Oh I purposely ordered the 07 Subbie as I hate the 08 STIhatch but loves the performance.

Yeah from what other posts have been telling me the dark impact shell should fit inside the DF-03Ra if you have the 07 Monte Carlo WRC

I am also thinking about getting a basher body from HPI but do not plan on changing tires/wheels. 190mm HPI bodies are a bit wider so it might look funny...any suggestions or experience?

I am thinking about the old 97 Subaru Impreza HPI body 190mm
