al ways love this car, in my humble opinion one of the best looking touring car ever made.

[@judahsoremy9857]

No doubt, it's the best looking by a mile!

[@rolexmike]

The calibra was the best looking tc ever made @eltano06

[@JaredR1996]

Amazing sound. Amazing car ❤️❤️❤️

[@michaellafalce7350]

Aparently these DTM cars are just as fast as the 2000's GT1 cars.

[@Scotracer1987]

Easy one to compare - 2003 FIA GT A1 Ring pole: 1:30.856. 2001 DTM A1 Ring pole: 1:28.713. Two seconds faster!

[@cbr3220]

Astonishing....

[@niko1600]

Same with the Japanese JGTC cars they were GT1 spec or faster

[@michaellafalce7350]

@@niko1600 quite faster. On the corners GT500 is faster. On the straights GT1 is faster.

[@maza19]

They looked like sedans and coupes but they were closer to Le Mans Prototypes

[@noname-yo6yn]

We nee such cars again - Opel needs to have a touring car with strycek driving - they would win for sure - long term - opel is missed badly at DTM and long time endurance races

YOU KNOW WHAT I NEEDED

THE BEST CARS IN MY LIFE I HAVE ever seen

[@termonostruman]

when opel made good cars. they were always different.

[@lars3334]

Opel kann autos bauen!

[@canalemergeek]

Perfect

[@ramonserrano1508]

Das war doch überhaupt kein DTM Astra oder ? Die DTM Version hatte für die Windabströmung auf dem Breitbau Vorne Riffeln. War der Astra Extreme oder ?

[@scfMetro]

Denke schon, dass der Wagen aus dem Video so in der DTM 2000 am Start war. Vlt meinst du spätere Weiterentwicklungen dieses Autos aus 2002/2003?

[@philipppeters375]

So oder so der Astra ist Spitze 👍

[@benetton2725]

Remember this car was used for FRICKING police work and I see this God I miss this car

[@trevorthefilthyrat3742]

Did Opal design their own engine, or did they use a GM ohv V-8?

[@IPL_VIC]

TREVOR THE FILTHY RAT that does not sound like a gm product at all lol my guess is a judd v8, sounds like a flat plane crank for sure

[@MaggiaufEx]

Victor Andrade it doenst Sound anywhere close to a judd V8

[@IPL_VIC]

Mark S. Well it definitely doesn’t sound like a ohv v8

[@misegades]

According to wikipedia it's a Spiess Tuning 4.0 V8

[@fontheking5]

With an 180 degree flat plane crankshaft, that is why it sounds like this, most road going V8:s have a 90 degree cross plane crankshaft, which gives that v8 rumble we all know.

[@joe125ful]

Cool old DTM but Alfa 156 V6 Ti DTM is much more cooler. Speacially first version with 4 rear bombers:)

[@umutkymc4802]

arabaya asık oldum

[@surfside75]

Alfa Romeo will always be king👑😍🍻🇱🇷

[@Chris_KAy]

We are selling one if someone is interested!
