So I received a phone call this morning from WALKER, and it went a little something like this:

KAOS: "Hello...?"
WALKER: "Whats up? You at home right now?"
KAOS: "Yup just working on the Vee-Dub all day today..."
WALKER: "Cool; we'll be there shortly..."

About a half hour later, "WALKER" and "ZenAutoworks" (Dave & Sean) pull up to my house...
... I was ready with my camera... lol.


(Sorry for the Blair Witch effect, but if you listen carefully, you can hear me giggling like a little school girl... ok, you don't have to listen all that hard. biggrin.gif)

This car is a dream come true for me; I can only imagine how the new owner feels. smile.gif

Somebody correct me if Im wrong, but I believe this is the first WRC GT-FOUR in Canada and its owner, WALKER:


And David was nice enough to let me have my way with his car... smile.gif


No emblems were hurt in the having of my own way:

And now who of you out there can tell me what this is a picture of: biggrin.gif biggrin.gif biggrin.gif


The interior is mint; such a great find!




I didn't really have much time to take any more pictures; but I did get to go for a quick ride in it... and wow - is it ever weird riding in the passenger seat of a right hand drive vehicle... redface.gif



The battery died on me right away, but you can see the auto-climate control and the huge bulge of a hood that the GT-Four is... lol.

Enjoy!

... I'm totally set on buying one now... smile.gif

Thanks Dave & Sean; you totally made my day!!

We're not even too sure; we noticed it just before they took off from my place... they'll have to tear it apart to see what the wiring is leading to...

As for the cost; it wasn't cheap.

61XXX KM's + WRC + CANADIAN COMPLIANCE = First born child + left testicle I'm sure.

I figured it would be about 20 times cooler than an STI but it's only about 18 times cooler.

Great car !!!

That switch adjusts the brightness of the instrument panel lighting.
Watch at the left side of steering wheel:




I guess someone broke the switch and replaced it with that stick. Don't you have that switch in your cars??

Not on a GT4.....nothing so posh on these cars....usually its a blank...on cars imported to the UK its turned into a fog light switch....if its from Japan then it`ll be whatever the previous owner intended it to be, it could be anything.
