Even some of it goes into production, it would be a hot looking car :)

Not convinced by the looks. Very heavy handed on the front end, more mini-MPV like. Window profile looks like its straight off the XR5 turbo 3 door. :rolleyes:

But, it's a concept so everyone can dream. :p

Too many sharp edges. Doubt they will roll that into production.

That's a photochop off a current-model Honda Civic Type-R. That is nothing official. And nowhere on that German web-site does it say it's gonna be 4wd. I speak German.

Thought it looked a little familiar to something I had seen before :o

The site doesnt say its gonna be AWD, but apparently the members on the Hellas site are saying theyre hearing its gonna be.

Again, this is all speculation.... At least its something to discuss!

If you think about it...it would make sense to make it a 4wd since VW and the other competitors are offering 4wd for their models.

And yeah Tfer, the shape is exactly the same as a Honda Civic Type-R.;)

Damn it Bornwild, you spoiled all the fun lol :D

When I first viewed it, I thought it was a chop job of an AH with the new Corsa VXR, the fog lights and side mirrors look the same......

However O/A I think it looks very good - I like it.

If it becomes a reality and does have AWD, I'm with Mohawk, hell where do I sign :)

P.S. hopefully Opel 'learned' from previous experience with the Calibra and do a far better job with the 4x4 set up....

Think back to wheel about 8 months ago to an Article about the 2010 Astra. Different pics to whats posted. All speculation . Wait till a test mule hits the road then wait for the Artist impressions. they will be closer then.

2009 Astra eh, do you reckon we'll get it here??

I'm sure Holden already has some rubbish Daewoo replacement for the Astra on the cards!!!!

That's exactly what I thought would be the case Steve, ie: all future new Holden small/medium cars line up will be Daewoo models with power plants and drivelines from GM and it's other groups :rolleyes:

Here's to hoping that that doesn't happen:wall:
