I don't think it's real number for Subaru Cup engine. In my opinion it has much less.

Also dont compare Norwegian snow/gravel with other gravels.Norwegian gravel is like asphalt comparing with Greece Middle east Turkey,Portugal,south america etc.

Problem in today rallying is NOT the cost of an even brand new N4.
A new evo X or almost new evo9 you can buy it for less 100k these days.
Dont mention n15s cause prodrive want to make profits with a car that is not faster or more reliable than an evo and wants 140k from your pocket.
Very good examples light used are at 60k- 80k.
So s2000 with a cost @ 250k is noway near a full n4 car which is 1/3 of cost.
S2000 can t be serviced from a local garage as almost all n4s.
Spares of N4 cars you can find everywhere in every country at 1/5 of cost of s2000.
N4 is not the problem guys.Thousands of them for 20+years in every country,and hundrets of championships all over the world prove it.

But the car is only on part of the total costs. Remember reading in the Finnish magazine VM, where Juho Hänninen told that his budget for a PWRC season was 500.000 euros and that didn’t include the car.“Don’t eat the yellow snow” Frank Zappa
