1972 Steinmetz Opel GT Group 4 Sound & Accelerations at Vernasca Silver Flag 2016

During the 2016 Vernasca Silver Flag hillclimb revival I recorded this 1972 Opel GT Gr. 4 race car. The car has been run by Steinmetz Automobiltechnik, an automobile tuning company specialized in Opel cars. It's moved by a 2-litre straight 4cyl engine with a max power of around 200 bhp.
Watch and hear it in action during the event!

Probably the best looking Opel ever.

[@ds50driver20]

[@trainnerd3029]

Kinda looks like a mini Ferrari!

[@mahaloguy2440]

It was my dream car back in '68.

[@Lutzilla_]

for me, as an old opel-mechanic, nice to see! thank you bozzy

[@hertzer2000]

Best engine sound quality on KZbin. God, I love that little Opal!

[@edgarhelbling6525]

You love it and cant even spell it ? Lol. Mini vette, they called them and it couldnt pull a sick whore out of bed, It ranks with the DKV , Nsu, Cv2, as a pile of shit.

[@johnharvey4496]

That's Opel, the European arm of General Motors as I recall

[@redbarchetta8782]

Certainly not the stock engine.

[@tulrob]

I love the Opel GT

[@chrischarizard4067]

[@19Bozzy92]

Thank you!

[@5887MXX]

Badass little car right there...

[@detaart]

What a pretty little thing.

[@AndreiTupolev]

What very pretty cars they are. You can tell it's an Opel from the rear, but the front looks very mini-Corvette.

[@perrhaschulke7783]

saas

[@Kerbhunter_Alex]

The design comes from the corvette ^^

Top notch videos 👍

[@19Bozzy92]

Thank you!

[@rzorNvme]

Very nice

[@ptaantonio8013]

Stupenda.. .

[@markkrul3429]

Never liked the front flares on these Conrero type Opels...but in this colour they actually don't destroy the original fender shape that much. Fantastic car!

[@jonmar7728]

That Porsche 914 sounded pretty good too. 1:30

[@johnsmyth3281]

CLASS!!!!!

[@thomasfulton5696]

The poor man's Corvette probably worth more than fully original than a actual Corvette of that year. Very nice car 👌👍

[@sarahwebster8927]

Opel GT pre-dates Corvette of similar shape...so more accurately Corvette is a big Opel GT.

[@64fairlane305]

@@sarahwebster8927 they came the same year and from the same company like most Ford andGM cars did back then. The european marked wanted smaller cars for their tighter roads & citys while the americans had cheap gas and miles of straight highways

[@ratscoot]

@@sarahwebster8927 Produced from 1969 to 1974, about 100.000 were made.

[@ghaznikizar7566]

PRETTY CAR

[@ritterlecomedy-satire1740]

Sooo muss datt.. - so, und nicht anders!! - - Fazit: 'Chapeau!' 🙂

[@allensaunders449]

an opel race car had no idea looks and sounds great

[@jakefabian]

When u mistaken the Ferrari at 1:22 for a Rover SD1 😑

[@davidduffield7553]

In those days Opel cars were being sold by Buick dealerships. Yes, were made to look like Corvettes.

[@audiwankenobi361]

aww look at that lil thang!...if only it had cheeks to pinch!...it sounds so angry but looks so delightful.

[@bryanverbinnen8455]

my grandma got e silver version of this car in good condition

[@arttafil6792]

I want to know what kind of sway bars that Opel GT has? There is absolutely NO body lean!

[@sammysam5048]

Nice classic, the poor man's vette! 😉

[@CharlieBrown-pb9xn]

Not today

[@thegamingconqueror7955]

Opel power

[@Vrdavila67]

This car need's modern Opel turbo engine right nowww. I would love to see a restomod version of this car cause it's gorgeous but need a little more power. I get the cool carbureted sound but it lacks a little more go.

[@ruttsntlworldcom]

Over in UK we fit the opel c20xe engine and c20let engine gives them from 180bhp to 500bhp depending on engine spec. At the vboa show one year a gt turned up with a jaguar v12 engine fitted. That sounded nice.

[@RemiPut]

👍

[@bryanverbinnen8455]

the opel gt is the small corvette but the toyota uses not so much gassoline

[@capitantomate9014]

do you record all this by yourself or with a group of friends?

[@19Bozzy92]

All by myself

[@tulrob]

It doesnt look like the stock Opel motor....they dont say what motor is?

[@tonysargent1699]

Sound of the exhaust notes are great even at low revs, but, it gives away the problem of slow, bad hear changes by the driver. Sounds as though he has had a stroke or something.!

[@_dave4460]

i had a 73 in 73...

[@ds50driver20]

im a 73

[@chazsach6594]

I had an Opel Manta back in the 70s with a Steinmetz engine, quite pathetic and unrealible.

[@ruttsntlworldcom]

Bet you wish you had it now if you had the genuine crossflow engine. Worth a fortune.

[@chazsach6594]

Along with about a dozen other cars from that era.Still, i suppose we all have The Degree from the University of Hindsight.

[@amsb4dafunk406]

Ain't nothing a lil VTECH can't fix. Or If you feeling froggy. Stuff an LS in it.

[@Kurzac_Classics]

Is it still CIH engine?

[@angelov7222]

Yes but with the rare Opel 8v Crossflow cilinderhead!

[@SuperJosiejosiejosie]

My sisters boyfriend had one in high school. It was always broke, and not exactly fast....

[@goa699]

theres one sitting in a near by junkyard. guy wants a couple hundred for it. its a cool car but i own a 98 trans am and that is small to ride in. the opel was like a corvette but for dwarfs. i wanted a opel then i seen the size and i was like eh.. no. im sure that it would fly with a 5.3 or 6.0 LS engine in it. def tub that thing out get some 17s on it or some thicker tires in the rear. the only bad thing about these old cool muscle and sport cars were they all had little 12 inch rim donut tires. makes it look silly. but then again im use to all these new cars with big fat tires for better grip.

[@Dangerous_Dave_]

what is that blue car at 2:27?

[@cbence96]

Renault Alpine A110

[@detaart]

Sounds like it has low compression on one cylinder.

[@Kerbhunter_Alex]

how do you hear that?

[@detaart]

MonGnoM The uneven, rumbly idle. It's misfiring, but evens out as revs (and cylinder pressure) goes up.

[@PePe_FIN]

I would say it's more probable that the carbs aren't fully balanced or the idle mixture isn't tuned very carefully (uneven mixture on some cylinders) or maybe there is a small intake leak. That combined with the big cam can make for a nasty idle. Low compression is usually audible on overrun too. Most probably nothing that would make any difference in performance tho.

[@Born_Texan]

Sounds like a hotrod VW bug.

[@genobutera2237]

Haha,the Ferrari sounded the best.Then the opel and the porche

[@perrhaschulke7783]
