Beautiful set of cars! Can't wait to see the cars that make the 08+ Impreza another legend.
Anti lag and the boxer rumble is just amazing
i have a gt turbo forester 4 years now = FANTASTIC MACHINE !
I think I just fainted with excitement!
Seriously though, I've seen N1 WRC in person a few times now (it made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up) but I haven't seen it being driven properly like that since Colin. Great stuff, what a machine!
I remember watching Colin McRae in the Impreza at Rally Australia in the mid 1990's - spectacular, impressive and any other adjective you can think of!
The P18WRC impreza actually raced, but never officially: it was bought in 1999 by Procar and run by Diego Oldrati. The N1WRC in 1997 was bought by Franco Uzzeni and Aimont Racing, before they were bought back by Subaru. So both those cars were exported in Italy for a long time.
Absolutely brilliant video, more of this please!
I like the idea that the Group A needed to be driven to get the most out of it, I think that's been lost a bit in the current form of the WRC. The drivers were stars because...well you had to be, to drive the things quick and the car brands were all unique in their own way.
Love the look of the 22b but the 555 sound does it for me!
What a fabulous film, with simply the best cars
the two classis for me 😍 classics all day , they made subaru what they are today , I own a 97 uk turbo impreza 👍
Oh My God How Much i LOVE the Group A sound!!! it's my absolutely favourite Music comin from a car engine....there are no Ferrari or Lamborghini noises that can replace this......
Love the Sound of the 1996 !
I worked with jeff jones last year for a few weekends on the brc and hes one real nice guy. I belive he used to drove works proton/nissan cars
best subaru vid yet keep up the good work
I like how the older Impreza's looked
the 90's impreza were the best!!!!
1996 Impreza was the best sounding one.
legendary cars!
Forever Colin.
Love the Group. N Imprezas, I had a ride with Geoff Jones last Wednesday, the man Co driving, He's an amazing driver! I loved it :)
what a great video about the best rally cars ever
You lucky bugger getting the ultimate boys day out like that! Nice driving too mate.
I had a ride with the test driver Geoff Jones 3 weeks ago in his Impreza N16, it was very fast, and fun,
@12valvepower4 There's only one Mcrae brother died. Colin Mcrae, Alister is still alive.
For me the 555 WRX the best looking and sounding rallycar ever. And not because McRae.
That WRC car is SO badass...
beautifull the 2 classic scoobies...
Awesome video.
blue yellow 98' impreza: best look ever.. todays simpreza its not bad... but it looks like a Hundai city car..
Brilliant
when the 1996 impreza appears, the name, bunta fujiwara springs to my mind.
yes mate,felt exactly the same.
me quedo sin duda con GC8C 1996
old school for me.
The torque vectoring on this car is obvious, too bad the production version of STI doesn't have it. But you can clearly see how it pushes the car into a turn from behind.
Great video :)
the Subaru rally car is awesome !!! 10 out of 10
i know this video is old but from what i been reading looks like they might do just that with the 1.6 flat 4 coupe!
@bentleyv8t its all about the body kit
That place must have smelled awesome.
2001 subaru sti champion led by richard burns
@AZULES88MU I think it's the 99 version
The Display Of 97 Rally Car its not working.......the display stoped on 1 st gear
i lvoe my 05 wrx. us spec. street stock.. but with mud tires.. great for mud and snow and what
hmm it seems that setup is as much the reason for the WRC and group A differences. An aggressive tarmac setup on both would be more interesting, but yes modern rally cars make it easier for the driver as it's faster.
