The big question remains: why?

Just a fantasy, where on the Saturday afternoon happy to have some time for. Most reviews on the Peugeot RCZ and RCZ R are positive to laudatory. The handling is at least dynamic with even possibilities to what upset Spielerei, the driveline (especially the 1.6 THP with 200 hp) Le Oempf, and the price is not disproportionately high.

We tackle the stats on it, then it appears that in the Netherlands) 1,154 the RCZ’s driving around. Not a great number, but it remains a pure second (or third) car, and partly thanks to the economic climate of the past few years it was in the segment of toys are not super.

The Audi TT, a direct competitor of the RCZ, you come a lot more often (though the TT is also a lot longer built). Once in the press a comparison between these two sports cars was pulled, it was almost always concluded that the RCZ (R) absolutely the exciting car of the two. And that’s still where you a sports car for purchase, it seems obvious to us.

Question to you: where the problem lies in the RCZ? The looks? The lion? The image? Says you but.
