i like the concept colour more thats for sure :p... one in black will look awesme!
"sunny melon" is the colour name lol
edit
THERE IS NO BLACK :O :( graphite is closest can get
I like the sunny melon colour and the overall look of the car - nothing a little modding couldn't fix. Although not much in the way of performance. Hopefully there will be an OPC/VXR variant.
yeh 132kw z16ler is pretty dull compared to what it could be.. has been a decent tuning platform but

I'm sure the OPC/VXR variant will not be short on power or performance...
Looks nice in yellow and alot like Megane RS250 LOL but I too prefer that 'sunny melon' colour :)
Can't wait to see if they release a 2 door roadster twin top variant with the drivetrain of the OPC/VXR as I read somewhere they are going to do and it wouldn't surprise me either to compete, as VW are definitely releasing Gti and/or R variants of the Golf convertible soon...
itll just be an a3 cabriolet then... just even worse looking haha

3" Exhaust and a tune brings it up to the current vxr OE spec, minus about 20nm of torque.Quote:

Designed to blow away the competition, the 1.6-liter turbo has been outfitted with a high-performance needle valve (€980), higher-quality connecting rods (€550), larger fuel injectors (€500), and an HG Motorsport turbo manifold (€1,200). Furthermore, the company installs a Garret GT28 turbocharger (€1,000), a custom intercooler (€600), a 100mm air-flow meter (€300), a 7mm downpipe (€800), and a stainless steel sport exhaust system (€800).Quote:

I'm not sure which is the bigger typo- a 7mm downpipe, or a downpipe that cost €800
The GT28 seems like a bargain in comparison!
Yeah, the downpipe is only €189. That motor is also the LET version where as the GTC is running the LER, same as in the corsa vxr?Quote:

The cost of puchasing all those parts would wear a hole in your pockets !

However what's interesting in this new AJ is the 'possibilty' of a 2 seater roadster version....HOT !!! can only hope :)
