The older ones are cool, or even a Beretta GTZ/GTU.

Had a GT, but those motors sucked. IIRC The GTU had a 180hp NA 4 banger.

Default I may have pics on my old HD at home... First opinion was...

It felt really well put together in the corners (then again it didnt weigh anything). I really wish they offered it with a bit more power, on the highway it was fine and yea people look at the car as if it is a vet but the speed is definitely not there. Mine had a faulty carb so it chugged gas like a big block would. Eventually the cost of repairs caught up with my meager income and bye bye Opel.

If you think it's hard getting parts for a 4000 Q and Opel is not the ride for you!

.... I also wish they would have relocated some things to avoid that "speed bump" on the hood lol

FWIW I'd love having one as a project, but not with it's power plant. It'd be a perfect candidate for a 1.8T swap though!

Default We have W124 300TD and love it. It really is a tank, overbuilt panzer....

You feel like you can drive through a wall and walk away. Real solid feel.
