By VIGNESWARAN CHANDRANImagine owning one of the 200 pieces of the Limited Edition RCZ cars from Peugeot, and taking it for a spin on a brilliant circuit with nothing but the car between you and the surface beneath you! Unbelievable I must say! Well, a lucky few (200 to be exact) are actually fortunate enough to be able to do this, as Peugeot invited the owners of the Limited Edition RCZ to collect their vehicles at the Castellet Circuit, the very location where all Peugeot Sport drivers receive instructions and training before they tackle the tough Le Mans 24 Hours Challenge. The owners received the keys to their cars from the sport drivers themselves, and personally shared the experience of the trial drive with these outstanding drivers during both night and day. When unleashed at the Frankfurt Motor Show, the Limited Edition RCZ was snapped up within 48 hours, all 200 of them, and the list of buyers included 26 French purchasers that certainly know how to appreciate the engineering excellence of their country.Only 200 pieces of this magnificent car was produced as it was created to mark 200 years of Peugeot’s involvement in car-manufacturing. The introduction of the car at the Frankfurt Motor Show at first drew plenty of admiration, and within a short period of time purchasers flocked in! The car itself comes with a 1.6-liter 156bhp THP engine that is capable of sudden bursts of acceleration that would command plenty of attention on the road. It also comes attached with a manual gearbox, something that would appeal to most whose enjoy driving in the conventional style. The Limited Edition RCZ that was on display at the show was shown in the brilliant color of Pearl White, and showcased an amazingly gorgeous interior that was clad in black nappa leather. Not only are the aesthetics beautiful, the car also comes fitted with matt-black 19-inch Sortilege wheels, making the car stand out without a shout of a doubt! Brake calipers in black and smoked arches as well as a glossy black bumper grille add attraction to the already impressive vehicle. And when we add the fact that you also get carbon rear view mirror shells to go with everything else, no wonder all 200 cars were snapped up within 2 days!You also receive a colored-navigation system within the vehicle, and the buyers had the liberty to choose between the Premium Pack, Comfort Pack and Vision Pack to match their needs best. The Limited Edition RCZ is without a doubt a must-have, but only if you can persuade one of the 200 owners to sell. A bit difficult is you ask me! |
