I would see this car as a commercial....the car is not really something very special...I bet Renault paid a large sum to EA to let them put the Megane in...

If no information were to be provided on this being a FWD car, I wouldn't have known. From what I saw, the car oversteered instead of understeering. :?

The car is probably not really released yet...so, the speed can't be determined. just to add in more of the excitement, so they didn't show the speed. :P

I agree. I don't like Renault cars, specially the last ones, they're just ugly #-o (although this Megane is way better than the 2nd generation one :D). EA should have chosen the Renault Clio V6 instead, it's the best. But ok, I'm sure there are Renault fans out there, so this is going to be good :).

My Carrera GT and the BMW M3 are in, so, that's all that matters :mrgreen:

PS: Shouldn't it be '09 Renault Megane Coupe? Or the car is going on sale this year?

Bluestreak, Bojan said there will be no Hondas or Acuras in the game, so no civic.
I don't think it's the 65 GTO, it is the 04 but we'll see :D

I shouldn't come to this forum while the car list is not completed. You guess all the cars and you spoil the surprise! :mrgreen:

So the next one is going to be a Pontiac GTO, but which one? The '67 version or the '04 version? Personally I like both, and I wouldn't mind seeing them ingame. However, I think that the 1967 one would be better, there is kind of a lack on the old muscle cars list :|. I'm missing the Camaro SS and the Challenger.

It's because all specs are fictional. there are no official specs available for the Megan, just like there where no specs for the Fiat Punto in Most Wanted, because it wasn't released yet.

There won't be any Honda or Acura cars, due to the police chases (do the maths, NFS Underground 1&2 had Honda/Acura Most Wanted and Carbon did not, where Pro Street did have them again... MW and Carbon had Cops, and so does Undercover.)

And the whole list is already revealed and it's not on it.

Sure you can whine all you want about it's a rubbish add, but at least it's original, where most cars in the list have seen action it 2 or more NFS games or racing game in general.
Ok, Renault might not be to everybody's taste, but the Megane and the Clio are very popular cars in Europe, and yeah the are not for sale in the US, so that makes them pretty original imo.

I am personally not a big fan of Renault, but I do like it that they got a original Euro hatchback again, the Clio V6 was a nice car but it's been in Most Wanted and in Carbon. At least the Megane is more original, would have been nice to see the prev gen Megane 225 RS, but he everything original is fine with me.

Megane will go for sale soon and the specs have been released.

This model is probably in the game:
2,0 TCE
petrol 4-valve turbo motor; 1998 cm3; 132 kW (180 KM) at 5500 rpm; 300 Nm at 2250 rpm; manual 6-speed transmission; FWD; top speed: 225 km/h; 0-100kph: 7,8 s; mileage: 7,6 l/100 km; emissions: 178 g/km (CO2)

The whole carlist for NFS Undercover has been in NFSUnlimited.net's uc carlist section for a while now:
http://www.nfsunlimited.net/undercover/carlist

The unconfirmed cars just mean that they haven't been announced by EA yet.

Bojan also, I am having trouble accessing the undercover screenshots page, my computer keeps saying it is unable to open it. Can you see if there is a problem you can fix?
