I think Bigfoot is blurry, that's the problem. It's not the photographer's fault. Bigfoot is blurry. And that's extra scary to me, because there's a large, out-of-focus monster roaming the countryside.

its an old rally car, they have to be production cars in order to enter in rally. but I'm sure the street versions don't have the same specs... as always.


the best Fords (IMO) were not produced in the US, which kind of seems wrong to me. I like the Escort RS Cosworth

This thing is really sweet. And, the street versions of the rally cars were closer than you think. I know the Metro 6R4 and Lancia Delta S4 street cars were pretty wicked. I thought the RS200 looked like a 1st gen Tallon from a first glance, but it does share lines with the MR2 now that you mention it.
