The 2007 Opel GT: A Royalty demanding attention
The production of the 1960’s and 1970’s Opel GT fast cars 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 super fast cars were manufactured. An impressive 70,000 GT fast cars were sold in North America alone.
Last March 2006, General Motors prided itself in presenting its newest addition to its line of super fast cars. The 2007 GT was unveiled at the 2006 Geneva Motor Show.
In 2007, this legendary fast cool car will make a comeback in the form of a 2-seater roadster that is expected to shake the world of supercar automobile.
Derived from the original GT fast cars of the late 60s and early 70s, the 2007 GT new fast cars will be equipped with sharply cut lines, 4-cylinder turbo engine with gasoline direct injection and rear wheel drive.
The stylish fast new cars of GT will be powered by a 2-liter ECOTEC turbo engine with gasoline direct injection. The soul of the GT new fast cars is the most powerful engine in the ECOTEC history.
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.
It delivers 260 horsepower at 5300 rpm and 258 ft-lbs of torque at 2500 rpm. It is expected to accelerate the GT fast car from zero to 60 mph in less than 6 seconds, while enabling a top speed of over 143 mph.
Massive 18-inch wheels and pumped wheel arches will complement GT fast cars’ 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.
A new feature of this hot fast car is the electrically powered fabric roof that folds down to enjoy open-air driving.
With an impressively head-turning design, classic curves, powerful fuel-friendly engine, the 2007 GT fast cars are royalty that demands attention. Compared to the pricier Ferrari F430, the GT will be priced at €29,900. However, only a few lucky people will have the chance to own one since the production will be limited.
The 2007 GT super fast cars are expected to go in production in the first quarter of 2007.
