Awesome to see a RWD rally car again!

ouch. I wonder what the parts will cost individually.

I doubt it's worth it. according to the article, it's only making 230HP with upgrades to the brakes, suspension, and transmission with some weight savings. I can't imagine it's $60K+ worth of upgrades lol. most of it is the exclusivity

It's not just the cost of the parts(which are not even close to being cheap, btw) it's putting everything together, homologated, etc. And don't get fooled about the numbers, R3's are serious rallying machines, great to watch. Add the RWD factor and :happyanim:

Not saying it's a bargain, but it costs about the same than any other R3 kit. Even R2's are far from affordable...

Here is some additional info

Damn, that guy is having so much fun on the tracks ^

This reminds me of the Toyota Celica GT-Four 4th gen. One of my favorite cars.

Looks like a Daruma. Does the driver paint in the headlights after he wins?
