Astra OPC Nurburgring

Opel presented, having the occasion of the OPC Race Camp, the limited edition Astra OPC Nurburgring, which can be distinguish by:

~ white paint, cu “race flag” drawn on the roof and on the hood;
~ bigger aileron;
~ carbon lateral mirrors;
~ accessories covered by carbon on which they put the circuit sign;
~ IDSPlus1 chassis (the second generation, presented on Vectra and Zafira OPC);
~ small weight rims, painted in white;
~ leather interior and carbon decorative elements.
Astra OPC Nurburgring has the same 2.0 turbo engine of 240 hp, attached at a manual 6 speed gearbox. The acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h is made in 6.4 seconds, and the maximum speed is of 244 km/h.

Opel Corsa OPC

Opel recently added a new member in the family. Opel Corsa OPC is the newest release and will be presented for the first time at the Geneva Motor Show in March 2007. The model can be included in the sport category for its appearance and its technical characteristics. The OPC presents a 1.6 liter turbocharged engine, developing 192 hp which gives the possibility to accelerate from zero to 100 km/h in 7.2 seconds and reach the top speed of 225 km/h.
The car is provided with an “overboost” facility, which allows the maximum torque of 230 Nm to be increased to over 260 Nm.

All though it is a performing model, when it comes to the fuel consumption the OPC requires only 7.9 liters per 100 km.
The new OPC goes with 17 –inch alloy rims and 215/45 R17 tires, also available with 18 –inch rims and 225 tires.

With a 16 –inch break system that ensures deceleration, a well-designed chassis, an ESP system and assisted power steering, Corsa OPC is the perfect image of performance and viability.
Having a sophisticated interior and a sport chassis, the OPC tends to be this year’s greatest success.

Maserati MC12 Corsa by Edo Competition

During last year’s FIA GT championship Maserati drove their competitors into the ground with the MC12 GT1 (which already spawned the MC12). On the occasion of the overall victory, Maserati introduced the limited edition (12 units) MC12 Corsa.

The Über-Maserati weighs nearly 880 lbs less than the base MC12 (2530 lbs instead of 3368 lbs). This corresponds to a power-to-weight ratio of 3.36 lb / bhp. With 755 bhp and 546 lb-ft of torque, the Corsa will run circles around the regular MC12 (632 bhp).

Edo competition does not shy away from extreme sports cars such as this one; instead it gives them finishing touches. Consequently a special suspension system developed by Edo competition and manufactured by KW was fitted. The independently adjustable compression and rebound damping permits truly individual suspension setups. The unique system, with its three different adjustments, allows for low-speed compression damping characteristics to be altered while the high-speed settings, having a strong influence on ride-quality, remain constant. True racing technology for the road! Additionally the nose lift function available on the regular MC12 is carried over to avoid front and underbody damage.

Engine-wise, Edo competition leaves the 755 bhp–strong MC12 Corsa untouched. However, the 6.0-liter V12 now announces its power through a newly developed Edo competition high-flow exhaust system – and it does so with a soundtrack guaranteed to induce goose bumps! The sports exhaust system with electronically controlled butterfly valves provides visual cues to the MC12 Corsa’s power thanks to dual exhaust tips, each with a diameter of 4 in. Edo competition put a strong emphasis on quality during its construction. The muffler and exhaust tips are made from durable V2A stainless steel. And, not to be overlooked: a remote control to adjust the sound intensity has been installed.

For better cold braking properties during road use, Edo competition employed a ceramic composite high-performance brake system with 396 mm (15.6 in) rotors in the front and 360 mm (14.2 in) rotors in the rear along with special brake pads at both ends.

Edo competition had newly developed forged wheels (in black) custom made for the edo MC12 Corsa. On the front axle they’re of size 10 J x 19 and on the rear axle of size 13 J x 20. The wheels employed by Edo competition are shod with 265/35 ZR19 (front) and 335/30 ZR20 (rear) tires.

An official approval for road service is in preparation so that this unique Edo MC12 can also be admired outside of the race track.
