Interesting, will it turn out to be true??

 

[Cjmeek]

Sounds good, if in the end it comes out. Not a fan of that blue colour though :S

 

[badbuzz2]

Very nice motor

 

[marshall]

Looks wicked

Not a fan of the 200 Gordini being Malta Blue but if that 200T does come out and its racing blue then it would explain why its been kept off the options list.

Spec seems a bit odd. If its meant to be a lightweight hardcore brand now then why only save 25-30kg. One thing I do like though is the exhaust tips, I'm not so keen on the 200T's rectangle tips.

Going from the Pistonheads thread the cars a French forums wish list for a Gordini model.

Iam a fan the wife has 133DINI

Certainly an improvement on the standard 200T.

 

[Stevoox]

Quite like this and much prefer the circular exhausts. Now just needs recaros

 

[Scotty H]

horrible styling. Always thought the mk3 gordini was rank too.

0-60 5.9secs? Doubt it! Why would they make it on par with a 265?

It's some french guys wishlist, not a production model!

 

[Rogue]

25grand!!

 

[Soton200]

I would buy that.

 

[Fernandez]

I do like the philosophy that the Gordini should be enhanced and I do hope that they make it. But in reality buy a 200, Meg it and you'll have a quicker car at less cost

 

[lgonzalez]

That looks nice!!

 

[FaithlessEmo]

Its £25,000 quid. Doesn't compare well when the new Red Bull Limited edition Meg Trophy 265 is only £28,000!!!
But do like the round exhaust over the rectangles!

 

[slime]

This is very interesting indeed....but I here that the gearbox will be reprogrammed anyway to speed up the shifts. So just that and a set of recaro's would do for me.

Its almost 265 money!

 

[jimpy9]

for some reason that look so nice compared to the standard 200T and Racing blue is a gordini colour not malta blue

 

[Arran]

They need to stop with these fancy one offs and put the production, research and development costs in to sticking a manual in the normal 200T IMO.
