Question

Evo magazine have published what looks like a photoshop image of an Impreza WRC for the road.
How true are the rumours that Subaru will release such a car by the end of the year???
Is it true or false?
How much would you estimate this car would cost if it is to be produced??
What are your thoughts and is it worth getting ready to re mortage the house
Cheers

Nige

Nige sound like a bit of Jack a Nory to me, just a photoshopped WRC.

I read about it in Auto Express too - it has that crazy "lego" looking rear-spoiler off the current WRC cars. Will try to dig out the article - might still be on their web site though.

Defintely photoshopped WRC, if you look at the article on the AutoExpress website, it shows a rear view, featuring the correct number plate of one of the WRC cars.......

Racing seats and bits of roll cage also give it away. It's a pretty poor fake...

yes but that is because it is too early to have any *actual* shots, it doesn't mean its not in production

I'm sure it wouldn't get in all those mags if there wasnt some truth.
