than that through a remap.

Either way, you’ll definitely love the car!

kimchis got expiry date, better fully utilize before end of life as scrap.
megane RS250 will depreciate gracefully as a collector’s car.

This guy above always talk about nothing but resale value..Who cares, if you so afraid about low resale value, find another crappy, over rated, under spec car…

u r right
Megane rs250 lost to FD2R in terms of less doors 2 vs 4 and car dimension hatch-back vs sedan. LOL

So Mr Lenny, it is organized by the club not TCEC.Btw, i wish i can be one of your TT family soon.But i got bit confused about the megane available in Msia.I research on web, the 2012 facelifted rs came in black and special metallic yellow,the front DRL’s is 6 bulb not 3 and the interior dash was black, and the RPM dial bg is white not yellow.Not so sure what i found on web is spec for the throphy 265 or cup 250.Can u explain a bit about this.

Hi,

First of all, Thank you for covering the Event on the Renault Megane TT. However, I would like to add-on to what was written or rather improve on the accuracy but first let me introduce myself.

My name is Lenny and i’m a currently the president of this new Renault Megane Club which is officially called “RenaultSport RS Collectif”. We currently have about 30+ members and are actively trying to gather more.

Secondly, the TT was initiated by the club itself as a form of bringing all the owners together and making them known the club’s existence. Which then, We asked for TCEC’s support if we could use their premise and support which they have gracefully agreed hence the entire event.

I hope, this would add some clarification to the article that was posted. Thanks.

Regards,
Lenny Lim

Is Renault Megane considered as sport car? Or is it only a coupe?
