Have a shitty pleb FWD car which obviously isn’t for patrician enthusiasts like us.

I dig the Opel Adam more

They really need to bring that thing to North America.

The purple they offer is flat out sexy, not even just by city car terms.

To be fair, it’s RWD as long as you drive it backwards all the time.

But it’s dull as ditch water to drive.

They should follow the Fiat model and bring only the Adam as an Opel and sell those in the combined Buick/GMC dealers.

It’s based on the Corsa so not engineered for US crash regs, particularly rear end collisions, so I doubt it will ever happen.

I mean, really, they should bring back Opel/Vauxhall to NA in full, get rid of the rebadged Opels at Buick and have Buick go back to selling more luxury-oriented cars.

Sadly, the last time they tried to sell mainstream Opels and Vauxhalls in North America, it didn’t go too well.

Is this the FWD name change place to be?

You say that like it would be a problem.

If I won Powerball money (which I can’t) I’d build a small track and have a fleet of these for myself and friends to race. Enough power and sound for it to be fun but not enough where you should be afraid of putting your foot down.

It would be called Formula 500, and it would be awesome.

Spec Abarth series!

It would be one of the best sounding Formulae.

I kind of want to replace my 03 Mach 1 with an Abarth, but I really want a four door car. These are just so awesome though... My race car/other fun car is a 1995 Miata, so I've got the RWD bases covered pretty well.
