I don't even remember Opel being here in the states. To me, it's always been a marque I've read about and wanted. Then again I'm 20, so they were probably here before that. Now if only they would bring their new turbo Astra over here... I'd be one happy man. Haha...

well opel hmmmm we have vaxhall in the uk which is almost 100% opel. there cars are underpowered, never look like the concept, are driven by arses who think, because they have 2.5l v6 in a newer car they can destory me but even with there 170bhp the 0-60 is only 8secs or even higher. the only car they have made that is good is the VX220 mostly because there didn't make it. But lotus did all of the hard stuff. however they can put it together well (not hard in todays world) and the VX (or speedster to give it its incorrect EURO name) is a good fun car.
