they produced 400 units of 22B total
the subaru rally car came from the WRX (STi?) and the 22B came from the rally car
here's a homemade diagram

WRX(street) -> rally car -> 22B

i was thinking that it was WRX-22B-RALLYCAR-since the 22b is the beefed up version they base the rally car apon that, having to produce X amont of units a year to meet WRC regulations! I dont remember, your probley right..I thought i read that they up to 1000units instead of 400 so that the factory and indepent teams will have enough cars as well as a few street models.. It could have been something that they planed on doing but didnt follow though or i might have read it wrong..**** i dont remember.

WRC grp N and grp A regulations state production of 2500 units, not 25000.
But the Evo5 and 6 had more than 2500 units produced due to demand. These companies are working for a profit too. www.rallycars.com for more information.

Subaru does not need to produce 2500 units of the Impreza because Subaru conforms to WRC rules and not grp N and A.
That's why the WRC impreza is FMIC and the street Imprezas are all TMIC.
