Default Prodrive to build own STi-based sports coupe

Not bullshit. I just got the latest issue of Autocar through in the post. David Richards (Ex-BAR boss, current Prodrive boss) wants the car to be ready by the end of this year, to showcase how quickly Prodrive can develop and build a car. It's supposed to use various parts from the Subaru Impreza, such as the suspension, AWD transmission, engine, etc., but wrapped up in a super lightweight body. DR estimates the price to be somewhere around £40k max, but with the performance to match a Gallardo or the F430.

Sounds absolutely sick. I can't wait. 8)
