The original Opel GT - the "poor man's Corvette" -
from the 1970s was a cult classic which still remains popular
among enthusiasts to this day.
The new Opel GT, based on the same platform as the Pontiac Solstice and Saturn Sky, was first introduced
to the public at the 2006 Geneva Motor Show.
With angular styling reminiscent of the Vauxhall VXR220, another GM product, the Opel
GT is powered by a 2 litre 4 cylinder engine making 260 horsepower.
The Opel GT went on sale in 2007, replacing the Opel Speedster
in continental European markets. A right-hand drive model was
not created for the UK market.
The car was only manufactured for three years from 2007 to 2009.
In total 7,519 cars were built.
