The Profil 24 kit is very nice and although it's not really expensive for what's in the box, it's still way more than a plastic kit. Personally I would rather have any given kit in plastic, mainly because of the cost, but also I prefer to work with plastic not multi-media.
As for the Beemax kits taking a while to come to fruition, well that's true. I waited and waited for the Celica TA64, but when it arrived I wasn't disappointed, it's a really nice, well thought out kit. At the minute only Beemax are offering us any of these classic rally models, so they should be praised for answering our wish lists, because Tamiya and Hasegawa have long stopped making any new rally or race car models. I don't mind waiting for the kits as long as we get them in the end. If Beemax is reading this please consider the Lancia Delta S4 and the Ford RS200 as future subjects. These two have long been overlooked, but would make great subjects in 1/24...
