I can get you one cheaper

They are still being made and raced by a company called RSD in the UK.
The UK club had a meet there earlier this year...I am sure I posted pics or a link on here somewhere..

That car is beautiful. It is too bad the South Korean economy is wavering, Hyundai's rally efforts could have continued without letup. I wish I had $78,287.91 CAD to waste. Though that seems awfully high. How much did Libra Racing spend on the SCCA Pro Rally Tibs?

It does sound like a lot, but look at what Key Performance did for its race cars. They are stripped to the frame, acid dipped, all the joints are then welded, reassembled with custom seats, roll cage, racing fuel tank, etc. There is a lot of labour that goes into the manufacturing of one of those cars. And because it is British, you can probably add at least another 25% - 50% onto the cost of doing it compared to Canada or the States.

Yeah, I know it is worth every penny due to the level of parts and the man hours put into it. I'm just angry that I don't have $78,000!

Libra Racing spends right at $80K transforming a factory Tib into a SCCA Prorally monster. And that doesn't include the price of the car. :??:

That car could not be driven on the street, therefore I'll take the EVO or STi. :duh:

And that body kit is the factory bumper/skirts from the Europe only Coupe F2 Evolution edition. It's extremely hard to get, and incredibly expensive (since it's a "dealership" part).
