WT F?? Just 218 km/h with 500+ hp?? Who cares!
I've seen this car before, it's really tastefully tuned!

Thanks Tycoon

Not much Opel left in that one. This is what they usually look like:


You know guys, I think that top speed is on the quarter mile...

You're right, Mike...

Somebody made this PS about Opel Manta:

Yeah, only a chop, but it looks interesting, imo...

Probably the gearing. On older cars like this, it wasn't uncommon to use a 4-speed manual.

Also, the gear ratios are probably low to ensure quicker acceleration at the expense of top speed.
