I bet you £50 that they release a GSi, with a Turbo engine or not they will release a GSi.

A Turbo engine might be the only attractive thing about the Corsa D. Have u seen the pics of it?
New Turbo engined Tigra sounds good tho.

the turbo will be in the corsa D this was established over a week ago. the corsa D will share the 199 platform with the mk3 punto. the mk3 punto is also likely to have a cc type conv developed.

I'm not saying that the Corsa C GSi will have a Turbo, I'm saying they will release a Corsa C GSi but without a Turbo engine, probably just a revised 1.8 16v motor with different bodykit and some fancy seats like the ones in the Astra G GSi

TBH I hate the Corsa C I have no interest in them, they bore me with there boring engines and boring design.
Corsa A & Corsa B is where the interest lies.

That is true, but I don't think the Corsa C will have the following that the Corsa B and A still have.

They should have released a GSi Turbo to run the C out, but doesnt matter now!
