    Suzuki ? Come on, 2008-2009-2010 ... 3 (!) complete years and you say they are wasting something

    Anyway S2000 seems good, nice sound, and probably nice speed in a couple of years ...

    Well it depends on how good they use those three years, S2000 was a dead end from the start, were did the cheap car go?

    At least they are cheaper than WRC don't you think ? Plus many other manu could enter WRC because they won't be so behind like now (look at Suzuki...). Opposite, they are probably ahead ! Think about FIAT, Peugeot, VW-Skoda, MG, etc.
