the-missile:

we can't really compare the Megane RS and the Alpine...it is really different categories.

front engine, front wheel drive and tweaked to track capabilities.

real coupe, center engine, rear wheel drive...tweaked to mountain roads with track capability...

I hope you're right but I don't see someone who is seriously interested in getting a Boxster or a Cayman, getting an Alpine instead. Or maybe the Alpine will attract a completely different clientele than the Megane RS: I could imagine some nostalgic car lovers and/or people who love the French lifestyle. I assume Renault conducted some thorough marketing research before launching the Alpine...
