Fucking awesome! I love Colin and everything he does..

It looks like a rally car, sounds like a rally car.. I hope its street legal in the US!

Any word if any big car manufacturers are lending him a helping hand? (prodrive/suburu?)

:drool: Any car designed by any Rally driver is going to be awesome. At least now we know what colin has been doing with his free time

P.S-200th post woo!

i guess the weight will be light for a 4wd and 2.5l NA 350hp is bound to be some nice screamer..

Very cool! Is it mid-engine? Looks kind of like a tricked out mid-engine Reneault Clio.
