The Astra OPC stands his ground in hot hatchwereld, no doubt, but almost nowhere is it so important to show how far you can piss in this segment. Opel understands this and comes up with a bouncer of have-I-you-there. Extreme!
But less than 100 kg of the Astra OPC junk, thanks to extensive use of carbon fiber, including the wheels, where only a weight saving of 20 kg results.
The colleagues of BNR’s National auto show talked in Geneva with Opel, that their the following toevertrouwden: the power, the official ‘300+ hp’, is still read, but will probably be between 315 and 320 hp out and the Extreme is likely in a series of 50 to 100 units to be built.
The question everyone’s lips is burning, of course, is: how is this car on the Nordschleife? You bet that Opel working on it (we have a suspicion of what the speakers will sound. Although, maybe it sounds totally fake Wagner more appropriate), but that we hold still as your credit. They have, in any case, thanks to the León Cupra with Performance Pack, a beautiful new benchmark.
