After three consecutive victories at the Dakar Rally, Volkswagen has set itself new aims. By 2013 Volkswagen will develop a near-300-hp rally vehicle with a 1.6-litre TSI engine and four-wheel drive based on the Polo.

Good. Maybe Mitsubishi will get the message.

So subaru and mitsu drop out, now this? the new sti's are pretty much just glorified legacy's so fuck them, they've lost what made them unique, the rally(ugly) styling
Have to admit, the Ford Fiesta is ripping new assholes out there, though.
Fucking love me some WRC. That VW is pretty cool looking too.

I'd probably take a new Polo over a new Golf anyday, I think the Polo encapsulates what the Golf was about. The Golf these days is huge.
When was the last thing VW participated in rallying?
