EVO (Sept 01) and (oct 02) The powerful Lotus Opel Omega !

[Schwalbe]

Even after more than 10 years the Opel Lotus Carlton always remains it one of the more powerful Bahnstormers of today! :D This supersaloon is still in my top 5 of my favorite cars and here why: This is a family sedan, RWD, manual 6 speeds, Twin turbo, 377bhp@ 5200rpm, 419lb ft@ 4200 rpm, 4.8sec (0-60mph) , 180 mph top speed !!!! :shock:

Thanks Schwalbe JG 44 for two nice articles. My fav of the lot is M5 - normally aspirated, manual gearbox, RWD - the best ingredients for fun

It's sure that E39 M5 is really nice, but the old Lotus Opel Omega is in the competition of supersaloon even today. :)

Thank´s a lot Schwalbe JG 44, very nice scans. the Carlton is also one of my favorite cars and it has a menacing character that other saloons don´t have. It may be old, but it´s performance is still impresive. :o
