WRC Testing

The sound is better,but now Subaru has definately lost its distinctive sound.The sound is nice but now it sounds like an C4 or Focus.
Looks promising though.

i dont thing it is simmilar to ford and c4, it is still boxer sound. it is just evolution of old one

Yep I think Focus are very quiet (to be a rally car ) and C4's are more metallic.

Completely different the sound of a C4 and a Focus. The Focus looks like an electric car inside. The C4 is just the sound from the engine sreaming!

Definitively C4 and Focus sounds are TOTALLY different ! The Fords were like Gr.N cars, we couldn't hear them (sometimes we didn't even realize they were already in sight), while C4 sound is so brutal compared to the other WRC cars... only the little Honda of the italian Betti had an higher sound trust me !
