Louder than the R3Ts and N/R4s so that's loud enough for me!
A few months ago, Honda spoke of the idea of returning to Formula 1 as an engine supplier when the new engine regulations come into effect in 2014, and that any further motorsport programmes would depend on the success of the Civic being run in the World Touring Car Championship by JAS; ie, they won't expand until they feel the Civic is a success (and it does look pretty strong in the hands of Gabriele Tarquini). It's since been suggested that they will return to Formula 1 in 2015. That's going to be an expensive proposition, so while an R5 Civic would be nice, I don't think it will be a priority any time soon.Quote:

Polo R is equipped with 2.0 TSI engine, Polo R WRC uses purpose built "global engine" not coming from stock production.
Anyway according to the new rules there is no problem to build R3 car with engine from another car of the same carmaker but still I would bet VW doesn't plan R3T car, at least not in close future.
As VW has said that they don’t even make a RRC car at this moment. Focus on WRC and it’s looking very promising.
