nice review JUST_ME , I really like the looks and the collor of this car, but the b-class and the 130 i still look better .

Keep up the good job JUST_ME , have u driven an AMG before ? if not , i think its time to test an AMG , E 63 AMG or CLS 63 AMG and compare it to the other cars uv driven before .

How can I drive a E63 or a CLS63 when the car isnt even for sale in sweden yet? Have you already driven E63 or CLS63, may I ask how get the hands on these?

Its very hard to go to your dealer and drive a M/AMG/RS . Its not easy and they dont let you drive them. Only reason why I driven expensive cars is because of good connections with other people. Its the only way in Sweden if you want to drive an exclusive car.

For you information I driven C32, E55 Supercharger and I got a ride in a SL55. My friend owned a C55 but he sold it before I had a chance to drive it.
Unfortunaly I dont know someone who own a SLR or CLK-DTM

Heh, a small, light car with a short wheelbase like the Astra OPC is sure going to be scary. The Vectra should indeed be better, and with a larger engine to start off with, the turbo should be less noticeable.

I don't think there's any particular cutoff point for engine output in a smallish FWD car, but certainly it begins to get much more difficult to make it smooth and controllable around where the Astra OPC is.
