    The Focus is terrible, probably most boring WRCar sound ever. It is quite similar to the 307 WRC, maybe no coincidence as both have motors developed Pipo. But the sound is very muffled, not agressive, and sounds like it is changing gear around 2000RPM the whole time. At least the Fiesta S2000 will sound faster, even though it will not be!

    That holds true that the WRC cars sounds better live than in TV but about ten years ago the cars sounded good in TV also. I think all Citroen uses about 1000 rpm higher revs than the other ones and it seems to pay off regarding power. Maybe the secret of Citroen’s more powerful engine is to have the best volumetric efficiency on about 1000 rpm higher revs compared to the other ones.

    I don't like the sound of Focus too!! It really don't have sound... (And I also saw it live). For sure, the S2000 will sound better!
    The only WRC car that I like to hear is the Citroen C4!
    Sorry my bad english...

    From a girls perspective...

    It is so cute! The Fiesta kinda does look like a toad, but much faster

    okay that's it, scrap the fiesta, we can't have a "cute" rallycar . Flame-spitting, lion-roaring, asphalt-scorching, gravel-eating, agressive-looking monsters, that's what a rallycar should look like. Sure the latest rallycars don't really look the part, but cute? Ah well might work.
    Rest in peace Richard

    Th Fiesta S2000 sounds and looks like a crushed beetle.
    Hope the new engine sounds better for next year.