"'we are here for a good time, not a long time" CM
Cant wait for dirt 3 GROUP B IS BACK BABY!!!!
should have drove the 2008 WRC that dropped out as well! Great video tho idk how many times I have watched it lol
@bentleyv8t Yes.....because this car is not really a colin´s WRC car....it´s just for exibition
Ahaha funny i just bought a "modest" 2011 subaru impreza 5 door 2.5i (no turbocharged models i.e wrx/ wrx sti) but my goodness the subaru is so rewarding too drive so was the mitsubishi lancer of its same class... but I picked up the impreza...very understated car compared to its more praised older brothers. ( have test driven the sti but not the evo x)
Fanatastic video btw
Please please drive the 2008 wrc hatch with these. Or a 1.6 wrc vs 2.0 it's hard to find good comparison fiesta and focus
ThaReal CLo you're talking about homologation which hasn't been required for decades even the group a cars had different gearbox (some of the cosworths had 7 speed sequential)
none of the wrc spec cars are relevant to the road cars, even impreza and evo. homologation must return for the wrc to be any good.
"If in doubt, flat out." CM
Colin McRae RIP u legend
Group n looks nice
does the WRC car have active diff's? Is the Group A car more powerful? Does the Group A car still have a top mounted intercooler? Does the WRC car have equal length headers? Twenty years on and I still can't get full accurate specs on the differences between these two cars.
Ric James id be surprised if works group a from 96 didn't have active diffs let alone wrc
ah gotta love them impretzels
@Vladamor is true, sorry, pero que guapo esta puff, yo quiero uno joooo
Impreza WRC 98 beautiful
amazing how the old impreza is still the best.
R.I.P. Colin McRae
@TangoR34 when i play dirt2 i have that phrase burned into my head
Love my Scoob but would I swap it for that 555 soundtrack? Yep!
SUBARU FTW!
the white subie needs more rear camber, maybe stiffer too..
leadfoot driver what Makes you say that?
me too.
Good driver... that was nice handling XD
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍subaru impreza Number one
Better yet, bring back Group B ! It looks far more exciting than what we have now.
Colin McRae won the World Rally Championship in 1995 not 1996. 1996 World Rally Champion was Tommi Makinan.
He said the race winning car for 1996 rally Catalunya, not the yearly championship, and he's correct.
What he tried to emphasise was that the car itself was actually raced and won, not the other two.
is it just me or does this 97 WRC car look different to all the other 97 WRC Imprezas?
@AZULES88MU No pasa na hombre... Ya yo tambien
@PhotoRelax
wins rarely come overnight in F1, and besides in a seriously bad chassis a good engine won't help squat
Cosworth's DFV is still the most successful engine ever made in F1
english drivers are quite good, especially when I drove their in london
I might be able to get the old Subaru second hand for my first car. Not the rally version of course. Hahah
Zostawcie Colina !!!
groups a is just omg
22b was the best looking impreza by far.
mmtot shame it couldn't go rallying
rally histroy was shown
Only 555 A8!
who makes the 22B wheels
gmax876 standard are BBS
gmax876 the impreza wrc and group a wheels were speedline until around 2000
block who?
@GJef89 get mozilla and get adblock plus or f5
R I P MCRAE BROTHERS
@12valvepower1 There is no group B here....
555 thumbs up
4500
why would anyone dislike this video? weirdos.
@dilawer321 group b :P
group a is best
555 FORLIFE !!!!!!!!
do another alcyone, so it will be 1600cc flat 4 turbo.. rallycross the alcyone!
car at 2:50!!!
omg
3:10 - 3:20
omg
I understand fully the capability of the current grp "n" impreza.... it is over rated and slow, in most domestic championships in 2010 it got its arse handed to it by the evo x... the other 2 cars in this video are icons.... nearly as big as the legend who developed and drove them.. a gentleman i had the pleasure of meeting twice in my life... Colin still is my own personal hero and the fact that 2.58 of this vid is wasted on a PR attempt from Prodrive is a waste in my humble opinion ..
Era muito melhor com 2 portas.
All those poor tires.......
if anybody wants to get into the crack business to buy that STi, let me know, cuz im down
@boysofwexford
Group N piece of shit ?!?! Please ... do not be so rude if you have no idea about it ...
i think the EVO is better.....
boooring
