Have you got any rear shots of the wrx ute?

^^For all you know mate he might go riding or something every weekend and puts a bike in the back. Of course I would have just put a tow ball on it.

Of course, why didn't i think of that. A lowered wrx, on 18's converted into a ute... the perfect means of transporting a dirtbike to the best riding spots.

I admire what looks from here to be a neat job. Very original. But I'm not a fan.

Remember most dirtbikes are <150kg
I'm not saying its ideal (far from it) but it is possible that it might be used for light stuff

Its definately different
I'd imagine the rear end would be sloppy as with no supports in place.
Cool concept but not too great in practise

You're right.
Try getting 150kg dirtbike into the tray without a tailgate.

I completely agree with you. Interesting concept. Shit in practice.

Hahaha, I only just saw it doesn't have a tailgate!!
So its just a ute in appearance.
What a waste of a shell, sloppy handling and can't put anything decent in the back

I guess it would be ok as a parts collector, as long as you don't have to put anything too big or too heavy in the back. Otherwise it's a good way to fuck up a perfectly good car!

I'd say the ute was based on a wagon body, be easier to implement and weld up versus the sedan route. Either way, its definitely an acquired taste.............sex spec perhaps.
