Most things can be modified. It's in GroupA (Class A7 is the 2000cc class) of FIA Appendix J. Even GroupN that was at one time very close to an absolutely standard car now allows a lot of modifications. The exact regulations can be found on the FIA site.
I was rallying at the time the Honda Civic made its debut in rallying. I can recall the Norweigian Arne Garvic using a Civic in the Group1 1300cc class on the RAC Rally in 1976.

When looking at JAS documentation, I ask again "why don't Honda sell a WHITE Civic ?"
Color choice is so poor, and the white one looks great !

Maybe they will keep that color for a special and limited production of a "Race" type R ?
