2007 McRae R4

The Colin McRae R4 Performance Car was unveiled last week at the Goodwood Festival of Speed. This new car is meant to be a true racer, suitable for rallying, rally cross, circuit racing and ice racing. Developed by 1995 World Rally Champion - Colin McRae, it will be available to customers in the first quarter of 2007.
''The Goodwood Festival of Speed is a paramount symbol of the passion for motor racing'', says Colin McRae, former Rally World Champion and the man behind this project. ';'I could not imagine a better stage for the first static display of a car which is being conceived exclusively for the pleasure of driving, to accommodate the wishes of professional and amateur drivers and to reignite the passion in motorsport fans around the world''.
The challenge of conceiving a new performance car from a blank sheet of paper started in January 2005, when Colin first imagined building a car that would incorporate the facets able to excite both the driver and the spectator. Six months later the project was launched and by the end of 2005, after much background research and planning, the final specification of the car was finalized.
