Needs to be a wide-arched unique looking car..the S202 is a great car, by far the best factory specced mechanically. But it just didn't look exotic enough to be a 'new 22B' for me.

i think they need to win a WRC manufactures championship before they do. Wasn't the 22B a kinda celibratary model cos they were doing well back then???

maybe if a driver wins the championship they might make a special edition. 'PS edition'?? (Petter Solberg)??? etc...

if you look back at all the special edition models, most are to do with the WRC in some way ( terzo - three times winning championship in a row ) etc.

my thoughts......

Strong rumours about a 'similar car' around Christmas time in Japan. 2.5/3.0L engine, big arches & full WRC replica look (Drool)

Unloading the 202 soon to make way for one.

Why do you imagine Subaru could show a car that hasn't passed the tooling stage
The images used in the Auto Express article and various Japanese Magazines recently (I would imagine) are to illustrate the overall style of the car. The only reference machine is the WRC Car

Subaru actually made the 22B to celebrate the company's 40th anniversary, and not to celebrate WRC success contrary to popular belief.

If you care to look at lasts weeks AutoExpress on page 18, you'll see what is seen be many as the 2003 version of the 22B. It's called the 'WRCar'. 320BHP

It has the worst ever rear spoiler ever seen on a car ever! It looks like some form of farmyard device plonked onto the boot. Just doesn't look right at all. The wing mirrors look a little silly too. However, it does have wider wheel arches, different fron spoiler, and Evo style bonnnet 'scoop' in front of the usual one.

Dracoro, that looks like an exact replica of the Makkinen/Solberg current car. The spoiler is a direct lift from the WRC car.
I like it!
