Anyone know what this is? Searched the internet and I've come across a couple of different ones. Going with a different design for my new Stilo helmet.

The yellow or the blue, and surely it depends on vintage?

The blue, I was never aware there was a difference between the colours but it'd be the S14-style colour that I'd be after. The grey on the back bumpers looks similar to gun metal grey?

this is not SWRT mate

How's that mate? The S14 was run in those colours in 2008 in the WRC wasn't it?

my understanding is that it was Subaru, but not SWRT in those colours


Withdrawal from WRC

Subaru announced it was withdrawing its team from competition, with immediate effect, on 16 December 2008. At the time, it said that "this sudden decision was in response to the widespread economic downturn that is affecting the entire automotive industry", and came one day after competitor Suzuki exited the sport.

I may be wrong on that tho.

I thought the rally team was SWRT, they changed the colour scheme to go more corporate (ie SUBARU written up the side of the car rather than a logo) when the new car was launched. My knowledge of this is all very fague tho, I'm only in rallying for the past 3 1/2 years!

Yeah, possibly. Anyway it doesn't really answer the question does it.

the blob / hawk cars are available in World Rally Blue 'o2c'. Never seen the S14 or replica parked next to the more famous SWRT coloured cars to see if the blue is identical.
