Not bad, I actually like it. This is our next generation Saturn Aura.

I'm pleasantly surprised too. Especially with interior layout...

The car looks a bit bulky but the design is nice, the interior is surprisingly attractive as well.

But before all that, they need to iron some fit and finish issues.

I expected it to be sleeker, but it's very pleasant to look at . Don't like the big crease in the front door.

The interior is incredibly attractive for such a car, however big assembly issues (where Monster showed, and also the area at the corner of the central heaters, especially the right one, or the wood line at the top, on the left, where it meets with the door).

Seems to have a kind of iDrive?

All in all, it's a pretty car, but the finish is a bit poor. Great effort just like the Astra was (but with an excellent finish the Astra, better than the Golf actually).

Not bad, but interior even if it's not ugly has this typical Opel sense of non quality.

Wow! It looks really cool! The interior is also very attractive. I must say Opel did a great job.

Re: Official: New Opel Insignia - 04-15-2008, 07:09 AM

Can't say that I'm a fan. I see a bit of Peugeot, a bit of Nissan and a bit of Mazda in the design but not really much Opel. That said, it's a whole lot better than the Vectra.
The interior (which reminds me of Volvo for some reason) is clearly a step up.

Re: Official: New Opel Insignia - 04-15-2008, 08:11 AM

I can't say that I am a fan either. The side looks like a Peugeot, and the rear 3/4 is quite terrible looking IMHO.

Thanks for the heads up, Tyc! This looks like it is just another Opel. Slightly more modern than previous versions, but still ugly.

Heck, I though it's a Toyota at first glance.
