I doubt it, stock speed3 suspension is weak, and if megane is anything close to clio trophy's suspension, it'll kill it on the track.

If 300hp brz with stiffened suspension, bigger brakes and tires, under 2900lbs is announced, I will be dumping my preorder. That should give you true cayman performance for 1/2 the price.
