Since Citreon, Peugeot, Skoda, Toyota, Ford and SEAT all done quite well in WRC before especially Citreon and Peugeot, why dun they come out a Rally breed road cars like WRX and Evo? Since Citreon and Peugeot was so strong in WRC now, i think they should come out the rally breed car to fight with WRX and Evo market. Bot to forgot the old days Ford Cosworth was in the league as well. But now.....

cost and tehy dont believe in ASS for modded cars. Cars running too hard have a shorter life span than eco cars

ASS = After Sale Service
 
I guess its abt Branding...

Also the sales figures for continental cars are usually high for 4 Door Family Sedans and the likes, why would they wanna risk so much money on a market that is pretty saturated and that already has its set of big guns?

Especially the Evo and WRX, these models have a sure footing and there loads of aftermarket stuff for these models....

My 2 Cents la :rolleyes:
