wow i never realized how tacky that vauxhall badge was... looks like something from china.
oh the car is nice btw (thumbsup). just noticed that the rear hatch has that wraparound design like the q7. i would rather see these things running around rather than monster SUVs or soccer mom minivans... sigh.
... any specs?

Like its siblings, the 2010 Vauxhall Insignia VXR Sports Tourer is powered by a 2.8L V6 turbo engine making 325-hp with a peak torque of 295 lb-ft. That allows for a 0 to 60 mph time in 6 seconds with a top speed limited at 155 mph.

this car is old news, although this is a VXR,
still no M5 touring ass kicker though
looks like GMs interior design team also does their european cars.
I thought they were bringing this car over, but wait now that magna has purchased opel, does GM still get to do that? I think they wanted to have it as a saturn, although Chevy would be much better.

this one is around $50Kcdn...and M5 is like 2x the price, 2x the displacement

Interior still looks and feels like a GM. In fact, all the buttons in that car can also be found on a Chevy Uplander.

Vauxhall is nothing interesting to me, just like Saab, one of those kinda boring European car...or too ordinary.

The Dash and steering wheel looks very nice. However the Radio and climate controls are just randomly placed. Talk about poor design.

The Vauxhall looks like a Mercedes GLK/Toyota Venza and BMW X5 4.8i (because of the wheels.)
