Default FFR Project 818
This thing lis looking pretty slick. I think it's getting beyond the "for a kit car" into something you could really dial in to a hell of a nice little sports car.

I like the looks but I don't like that it's only RWD. AWD is part of what makes the WRX so cool.

It's not trying to be a WRX or rally car of any kind, but an an affordable mid engine sports/race car. FTM, the latest incarnation can take an Eco Boost instead of the Boxer. The rest of the basic running gear is Subie though.

The GTM is awesome, but it's pretty damn big. This 818 would be much more pleasant in mixed environments.

In CA there is a Kit Car provision. Not sure how Smog is handled, probably a declaration of the source drivetrain, but I don't recall. It's possible, but probably not that easy.

They only issue like 100 of those SB exemptions a year and the waiting list is like 10 years or some stupid amount of time.
