Super limited run
Guaranteed to be a future classic and likely jump in values of buying new


Grab it while you can

At that bhp/tonne it's C5 RS6 fast /E92 M3 chasing fast all in a little Clio.


Surely this is going to be a hoot - and then remap it up to 350-400bhp

I can't think of a C5 that's anywhere near as fast as this or an RS6

C5 RS6 is the model of RS6 (the one in my garage pic profile and layer cake).

The C6 & C7 RS6 would destroy this Clio but that's not the point.

Oh, that. I thought you were listing a Citroën saloon, Audi RS6 and BMW M3.

Is it some well-known, significant benchmark car then? I thought they were supposed to be a bit crap.

[Alucidnation]

Wow, didnt know anything about this.

You can do 310/320 with bolt ons but beyond that you start needing to change engine internals and turbos but yes, pretty nippy.

So he has his jacket resting on his shoulders but hasn't knotted the arms. Poor show.

This the first thread to compare this Clio RS16 to the yardstick of all that is fast, the old RS6.
