    You are a disgrace to this site and the Import world in general. Sell your Hype-R to someone who deserves it and end yourself.

    That man is a legend, and it is awesome to see such a wonderful tribute to a great man. RIP Colin McRae.

    Wow! That is a beautiful thing. Colin Mcrae was probably the best driver to ever compete in a subaru. He is a big hero of mine and his lose was crushing to the rally car world. But it is wonderful to see that he is so respected. I'm sure he wouldn't have wanted us to mourn his loss, but rather to celebrate his memory.


    Reps to everyone who contributed to this post.


    PS- Subaru FTMFW!

    with the disrespect you have towards McRae, you obviously have the intelligence of a 5 year old. and the complete lack of reverence and respect for the memorial of McRae, or ANY person for that matter, shows your character (or lack thereof...) and really lets everybody know what a true piece of sh!t you are, and im 100% sure that any person in their right mind would agree. i dont care if its Colin McRae, George Bush, or some random person you dont know. i said what i said because i feel that you deserve it. not because i couldnt come up with better.
