Saw this car at the Autosport / Pistonheads car show on saturday. Looks absolutely stunning, really want one. White cars deffinately going to be the big thing this year i reckon. This car is a one off i think, produced by the guys at GM Performance.





What do you all think?

1.8 VVTi with 150bhp sounds like the perfect engine for the car to me.

No, it's an evolution of the Z18XE from the Corsa C

Nope, it's been available in the Astra H, Zafira B and Vectra C for a while now, but only with 140bhp

i was under the impression that GM were not that advanced i thought they just bolted little turbos to everything, sounds good anyway.

I just dont like the way they drive. Fair enough I'm used to the 140bhp version but there just not very revvy or inspiring to drive..
