Not even close. The Genesis being overpriced does not mean it competes in any way with the Nissan Z.


The Scion RWD conversion is a grey area of the rules at best. FWD to RWD conversions should have been outlawed for drift competitions to keep the chassis legitimate. NASCAR is a spec series, the engines are built by Toyota to certain specs for the series but the advantage for Toyota is advertising not development.

Ford has been rallying via custom chassis configurations since the Escort Cosworth which wasn't even an Escort drivetrain. I'm sure quite a few of you know more about this story than me. The drivetrain was mostly from the Ford Sierra the midsize and was a RWD car for Ford of Europe.,am I right?

My point is don't compare the Subaru rally cars to the Ford rally cars. The Fiesta is using the old Cosworth drivetrain as well and is therefore a bastard of a car, to use a vulgar word of which I ask your forgiveness.
