    This is really a car for the ladies as many men have a lot of trouble locating the Clio. In fact, many men don't even believe that the Clio exists.


    That being said, women always know where their Clio is, and lots of ladies will go straight to their Clio after a hard day at the office, or even in the middle of a romantic movie.


    Many women love their Clio, and aren't ashamed to stroke it through the gears. The Clio, being pert and responsive, reacts to the slightest flick of the wheel, or jab at the accelerator with a ripple of movement and a gush speed. An experienced woman can control her Clio as though they were one, giving just the right inputs that climax in a burst of speed and waves of miles beneath them.


    Of course, such gratification comes at a cost, and after such a session, both Clio and driver are pretty much spent.


    At least that's what I read in Penthouse Car Forum.

    @graverobber: Jay Wert Hacked my Sig!: While I tend to agree with your synopsis, when it comes to womens cars its the mythical Gear-Shift Poking Out of Transmission that man has spent centuries, if not minutes looking for.

    New Renault Clio GT is easily recognizable from the rear thanks to its twin exhaust tailpipes and lip spoiler.


    They want to be sure people know what kind of car you are driving as you run away.

    "New Renault Clio GT boasts racy looks and 'fun to drive' handling."
    Grand touring indeed.

    Why can't the U.S. automakers install interiors that can rival those of the European automakers. I'm not asking for a better interior, just one that is equal, or close enough to being equal. The fit and trim, and the overall general quality of European interiors is much better than their U.S. counterparts.

    What is with all the de-weirdification going on with French cars? The "racy look" is more Opel than Renault.

    Awww, shame, I always like the 2 hole grille Renaults have had for the past few years. Its a shame another maker is going for the blank front look, which just makes me think the designers can't be bothered.


    "Ohh, Jean-Pierre, I cannot be bozered trying to upgrade ze grill on zis car, I zink I shall just not bozer..."


    *rubs out grill on Clio*

    @Firenza: I like that look on most cars, but I think Renault would've been better off keeping their new trademark style.


    Be careful, though. You might start thinking the '90s American-model Escort is attractive.



    Y'know, now that I look at it again... shoot me now.

    I wish we could get the French cars over here in the states. It would spice things up a bit with all the tired designs we have these days.

    @jduffy13: No you don't jd: Renault, and the French in general, have lost their va va voom over the last two years. The new Megane has lost its way so it can get the top Euro Ncap 5 star rating. They still do ugly tho', Citroen do some real howlers.

    @regalregalia: While I'll agree with you there (at least on the second, current generation), and while I do find the Xantia/BX/XM to be remarkably attractive, the Xsara Picasso is absolutely, positively, outrageously fugly. Sorry. Pillar-fail.
