boy i can taste the carcasam from that one. would be a decent car-well technically it is but what a fool.

to each his own i guess though. maybe he's sponsored! HAHA

I wasn't joking...I was making a reference to a movie ("Ya like crack don't cha?" can't remember what movie though). I seriously do like the way this car looks...I have no idea how good it is but I'm sure they wouldn't bring it to a rally car showcase if it wasn't any good (especially when you can look across the street and see professional cars like the WRX of old and Celica GT4 of old). I know they used to race 4WD 7's long time ago (Millen), so maybe they've converted this one. Hey the 7 does have excellent balance (although on gravel it's a completely different ball game), maybe they have something going...

That car might look ok if all the stickers were gone.

One question though. That is only the 2nd FC I have seen with those fender flares. The other car was in an Options magazine from Japan.

Any idea who owns this car and is it in the US? I would love to find a source for those fender flares.

I'm not sure who makes those fender flares, I like the stickers (and I don't think you'll get many sponsors if you don't display their names ) it adds to the color scheme. The car isn't in the US though.

1: rally cars rock.
Rally rx-7s are better.

2: WTF is up with that honda civicish thing beside it? its a box! wow shortness

Probably would make a decent rwd rally car (yes there are classes for 2wd rally cars, not everything is 4wd). Sure its a rally car though? that splitter doesnt look like it would through a rally.

Yep it's a rally car, I forgot what convention it was at though. I thought the same about the splitter, but I'm pretty sure they don't run at that ride height while racing anyhow . And I've also seen the 7's that rip it up in the 2wd class, but it's just interesting to think about 4wd 7's.

Warsteiner is excellent beer, but I would much rather see shiny, glass smooth paint.

I think that the black car beside it is an old Fiat Punto.

What can you say people need money and advertisement can bring lots of money and in racing you need a steady supply of money to keep up with repairs, upgrades, etc. What would you do in this case, a company offers you to pay for anything you want to do to a car as long as you put that ugly *** sticker on the car? Would you accept the money or say I don't need you people to make my dream car.

thats what i was thinking. maybe a tarmac event but it wouldn't make it through a gravel event. wonder where they rally in japan? i'd be afraid of taking out a line of bike riders.
