Default Quattro S1E2 Replica

Just spotted this over on Speedhunters and thought it was pretty cool, so I thought I'd post it up. Its a replica S1E2 quattro...







...which isn't anything new, but peeping underneath reveals a familiar looking sight...



...newage Impreza running gear and floor pan! :thumbup: Cut up (for a shorter wheelbase) and with a heavily chopped Audi 80 GT body dropped on top...



...all the Subaru suspension points have been retained...



...but the EJ20 removed and the "proper" Audi engine fitted instead:





Possibly not everyones cup of tea, but I thought it was a great bit of engineering and a convincing looking replica: guessing it works out a bit cheaper than a real S1E2 as well!
