Y'know one thing I've never done on the internet is go looking for all the cars in that film... I'm now inspired.

The old Impreza coupes have such perfect proportions, god drat.

And this is so loving true, it's easily the best looking of all the Imprezas and you should've seen my face when they released that bug eye bullshit and every other model afterwards just got uglier...

I loving love XJ220s, but sorry, it's too fussy a colourscheme for them.

I like them best in the somewhat generic silver. Like a thuggish spaceship.



No-one else seems to have managed to make a supercar that just looks so slick.

Group C colour schemes are basically cheating though, there's no way to make a car from that era look bad.

I love how pedestrian looking the engine bay is too.



Just a crummy old 3S-GTE, the tractor engine with a motorbike style head. They made so loving many of them and I feel vaguely blessed by the fact that I could own a car with fundamentally the same lump for not much money.

We have a homologation ST205 sitting in our garage. The fact you could/can buy these things blows my mind.

I think about that quite often. Like, you could just stroll into a showroom in the 80's and practically buy a race car, then register it and use it daily on the street. :psyduck: Bummer that regular people are so stupid we can't do that now a days.

I wouldn't say the Homologation ST205 is a built out rally car by any means (considering they did a bunch of changes to the suspension to get it to actual good prep). That's like saying you bought an STi or an EVO, or poo poo even an old Galant VR4 and it's a "race car" because those were also basically the same thing.

True, but it still had the antilag system installed on the car, even if it was disabled.

Homologation should never have gone away, especially with rallying. "If you don't sell it, you can't race it" is such a good rule.

Absolutely agreed.



I used to have a customer who had a Lancia 037, but he never brought it to show us at the shop. :(
He did tell us about how utterly terrifying it was to drive though!
