Yes, the Ascona C was too much of a global GM car.

Yep, some bitter Opel fans argue that the switch to fwd was one of the first nails in the coffin. The only model of interest of the Ascona C is the convertible by Hammond & Thiede which was assembled in my hometown.
(Edit: the one in that pic is a Keinath convertible but they all looked the same anyways)

Bitter Opel fans sounds quite funny, they could be 2 things, fans of Bitter Opels, or just bitter fans of Opel, or maybe both at the same time, haha.
Hardly any difference indeed. Also, I love how 80s (or at least what I think the 80s were, how would I know how the 80s were) that photo is: completely cocaine white car, mustache, girl leaning on the hood in a bit of an odd pose.

Bitter Bitter Opel fans:D
My nose hurts from just looking at that white overload. The yachts in the background also give that Miami Vice vibe to it. Crazy decade.
