Could just be a conversion.

Be interesting to see if its got the larger brakes too. -------------------- Speeding doesn't kill! It never has!

I don't think we're looking at a replica, or else someone has gone through great lengths to make sure it's exact. Little things like stock exhaust and the fact that there's a GT-FOUR badge on the trunk make me think it's all factory. Most people making a replica would go for the '96+ JDM tails and debadge the car, as well as an aftermarket exhaust instead of factory GT4 exhaust. The car isn't sitting too low, which makes me think factory suspension. No sideskirts, indicative of either the fact that it's not a replica (since most of us want skirts) or someone who just really doesn't care. Appears to be RHD. I think I need to drive to Ohio and check out some of these GT4's floating around.

I talked to guy who took picture and this is what he said..He thinks he has only WRC lol ..Ive have mine here for 6 yrs
His name is Doc and he is loaded with money. He has a lot of nice cars. Lives in Deleware. He just got it last summer. I took the picture at last years Slowmotion Motorsports dyno day/meet here in Columbus. I do know he was saying his was the only WRC in the US which I guess you prove him wrong. -------------------- Old guy with the toys

Does the GT-4 have hubs that are pushed out farther (a wider stance)? The stance on that thing is perfect.

Still could be a conversion lol. You never know until you look at the VIN.
Making these cars legal in the states is a lot of work and money from all I've heard. -------------------- "A true car enthusiast can see the potential in any car"

^^No doubt it probably is a real 205. but I'm just saying it IS possible that someone could go about doing a very detailed conversion and no one could tell the difference without looking at some sort of documentation.
