    SUBARU is Dead......

    Former rally driver Penti Airikala mentioned in an interview Subaru like Audi is dead not just for the position of his engine also distance from floor.... He has been very strong with this affirmation. Not a good press for David Richards, and Japanese Corporation (attached the hyperlink to access the interview). What do you think ?????????????????

    Rule 1 of the forum, always accuse anyone who disagrees with you of bias.I would say that though.

    There are two rules for success

    Hmmm, I understand the "having the weight in the middle of the car" bit, but not about getting it high up. Doesn't that go against all performance car theory? I don't see Ferrari making an MPV because they handle better!

    In matters of physics I would rather believe a trained engineer a la Christian Loriaux than... Since mr Airikkala got into very public fight in Vauhdin Maailma with Gronholm about nose-first driving technique (as opposed to scandinavia flick), I've had my doubts about angry opinions.
