The only problem with owning one of those would be calling it by name: "Dude, I heard that you got a new car. What did you get?"  

"Uhhhhhh, it's a Clio" 

Yeah, the name is a little too cutesy but that's better than the name that Renault gave to the limited-edition, high-performance version of the Clio Sport.  They only made 800 of them but they were real pocket rockets in terms of suspension.  It would smoke a Sentra SE-R Spec V on the track but I think that Renault went a bit overboard with the car's name, even though the name was a tribute to Renault's first F1 Manufacturing win.  The name of this collector's car version was:

       CLIO RENAULTSPORT 197 F1 R27

It was never imported here, in part because the name wouldn't fit in the model line of any state's vehicle title!

Enjoy,
Greg Laws
