Has a big cult following too, how about a Lancia Delta Integrale body kit for the WRC rally car look
It's not the small size that bothers me about that car, it's the fact that it's a Lancia, a brand that has a pretty poor reputation in America. I can imagine breaking down 500 miles from home in that and trying to find parts and a repair facility in the middle of Montana. Alfa, Lancia, Peugeot, SAAB enthusiasts - I admire their dedication. Those cars are for people who aren't bothered by layer upon layer of inconvenience, and are rewarded with a driving experience few of us will know.
