you nit-whitty- its not called a 206 WRC - the street version used to homologate the rally body work and to make it long enough to qualify as a WRC car is called the 206 GT - check the link i provided above for pics of the real thing.

Yes I know. It came out wrong in my other post. I meant to say they need to make a 206 WRC for the street and bring it over here. Kinda like the WRX. The 206 GT doesn't have a wide body like the WRC car.

There are three ways to do things: the right way, the wrong way, and the Max Power way!
Isn't that just the wrong way?
Yeah, but faster!

like i said - its the car used to homolagate the 206 into WRC rally. The standard 206 is too short to be a WRC car - so to rac eit they had to make it longer- TA-DA! the 206 GT - with the extended front and rear bumpers (made in the correct 2500 unites to satisfy the regs) - check the pic- and tell me that those are the standard bumpers of a 206. Notice the wide mouth front bumper with a grill insert- well take out the insert and you have the WRC bumper.

he's not talking about the bumpers. he is talking about the extended wheel flares on the front and rear.
so, get the 206GT as Horse has so aptly stated, and then pick up a set of extended fender flares and VOILA! you have your race car.

206's are cool. I vacationed in Ireland a few years ago, and they were all over the place. The bigger Peugeots are stunning, though.
