WRC EA mistakes & inaccuracies FEEDBACK thread

I was thinking about creating a thread with all the mistakes and inaccuracies seen in EA WRC early build (very few as tradition with CODIES). Let's start with the CARS:

Thanks @EA_Groguet , @EA_Vendcera !!

206 WRC: The version of the game it is likely the 02 one driven by Richard Burns, the car changes GEAR with the TWO RINGS placed on the top and bottom of the steering wheel, in the game the avatar changes gear with the auxiliary gear stick SHIFTER. Water effect in rainy conditions on the inside of the windshield. 

FABIA WRC: the car changes GEAR with the TWO RINGS placed on the top and bottom of the steering wheel. In the game the avatar changes gear with the auxiliary gear stick SHIFTER (same as in the 206 WRC) 

FIESTA WRC 2021: We have WRONG auxiliary shifter animation, the PADDLE shifter animation isn't working. FIXED! Thanks @EA_Groguet , @EA_Vendcera !!

I'll update the list if myself or other users found more inaccuracies

MITSUBISHI GALANT VR4, inaccurate exhaust size. NO 4 WHEEL STEERING ANIMATION (only GROUP A car with 4 wheel steering), 16 inch SNOW RIMS not modelled

FORD FOCUS WRC 2001: WRONG Interior for the modelled car WHICH IS THE 2002 FOCUS that debuted in the ADAC RALLY DEUTSCHLAND 2002, real car has PADDLE SHIFTER aswell.

LANCIA DELTA INTEGRALE: NO projector in the headlight LENSES on the rally cars (it has in the game)
