Hey guys, I want to know what is your favourite rally car and why
For me, The Toyota Corolla '98? (The hatchback one)
Remember this is on GT5 not cars that aren't on it.

The Evo IV rally car, mainly because the Evo IV is my favorite of the Evos. :D
 
Ford Focus 2009 rally car.


Why? Because I've seen it in person. Got up close, so it's serious nostalgia. Ahhhh, I love Dovenby Hall
 
Renault 5 Turbo Rally car. Just plain and simple madness. as are most mid 80's group C rally cars lol
 
Alpine A110

And the Stratos is nice too
 
Glad to see this thread is getting some replies
Keep it up!
 
I have two favorites that I can't decide between.

1990's Subaru Impreza Rally Car

1980's Audi Quattro Group B Rally Car
 
The RS200 has always been my favorite. I love the styling and the MR layout. Just a cool car all around.
 
Peugeot Turbo 16 Evo rally car (the Evo, not the ordinary one)

Or the Pajero rally raid ;)

Totally agree swell!
 
Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI Rally Car '99. I've loved this car since GT3, and the street version is also my favorite evo.
 
Lancia Delta s4, just because the thing is absolutely nuts to control... Plus I just love seeing pictures of that car in motion :)

Agree'd, the late 90's evo 5 will forever be my absolute facourite evo, especially in that dandelion yellow paint job!

Edit:or an all out machine that's all that's to be, I vote the Suzuki Escudo Pike peak #1. Just look at that rear spoiler, you could have a freakin' picnic on the darn thing....

Very difficult choice here, if there was an "All" option I'd go for that! :lol:

Breaking it down in minor parts:

For pre-Group B cars there isn't really any competition for the Lancia Stratos, it's great looking, won almost everything, and is basically a Ferrari gone rallying :dopey:

For Group B cars I feel like saying the Lancia S4 because it so well represents that era and the fearless drivers needed to tame these cars.

For Group A I'll once again go Lancia, Delta this time, again because it did cut pretty well. A close second would be the ST185 Celica, simply because of the packaging that contains it :lol:

World Rally Cars is where things get really tough to choose, so once again splitting it into minor parts:

For 90's WRC I think I'll go with Impreza '99 or either of the Lancer, as these cars remain iconic to this day. Worthy mentions are Peugeot 206 and Citroën Xsara, for the success that was to come for these. In regards to Ford Focus, the real 1999 or 2000 liveries would make me appreciate it even more.

For post-2000 WRC it's no doubt the 2003 Impreza, mainly because it's as of right now the last non-french car to win the WRC Drivers Title, and partly because I've meet the driver in person. The 2003 Lancer Evolution however is also a very good car.

Rally Raid is also no real biggie, Pajero '85, because Paris-Dakar winner.

For what I call "Rally Modified" cars, it's pretty easy: Impreza '05 RM if you don't have the DLC, Evolution X if you do. I like the looks of both and they're pretty equal in performance.

I don't have anything to say about the premium '08 WRC cars, I've said it before and will say it again, except the ST205 Celica, they've chosen the wrong one to premiumise (here's hoping we'll have McRae's '95 Impreza along with the Lancia Delta we don't know about)
 
You cant ignore the legendary Group B rally cars of the 1980's. seriously, you needed to have balls to drive those cars-putting it simply :).
When i saw the Audi Quattro Rally Car in the GT6 trailer, i was incredibly excited :drool: :drool: :drool:. I can't wait to try it out-hopefully it's in the demo :).
 
Actually, to add onto my last post (I don't want to edit it because that's pointless) I actually quite like many of the 80's rally cars, especially the Stratos. Nonetheless, I still love my evo :sly:
 
My go-to car in the game is often the CZ3 Tarmac rally car, its not a real car though as far as I know.

Got to head to Group B for real favourites - I used to love watching it in the 80s. Of the in game cars it has to be the Delta S4 for its madness. Looking forward to the Quattro...

It would be nice to see classic Mini Coopers and mk1 or mk2 Escort BDA though.
 
98' Escort RS Cosworth. Also one of my favorite road cars.
 
The RS200 has always been my favorite. I love the styling and the MR layout. Just a cool car all around.
I thought it was AWD?

On topic: Peugeot 206
 
3 favourites for me:

1 - Subaru Impreza 03. Simply a beast.
2 - Peugeot 205 T16 Evo2. A scary thrill ride.
3 - Mitsubishi Starion. One of the best engine notes on the game and fun to drive.
 
I love the repeated mention of the Group B's, and as unfond of Nissan as I am, I'm absolutely batty over the BS110 Silvia Rally Car. Going fast on gravel with a rear-drive car? HELL YES!!! (You should see my GT350R)

Forgot that one 👍
