Foxy has a point, but the RS was never fully designed to be sold to Joe public due to its basics to become a rally/race car. Its all about being cost effective, get the basis of the car ready to be abused and put the basic parts on to keep the rest of the car legal until it is stripped and they're replaced with performance parts :D

I kind of had this debate last night on facebook about basic cars and luxury cars, some people don't want all the thrills they want to feel the car and the rs would be a good choice, but I suppose I also got told that a 1.9 tdi would eat an Evo..........

Forged 5rs on piston heads and a rather nice 6rs

Think the 8rs has to top the rarity list...
