I live in south, yes weeks of rain. We have floods problems, many people lost their homes. Bad year for us, first - president, military commanders and some politics died in plane crash, now this. Anyway its our own fault (both) so we cant complain

have a question for you, where did you get the carbon kit for interior? only stikers i found, but looks cheep, and i pass, i got an offer for a lip around 150$ and will w8 for 1 month. wind deflectors (mugen type) will complete the exterior for it, I guess to bad that they are mounted on the outer solder ...

It depends, they have nice highway in the middle, but coast roads are very curvy, and sometimes you need 40km to rape damn truck driver with 100% sure you will live roads are very slippy when wet, and you can see many photos with flowers of unlucky drivers on harder corners One mistake and you are going down 10-300 meters it depends where you are. Oh and winds are dangerous, on windy day you need to focus to keep car on the road above 80km/h.

Its easy when done carefully, you have to learn that technic when you live in Poland and you have to be watchful like Tommy Lee Jones in The Fugitive to not score holes in the road and other traps...

We all love cars here so I decided to wrote few words about this. There is oportunity to buy a company car for me so I started to search and today I had a test drive with Opel Insignia OPC. Its 325HP 2.8L V6 Turbo engine. Its about 400nm and 0-100km/h in 6.0 sec, tops speed 250km/h locked. It has flexiride suspension with 3 modes, touring, sport and opc. 20" wheels with 255/35. Now few photos...
Its a General Motors car so Its called Opel Insignia OPC in Europe, Vauxhall Insignia VXR in England and soon Buick in US but as far as I know there wont be 325HP in US version.
Engine is great, acceleration is wonderful, V6 sounds sweet but... Its very loud inside on low rpm. Its very annoying for rear passengers. All console plastic, wheel and door handles are squeeekie. And there is something wrong with airflow, it was loud beyond 150km/h. I have tried it to 220km/h and I thought that window is open or something. Recaro sits are only cosmetic attraction, they dont hold you on hard corners at all. We all say that our Hondas/Acuras are little too slow... something looks bad, but believe me, I was testing car that is almost two times more expensive then mine and quess what, I wouldnt trade.
Have a nice day guys

The Opel is a nice car, but like a lot of other cars out there, (Toyota and Honda included), they try to save money on material which is why some of the stuff looks great but upon touching / feeling it's just cheap plastic.
That same car is the Buick Regal in North America. It comes with the 2.4L Ecotec I4 rated at 182 hp. A turbocharged 2.0L Ecotec I4 rated at 220 hp. We should also get the Regal GS which is based on the OPC but have a turbocharged 255hp I4 engine instead.
