    Re: Breaking News: Full OPC line up set to heat up Australian roads in 2013

    The auto is an optional extra afaik, so they are bringing the manual as well.

    I could be reading it wrong, but that's my take on it.

    P2 is right though, glad they are bringing them all over.

    Although they also called the UK version the VRX!!!

    Should pay more attention, skim reading while at work.

    I'm sure it's not that much to convert it lol

    Hey all! How good is the news Melanie broke on here? We found out at the same time as you guys! We are really excited to get the full range. Since the departure of the Volkswagen Passat R36 I have no idea who would be a competitor to the Insignia OPC? Anyone got an idea? Could this be in a league of its own?

    Cheers Tony

    Is the Transmission a full out or a DSG Style ? One would hope its a DSG style as most of the sports prefromance range of Manafacturers are heading down that track. None the less
    this is awesome news that the full OPC range is coming to Australian 1st QTR of 2013.
