Looks like you can get a N/A 2.0 or 2.4 either 119 HP or the 143HP. Its a nice looking car and the interior looks really nice.

You can buy that here, it's called the SATURN AURA! And it's not a delta car its an Epsilon, same thing as the Malibu, G6, and Aura. The Chevy Astra is the delta car. It's a Opel Vectra with Chevy emblems.

That thing is pricey too, with the currency calculator it looks like it is right around 40,000 in US dollars? Seems like a lot maybe i picked the wrong currency?

if you have a Saturn Aura, yes. If you have a Cobalt, no, but I heard the Opel Astra headlighs do work, they're the same style, someone on here has done it.

They are nice... I had one when I lived in England. GM in England is known as Vauxhall, Opel to the rest of Europe. it was a nice car in 2000. I don't know how they plan on making it now, but back then I would compare it to a... Non-S/C Cobalt SS.

http://www.vauxhall.co.uk/vx/carsand...Name=newVectra

It appears that it is a V6 Turbo... (Check out the VXR model). "powerful 255PS 2.8i V6 24v Turbo engine" to be exact! Exciting!!! They were fun... but not as fun as our COBALTS!
