Renegade Neutral Newbie February 19, 2003 Share February 19, 2003 Thought I'd share these pics of the (for the moment) one and only Vectra GTS 2.2 in town here. Available at a dealer near you in March. Anyone interested ? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
S2P2 Neutral Newbie February 19, 2003 Share February 19, 2003 are there other models that are not the GTS 2.2? saw a blue one over the weekend Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renegade Neutral Newbie February 19, 2003 Author Share February 19, 2003 And here's the figures that matter: 2.2 4-cyl 147hp@5600rpm 203Nm@4000rpm 5-sp Tiptronic style transmission Drag Coefficient 0.28 Comes standard with 215/50R17's ! Yay! Check out the recommended service interval.....after 24 months, or every 30,000 km Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renegade Neutral Newbie February 19, 2003 Author Share February 19, 2003 (edited) Nope - that's exactly what I'd thought, too but realised it looked different and asked the driver. Apparently the others that are on the road are the bog-standard 2-ltr ones. This one's not launched yet. Honestly, it looks a lot better than the standard one, with the lowered ride and all. Plus the hatchback profile looks a lot sleeker than the sedan. Now, if only I could get the salesguy to not snub me when I go to their showroom.....

Acemundo Supercharged February 19, 2003 Share February 19, 2003 Actually the specs looked impressive and makes the car a steal at that type of pricing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acemundo Supercharged February 19, 2003 Share February 19, 2003 For better service, go to the showroom at Ubi instead of Leng Kee. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Throttleb Neutral Newbie February 19, 2003 Share February 19, 2003 Thot all the new vectras are 2.2? Friend of mine was looking at vectra in DEcemeber, said reason why he didnt buy was it was a 2.2 not 2 litre. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freemason Neutral Newbie February 19, 2003 Share February 19, 2003 Check out the recommended service interval.....after 24 months, or every 30,000 km i remember opel's servicing dun come cheap....or it isnt? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renegade Neutral Newbie February 19, 2003 Author Share February 19, 2003 2.2 or 2.0 - Dunno leh.....now I'm all confused, too. I do recall someone at the Motorshow telling me it was a 2.0, tho'.... As for the servicing, I had a friend whose family owns a conti and jap car of about the same class and he told me that the conti cost more per service visit. However, in absolute comparison, due to the service intervals and all that, it came up to be more-or-less the same at the end of the day. However, exactly what the current dealer does with servicing charges remains to be seen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acemundo Supercharged February 19, 2003 Share February 19, 2003 how much??? The last time round it was advertised at $117K for the 2.2L Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
S2P2 Neutral Newbie February 19, 2003 Share February 19, 2003 but i think resale value is a big problemo for Opel cars. mostly ended up in scraps.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acemundo Supercharged February 19, 2003 Share February 19, 2003 Is it? I thought resale value also plagues other conti marques? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onyx60 Neutral Newbie February 27, 2003 Share February 27, 2003 The GTS is abt $125K $8K more than the base but the interior trimmings look a lot better than the regular sedan...but why cant they have the GTS in sedan form rather than hatchback? personally im not a big fan of big hatches... abt the cost...i had the previous model Vectra with full kit and servicing is a killer! ST charges quite ridiculously high labour charges! jap cars r a million times cheaper... but at the end of the day...nothing drives n feels like a Conti Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
