I still recognize Burns as a driver. And his game is the best of all rally sims imo, I just didn't like the man as a person. Solberg is my replacement for him. I know, crazy right?
"Hard to accept?" TDU2's team obviously seems to have respect for the brand off-road quality and pedigree enough to feature it in the game... just sounded like you lacked some respect for Subaru considering 3 of the greatest drivers in Rally History happened to be driving a Subaru Impreza during the peak of their careers is all I'm saying. No hard feelings though.
Also, calling it a straight 'ricer' is a serious misinterpretation. Subarus are not ricers. They are built to look and sound powerful because they are built powerful from the factory. (they dont require aftermarket tuning to 'look fast and powerful' like highschoolers do with stock hondas/acuras) An Impreza WRX STi with 300HP on 4WD, stock rally-inspired wing and all, @ stock its only a Cobb-Stage-2 tune away from nearing the BHP output, speed and lateral agility of their Rally-raced cousin.
So not only will I be smoking you all offroad, but I'll be able to turn on a dime on the street while I roll around with my 4WD DCCD Boxer.
