Touring cars sure, they’re all just tube frame things with panels draped on.  Currently rally cars at least require it to be based on a road car!

I know someone who had one when new.  It was magnificent.  You should absolutely get one right now!

“Even I never really thought of the R32 GT-R as a Group A success story.”

I’m guessing a bunch of factors. If Nissan was in any way supportive of any Group A effort in the UK, they’d probably want to run something they could actually sell.

Have you driven one?  For any length of time?  If you were seriously looking to buy one I’d say drive one for a bit first.

Remember when we could drive through Europe...without worrying about the whole plague thing?

Next year I’m hoping for a Group 7 and Can-am extravaganza.

I had one of these when I lived in Canada.  Same story, couple of grand.  Had to re-run the brake lines and then the clutch and it was awesome after that.

To say nothing of resale value...

It’s hard to see where the brand goes from here

Let me guess. It’s a carbon tub cell thing with a twin turbo V8 and a gearbox by...fuck I can’t even be bothered. McLaren, stop this shit. It was boring 14 models ago. You’re not fooling anyone and you’re making an arse of yourself.  Knock it off.
