About the Subaru Impreza WRC #5 R. Burns / R. Reid Rally de France 1999 AUTOart 1:18

TL;DR: This AUTOart 1:18 diecast reproduces Richard Burns and Robert Reid's number 5 Subaru Impreza WRC from Rally de France in 1999, cast in the blue-and-gold livery that defined Subaru's factory rally program through the late 1990s.

Richard Burns' partnership with co-driver Robert Reid became one of the most popular pairings in World Rally Championship history, and this 1999 Impreza captures them mid-season in Subaru's signature colors.

AUTOart's Livery Precision on the WRC Impreza

The Impreza's boxy rally silhouette, flared arches, and prominent rear wing give AUTOart plenty of surface area to get right, and the brand's zinc alloy casting holds those wide arches without the warping that lighter materials can suffer over time. The blue paint and gold BBS-style wheels central to Subaru's factory livery are exactly the kind of high-contrast finish that shows up any inconsistency, and this model's paint application and wheel detailing hold that scrutiny well. Opening doors typical of AUTOart's rally line reveal the roll cage and rally seat detail underneath, features that separate a competition casting from a road car Impreza.

Burns, Reid, and the 1999 WRC Season

The 1999 season sits within Burns' rise toward his eventual world championship two years later, and his rapport with Subaru's rally-bred Impreza made this pairing a fan favorite across multiple WRC rounds including Rally de France. The car's number 5 designation and this specific event context give the model genuine motorsport specificity rather than a generic Subaru livery, which matters to collectors tracking individual seasons rather than just the marque.

A Centerpiece for a Late-1990s Rally Shelf

At 1:18, the Impreza's wide stance and aggressive rally arches give it strong shelf presence next to period rivals like the Lancer Evolution or Ford Escort Cosworth, all of which contested the same championship in these years. Grouped by season or by driver, this Impreza anchors a collection focused on one of the WRC's most competitive and closely fought eras.
