    The real impression was even more clear for me. When I was in Ypres Fiesta was almost impossible to hear before You see it while the 208 You could hear from a big distance on same places.

    2 ltr, 275hp.

    How big is it? Like golf?
    I wish it was that, it looks good. Looks like the WRX will become a big saloon: https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=20...ed=0CAkQ_AUoAQ

    That model might be more suitable for touring car racing but it's nowhere near the size of the Fiesta etc. I hope Subaru does make an R5 rally car though, preferably a shortened Impreza (separate model from the WRX)

    As it was already pointed out few posts back the BRZ has so placed engine that it's impossible to drive front wheels.

    Rumours say that there will be at least another Fiesta R5 in Paraguay.
    Besides that, there's a driver in Brazil that will probably buy a R5 soon. Last rumours says that there will be 2 R5 in Brazil in 2014.

    The Peugeot sounds a lot better than the Ford but it is still lacking some low down aggression in sound and performance. Still no anti-lag?

    The rules for R5 don't allow direct by-pass of air to the exhaust. That limits the anti-lag function because all air must go through engine throttle valve.
