Next week's Acropolis Rally in Greece will be the first event in the 2008 WRC season to feature Subaru's new rally car. The Impreza Rally WRC2008 car was originally previewed at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September, but Subaru has yet to announce the final specifications of its new rally rocket. Obviously, Prodrive has had its hand in developing the new racer, but a BOS sticker indicates that Subaru will be utilizing the French outfit's dampers. Petter Solberg and Chris Atkinson will pilot the new Impreza in Greece and Prodrive head David Richards is convinced that this is "the most radically different Subaru World Rally Car in 15 years." We're looking forward to seeing how it fares next week.

ˆ Greek booty strikes again in Chevy Matiz commercial (NSFW)

Oh dear. It seems the marketing team for Chevrolet in Greece has just one thing on its collective mind, and suffice it to say, it's not the Matiz. Granted, the girls in these ads we've been seeing on the 'net lately are infinitely more enticing than the budget hatchback, but still... enough is enough. That won't keep us from watching the commercial, though, or from minding that we can't understand what's being said. Hey, it's all Greek to us, and it's all good. Check out the video after the jump, and the one that came before it, which we think better bridges the language gap.
