Just surfing the www.opel.com and come across this little Beauty.

New Opel GT. Nice looking Roadster. Cross between a MX5 and Porsche GT.

That look great.
Shame we'll never get it here, unless we get an OpelAus petition happening and submit it to Holden...

It will never happen as the car is designed for LHD only......

Oh, I'm sorry but is it built in Asia?
No, then we dont have a chance
Yes, cant have it. We've got the Tigra and the possibility of the twin-top astra.

Looks like it's an Opel version of the Pontiac Solstice:

Lovely looking car, and apparently goes very well too. It's one of only a very small number of open-top cars I'd consider.

That's because the Saturn Sky is the GT as said earlier. ;)
