Take a look at the Jalopnik post. Your disappointment will be immediately reversed.

The thing I will never get with these idiots: for the time and effort and money, he could have easily had a real WRX.

It's not hard to make one generic-looking car look like a different generic-looking car.

Every time I work on an older 3-door Accent, I want to trim the wheelwells about a foot higher and swap in an AWD Talon drivetrain.

Why?

Coolest looking WRCar evar: (EVAR)

GIS for "Accent WRC" got a parade of Wookiee LARPers as one of the hits. I will not ask why.

But those were the best days of WRC in my opinion. The cars bore much more than a passing resemblance to the street vehicles, and you could see Ford and Citroen. And Peugeot. And Mitsubishi. And Subaru. And Skoda (with the Octavia, not the Felicia!). And, yes, Hyundai...

I would approve if he would have cloned THAT, but to build a Hyundabaru Accerezza is just stupid.

There I said it.

Stupid.
