The new 2012 Renault Mégane Coupé-Cabriolet Monaco GP coupe

The limited edition Monaco GP version of Mégane Coupé-Cabriolet is big on personality. Its unmistakeably sporty front end incorporates black headlight masks and a large air intake, while its sporting credentials are further emphasised by the models slick, classic stance and carefully balanced proportions.

The exclusive Pearlescent White body colour is accentuated by Etoilé Black details which produce a ‘two-tone’ effect reminiscent of a dinner suit.

The Gloss Black diffuser adds to the car’s sporty appeal and is suggestive of the phenomenon of ground effect associated with the world of Formula 1. The cabin boasts a dark charcoal trim with contrasting Pearlescent White highlights, plus embroidered “Monaco GP” badging for the seats and carpet mats. The glass roof ensures a brightly lit interior whatever the time of year.

The model’s elegance is further enhanced by careful attention to detail. The door mirrors, diffuser and fog lamp surrounds are picked out in a Gloss Black finish. Meanwhile, inside the cabin, Pearlescent White is used for the dashboard trim strip, door panel inserts and centre console. Each car comes with an exclusive numbered plaque and “Monaco GP” badging on the body sides. Aluminium pedal covers and 17-inch Gloss Black Celsium alloy wheels round off the list of sporty appointments.

Monaco in brief
The limited edition Mégane Coupé-Cabriolet Monaco GP symbolises Renault’s historic association with the Automobile Club de Monaco.
Ever since François Repusseau’s win on the Monte Carlo Rally in 1925 driving a Renault 40CV, the two partners have been united by common values and the same passion for motorsport.
A long-standing highlight of the Formula 1 season, the Monaco Grand Prix has been won on numerous occasions by Renault-powered cars (and most recently in 2011 by Sebastian Vettel). To help groom the F1 champions of tomorrow, Renault Sport also organises a Formula Renault 3.5 Series race through the streets of the Principality.

The new limited edition ‘Monaco GP’ version of Mégane Coupé-Cabriolet marks Renault’s contribution over the years to the legend of the Monaco Grand Prix.
First introduced in 2010 for Laguna Coupé, followed by Mégane Coupé and Mégane R.S. in 2011, the luxury Monaco GP signature targets customers seeking a combination of sporty styling and elegance.
The new limited edition version will be marketed in 12 countries and will go on sale in France today. Price is €32.800

First Drive: 2007 Honda Civic GX

Previews Greenie spendthrifts wanted: A heavier, slower Civic with a smaller trunk. Oh, yeah, and it costs 50 percent more. Never mind that we in Michigan are just emerging from our igloos after a long cold winter. The world is heating up, the ice caps are melting, and when that melt is complete, we’ll all be living high in the mountains in houses on stilts to stay dry. Forty days and 40 nights the waters will rage, and when the ice caps refreeze, we’ll all be fighting over who called first dibs on those last two pigs for our celebratory barbecues, since the unicorns were already eaten by sharks. There are people who would argue that that sinister little creation, the automobile, is responsible for it all. We blame Al Gore, China, sweatshops, and greenie celebrities who flit about in private jets. Those who want to make a difference drive hybrids, while those who researched their decision drive diesels. Those who are truly enlightened and want to make a difference, however, seek someth...

NAIAS Detroit 2007: Volkswagen continues BLUETEC offensive

Volkswagen is presenting the Concept Tiguan SUV study at the North American International Auto Show. In the first half of next year the series version of the “Touareg’s little brother” will be debuting in the US. The Tiguan is being advanced as a significant component in Volkswagen’s model range in order to expand the market position in the US. Moreover, Volkswagen expects additional US growth starting in 2008 from the market launch of the cleanest TDI of all times. The introduction of the Turbodiesel direct injection engine equipped with a NOx secondary treatment system is taking place as part of the BLUETEC offensive in the latest Jetta– the most successful car in America from a German manufacturer. European injection technologies are increasingly convincing US customers: In 2006 Volkswagen of America had sales 4.9 percent above the previous year. This corresponds to 235,140 vehicles sold in the US. The positive signs for 2007 include the Eos being offered for the first time over an ...

Ford Offers Sneak Peek at New Mondeo

BRENTWOOD, England — Ford has released teaser images of its new Mondeo in advance of the car's world debut at the 2007 Geneva Auto Show. The vehicle should be of major interest to U.S. buyers, even though the car initially will only go on sale in Europe this summer, since it is one of several vehicles under consideration by the Dearborn automaker for launch in America. Just as Saturn has done with the Astra, sister car to the Opel Astra, Ford is taking a hard look at whether its European models, such as the Mondeo , would be appealing to American buyers who have shown a decided distaste for products like the Ford Five Hundred. The Five Hundred was recently renamed the Taurus in a bid to boost the vehicle's showroom traffic. The Mondeo is said to be one of several vehicles being studied for a U.S. launch at the behest of Ford's new president and CEO Alan Mulally. The new Mondeo goes upscale, apparently adopting design cues from sister brand Jaguar. It will be offered in ...
