Tamiya 24218 1/24 Scale Subaru Impreza WRC 1999 Miniature Build  [24218]

Miniature Tribute to the 1999 Subaru Impreza WRC

The Impreza WRC has left a strong mark on rallying, and the 1999 model is a key chapter. This Tamiya 24218 1/24 scale kit recreates the car's defining lines and rally character, making it a satisfying project for modellers who enjoy period accuracy.

Key Rally Engineering Shown in Scale

The competition Impreza featured an all-aluminium horizontal four-cylinder turbo motor and a vertically mounted gearbox to improve balance and control. Later upgrades on the 1999 car included an electronic throttle and a semi-automatic six-speed gearbox. The kit translates these engineering highlights into visual details for an authentic miniature.

Build Feedback and Presentation

Assembly delivers crisp panel lines and realistic surface detail that reward careful painting and finishing. When complete, the model looks right at home on a display stand or within a rally diorama celebrating late 90s WRC machines.
