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.

That's the problem... GM keeps selling us this homegrown crap instead of the ones we want. And Ford does the same damn thing...

woob 06-04-2009 06:57 PM

it;s got the new mazda silver trim..

EuroRepresent 06-04-2009 07:29 PM

Wow I like it alot. Bring it here!

maxx 06-04-2009 07:50 PM

haha, Clarkson hates vauxhalls

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.

why would you compare this with M5 hatchback?

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

Sick looking car.

bcrdukes 06-05-2009 12:56 AM

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

Car looks good!

i love vauxhalls. Their cars r cool looking.

asian_XL 06-05-2009 07:08 PM

if you compare this with Ford SHO, I would rather take this

Timpo 06-08-2009 08:14 PM

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

vash13 06-09-2009 07:02 PM

The Front is stolen from Volvo. I'd take a volvo over this anyday.

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

except on a green light, the volvo doesnt stand a chance, and this is prolly 7 or more grand cheaper

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