Dunno how they plan on selling the new Impreza now... I'd imagine a fair chunk of sales were because of the WRC

They will just do what everyone else is doing and offer buy 1 get 5 free

I've been looking at one over the last week or so and they can't be doing that badly, because they weren't willing to shift at all on the price - even considering all the wheels need a re-furb and the tyres are almost done already!

Was an RB320 right enough, that might have had something to do with it lol
