AWESOME!

Totally new livery!.......I like it!

Spoiler is the same as the Focus I see.

The livery makes it look more like a touring car I reckon.....look forward to seeing it on stage!

spoiler coming to a hatch near you!

Looie

So if I'm reading this right, this model is based on a WRX, not an STI as you would expect..... see quote on the site as below...

"As some of you have spotted, there is no bonnet scoop. This is down to homologation - with the car being based on the Impreza, there would not be enough STI's made to support it this year, therefore the base car for WRC2008 is a standard Impreza - and thus no bonnet scoop..."

So - that should mean that next years car will I assume be based on the STI, which of course will mean a slightly different look I suppose

Which to me means that this car is a bit of a "fill in/stop gap" until the proper one comes out.

Still nice though.....

Doesn't need a scoop anyway its got a FMIC

The only reason the current car has a blanked off Scoop is down to Homologation

SirFozzalot

The old WRC cars (2003 - 2005) only run with a WRX scoop on the bonnet and not an STi one anyway.

When we were last at Prodrive they had moved something else so that it was air cooled from the scoop rather than the intercooler. frayz will remember I was just dribbling at the time....
