It's not very often that Hot Wheels release plastic bodied cars, but I picked this one up the other day. After a very small amount of sanding to the front of the rear wheel arches it fits a treat on a long wheelbase Micro Scalextric chassis (1.7). Should be able to pick this car up or about a quid at most supermarkets. Can't fault the price.

Body weighs in at 6.8g including the sticky pads I mounted it with.

That's nice, I think Jim Kelly had some of these mounted on Tyco chassis last year at NSR.

He bought those quite a few years ago when Barbieco first did them. There was also a focus and an Evo, plus one other.

Hi Diesel, which shop did you buy that at?? Looks very good.

Picked this one up from Sainsburys.

Here you can see all the variations:

Bare in mind that not all these Imprezas are plastic bodied or released in the UK.

Pretty sure all the ones in that link are plastic.

These certainly are:

To me the one with no picture, the Pug, is the nicest and would probably make a decent Mod body.
