I wonder if that would be the prototype of a maybe design for an RS Fiesta ... that would be awesome. ... at the moment though ... that body looks pretty hideous and I am not talking about the hush hush paint.

Spy Shots: First images of Ford Fiesta S2000 rally car
Filed under: Motorsports, Spy Photos, Performance, Europe, Hatchback, Ford
CAR has just published what are believed to be the first pictures of the new Ford Fiesta S2000 rally car. With a few extra mods, it's set to take on all comers as Ford's 2011 WRC contender as well. It makes sense, because Ford has already confirmed (along with Citroen) that plan to enter both classes and they've confirmed that the Fiesta is the car they plan to run.
S2000 cars run naturally aspirated engines generating about 270 horsepower, while WRC cars can be turbocharged and run with tweaked bodywork.
The pics were shot during a shakedown run in Cumbria, England. According to CAR, a second car should be ready by the end of October with full homologation starting in January 2010. M-Sport is once again behind the build for Ford which reportedly took just six months this time around.
