Some spy shots have emerged of the 2011 Opel Astra GSi - From World Car Fans!

I don't know about you guys, but I love the shape of the new Astra. I had a good look around one when I was at the dealership a few weeks ago, and the early indications of the sporty models look good. Can't wait for the OPC!

Article;
It will be some time before Opel decides to take on the Golf R with another version of the Astra OPC. But these spy shots reveal an upcoming Astra GSI that may just fill the void for Opel enthusiasts until then.

The GSI is seen here with a camouflaged front bumper, which tells us the model will have a slightly altered front fascia from the standard Astra - a more aggressive look according to our spy photographer. The GSI will come with a dual exhaust at the back and a two-tone interior with sports seats. Also, the GSI will feature wider wheel arches, according to German car mag Auto, Motor und Sport.

The last Astra OPC came with a 2.0 liter turbocharged ecotec engine with 240 PS (177 kW) while the previous GSI was rated at 200 PS. We can expect the new GSI, second in the Astra pecking order, to come in somewhere in between.

The Opel Astra GSI will likely make it to dealer showrooms by the end of 2010.

Hallo again everyone btw, its been a long time since I have been around on these boards, hopefully some of you will remember me! :t-cheers:
 
The previous Astra had dramatic understeer problems in the VXR and OPC I hope they will fix (reduce) that problem in the new ones.
