Honda Hatchbacks similar to WRC winners Peugeot 206?
I watch WRC a lot. I think it makes nascar look like a bunch of kids with soapboxes.
I've noticed the peugeot 206 look A LOT like some Honda Civics. Anybody agree?
Also, the new WRC video:

Sweet video, Europe has always had its thing for hot hatches, it is understandable why they would all look similiar.

Hehe, when I went to Malaysia to Visit my dad, he showed me around town and the local spot where all the "racers" hang out. Dayum, there was a seemingly endless line of 206's, Lancer Evolutions and Ducati 996's (well only about 4 Ducatis). I loved it.

j/k.....WRC is awesome. The best is forest trails in Wales, in the cold, gray rain......
Aren't the 206's running a custom AWD system like the Tiburons?

they really do look like show cars with big spoilers and kits. but the cars exterior appearance do have a purpose when they race.

Hatches rule... damn I've got the hatch fever again. I miss my old EF Si hatches... the coupe's just not the same.
Good to see there's fellow WRC rallye fans here. It's got to be the best form of automotive racing around.

Nascar is just a bunch of drunks playing out childhood dreams of going really really fast around an oval.
