New Stratos
I know this isn't strictly rally news but lets face it the Stratos is a piece of rallying history so I think it fits in

As a fan of Italian cars and a lover of the original Stratos I really do like it, perhaps it's just a carbon copy of the Stratos with some modern bits added but when they got it soooo right the first time why play around with it?
The front looks a bit strange without popup headlights but the back is lovely
Rule 1 of the forum, always accuse anyone who disagrees with you of bias.I would say that though.

For once a story about someone extremely priviledged putting their wealth to good use! I'm a major Stratos fan, and whilst the new car is very similar as you say Daniel, it was so right the first time why muck around with the shape etc. Am glad the strange split windscreen seen on earlier mock ups has gone.

Yes I agree the front looks a bit "bare" with those lights!

You're all gonna hate me, but I'm not that impressed. I didn't think the old stratos was that amazing to start with. The new one looks like a mix of other cars. From the front it's a Fiat Coupé, from the side it's a Toyota MR2 mk1 and from the back it's a new Corvette :
