Hey, I have one that looks like that!

It bothers me that this is an impossible drive train. Those gears are locked in place. Also it is a single reduction, not one that can shift. I suggest using different art.

My girlfriend gave me this:

Pink wheels on the WRX because STI. Also those yellow foglight covers. And the headlights. Gah I make questionable decisions sometimes.

Every Ford SUV of this era has the same crack in the hatch:
