    Insignia OPC Road Test

    Don't think this has been posted.
    It's in German/Dutch/whatever but has English sub titles.

    What a car! If it lands here at $60k, you'd be mad to buy anything else in that budget range. I mean, V8s are so '90s now and the Liberty looks even older than that. The Passat is not bad but the Insignia looks much better in my opinion. Audi and BMW with similar performance would easily cost twice as much.

    Speaking of which - have you seen the new Passat ????

    Just saw it today (in the metal) for the 1st time and I love it !!!!!

    Reminds me of the Mercedes CLS class...

    It's priced around high 60's I think, tough choice if that's the same price range of the Insignia but from what I saw today, just on looks the Passat wins especially the front end IMHO the Insignia is weird looking front on - don't know about the performance of it though ???

    I would even be happy if they just put that engine in the vf for something like a sv6. If cruze sales go good maybe we will get it hopefully.
