2005 Opel Astra OPC

[oantob]

Because there isn't any Opel section at the Ultimate Pic Topic, so I post here... :wink:
a 2.0 litre inline-4, turbocharged, 240 HP, 0-60 in 6,4 sec
this maybe Golf GTI killer. But still I choose Golf anyday...

Rice rice baby...

looks rather nice, actually :) much more interesting than the bland looking Golf, though I'd rather have a Civic Type R over both of them 8)

[Daggernite]

Thats astra looks way better than the TypeR and Golf, and with 240bhp, probably goes alot faster too. Also that is definatly not rice!!!!

Not really rice :|

0-60 in 6.4 secs

A nice car. It's going to be dadged the VXR over here, and at only £18k a bargain (for the performance) And quality is supposed to be up in the new Astra, and it looks much more interesting than a Leon Cupra R, the (more expensive) Golf GTi and the others 8)

[Ghostbat]

Never thought I'd say this about an Astra but the interior is really nice. And yes I also think it looks way better than the Golf GTI, not to mention it's faster..

[ARMAN]

Very nice looking Opel, thanx Oantob :wink: And its NOT rice :mrgreen:
Its Irmsher's tuning, right? As AMG to MB and M to BMW its official tuner, right. They did horable job in the past as I remeber but now improved alot :P
I dont think that it is as good as GTi but close to it.

[sads]

It sooooo much better looking then the GTi or the Type R, I'd take this any day over the other 2 with 240hp why wouldn't you?

Yeah I guess your right about the styling and the output, but for some reason I don't really trust opel..lets say my past talks

I love this segment... I wish it was more prevalent in the states.

[pilone]

Daggernite do you think Astra is better looking than Type R and...

I'm with you but I don't think performance are very different...

Look in the video section!!
than let me know

[Daggernite]

Well on the spec sheet the Astra does have higher numbers than the typeR. If its able to put its power on the ground as good as a TypeR I dont know, regardless the situation, I'd still have the astra.

[HeilSvenska]

What the, Vauxhall and Opel Astra have different dashboards?!
Astra does look much nicer.

[imprezaWRC]

interior is looking good but the exterior isn't

lol, maybe a little bit, cause its a hatchback, but not that much, looks good IMO
