Lada to enter WTCC?

I think it should still be considered 'rumors', but some info is known up to the moment. I found a thread on this subject at Auto Sport (Russian autosport magazine) forum.
Guys say that the money are already into the project (seems like from GM mostly - remember GM and VAZ common business, but with the help of 'bussines drivers'). The new car will be prepared by Russian Bears team. Sports director of Russian Bears team, Alexei Grigoriev, previously was a director in LogoVAZ-City team when it raced in Supertourism class in Russia. Speaking about a model, I suppose it should be a Lada 110 or 112, or maybe a new one, Priora (actually a modernized 110 model).
We'll see. For me these are interesting news.
