			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p align="justify">Opel has presented another innovative concept â€“ the 4-wheel drive Antara GTC (Gran Turismo Crossover). Based from General Motorâ€™s Theta, Opel Antara GTC proves just how sporty and dynamic an SUV can be. Replacing the Opel Frontera, the Antara GTC <strong>fast new cars </strong>were unveiled at the 2005  Frankfurt International Motor Show last September.</p>
<p align="justify">The Antara GTC <strong>super fast cars</strong> suggest adventure  combined with a higher level of Opelâ€™s design to fit for the SUV genre.</p>
<p align="justify">This muscular <strong>fast car</strong> is a futuristic vehicle with flashy interior, remarkable LED headlamps, panoramic glass roof and with the characteristics of a 3-door design.</p>
<p align="justify">With the new Opel <strong>fast cool cars</strong>, convenience and  performance are given committed consideration. For example, the Antara <strong>new fast cars</strong> features a more accessible load compartment, the folding rear seats and the EasyEntry system, which is powered by a button enabling passengers to climb into the rear seats more easily.</p>
<p align="justify">Beneath the hood, the Antara GTC <strong>hot fast cars</strong> are powered by 1.9-liter Twin-turbocharged Inline-4 engine that can produce 212 horsepower and 294.9 ft-lbs of torque at 1400 rpm.</p>
<p align="justify"><span id="more-226"></span></p>
<p align="justify">The two-staged, 4-cylinder, turbocharged diesel engine features four valves per cylinder, two overhead camshafts and variable turbo blade geometry.</p>
<p align="justify">With a new generation engine, this <strong>fast car</strong> can accelerate from zero to  60 mph in around 8 seconds and through a top speed of 130.5 mph.</p>
<p align="justify">The panoramic roof system (an idea  borrowed from another <strong>new fast car</strong> â€“  the Opel Zafira) is made up of two large skylights that give the occupants  light and a pleasurable driving experience.</p>
<p align="justify">To protect the occupants from excessive light or sunshine, dark tinted glass comes as a standard feature as well as the roof console that extends over the entire length of the <strong>super fast car</strong> to provide extra stowing  space.</p>
<p align="justify">This <strong>new fast car</strong>â€™s body color, called Everglade Mica, combines high segments of glowing pigments with bottom side-body strip underlining the rugged projection and dark bumpers to give contrast to the glimmering effects.</p>
<p align="justify">The Antara GTC <strong>hot fast cars</strong> are equipped with front and rear lights that consist of light-emitting diodes (materials that have longer life and a more direct response). The front lamps are slickly integrated into the fenders, while the rear lights highlight the transition from the rear to the side shoulder.</p>
<p align="justify">Standard features of the Opel GTC <strong>fast new cars</strong> include a mixture of high quality materials including aluminum and stainless steel for the cockpit, carbon fiber for the back seats and warm tones of leather upholstery.</p>
<p align="justify">For a concept car, the Opel Antara  GTC <strong>fast cars</strong> were not a  â€œwowâ€-material to the Frankfurt Motor Show. However, as a production car, this <strong>fast car</strong> is a shocker.</p>
<div>With the production of the Antara GTC as an  addition to the Saturn lineup, Opel proves that each <strong>fast car</strong> they manufacture demonstrates fresh and dynamic design  languages for different car classes.</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p align="justify">The production of the 1960â€™s and 1970â€™s Opel GT <strong>fast cars</strong> was one of the most famous Opels imported to the North America due to its high quality performance and head-turning design. Over 100,000 Opel GT <strong>super  fast cars</strong> were manufactured. An impressive 70,000 GT <strong>fast cars</strong> were sold in North America alone.</p>
<p>Last March 2006, General Motors prided itself in presenting  its newest addition to its line of <strong>super  fast cars</strong>. The 2007 GT was unveiled at the 2006 Geneva Motor Show.</p>
<p>In 2007, this legendary <strong>fast  cool car</strong> will make a comeback in the form of a 2-seater roadster that is  expected to shake the world of <strong>supercar  automobile</strong>.</p>
<p>Derived from the original GT <strong>fast cars </strong>of the late 60s and early 70s, the 2007 GT <strong>new fast cars</strong> will be equipped with  sharply cut lines, 4-cylinder turbo engine with gasoline direct injection and  rear wheel drive.</p>
<p>The stylish <strong>fast new  cars</strong> of GT will be powered by a 2-liter ECOTEC turbo engine with gasoline  direct injection. The soul of the GT <strong>new  fast cars</strong> is the most powerful engine in the ECOTEC history.</p>
<p align="justify">
<span id="more-223"></span><br />
ECOTEC combined with direct inject technology helps in producing more power while maintaining low fuel consumption, improving engine response and resulting in ample torque even within low engine speeds.</p>
<p align="justify">It delivers 260 horsepower at 5300 rpm and 258 ft-lbs of  torque at 2500 rpm. It is expected to accelerate the GT <strong>fast car</strong> from zero to 60 mph in less than 6 seconds, while enabling  a top speed of over 143 mph.</p>
<p>Massive 18-inch wheels and pumped wheel arches will  complement GT <strong>fast cars</strong>â€™ driving dynamics. It also helps in balancing weight distribution. The rear is also another head-turner due to its rear haunches that integrates wrap-around brake light clusters.</p>
<p align="justify">A new feature of this <strong>hot  fast car</strong> is the electrically powered fabric roof that folds down to enjoy  open-air driving.</p>
<p align="justify">With an impressively head-turning design, classic curves,  powerful fuel-friendly engine, the 2007 GT <strong>fast  cars</strong> are royalty that demands attention. Compared to the pricier Ferrari F430, the GT will be priced at â‚¬29,900. However, only a few lucky people will have the chance to own one since the production will be limited.</p>
<div>The  2007 GT <strong>super fast cars</strong> are expected  to go in production in the first quarter of 2007.</div>
