So I was in Korea this past week. At the airport they had an interesting display. GM Daewoo is thinking about building this concept car. Its a roadster made by Lotus. Not sure who's engine they are using, but looks similar to an Elise. Just thought I'd share. If they came out with something like this when they launched in the US, maybe they wouldn't have gone under in the US....

Enjoy

 

That is the Vauxhall VX220. It is in the GM family, so they just rebadged it to sell it in Korea under the Daewoo badge. If I am not mistaken, it is built on a derivative of the Elise chassis.

Cool looking, though.

 

thats not a concept car...thats the opel speedster. i guess GM is trying to rebadge it as a daewoo and sell it in korea? its a variant of the lotus elise, based on the same platform. its also known as the vauxhall vx220 in australia. its been out for a long time...i remember driving it in gran turismo 3.

 

Actually it's based on the Vauxhall VX220 Yeah I see that everytime I go through Incheon.

 

oops, yea what he said.

 

i got one of those in GT4!!! haahahahaha!

 

i chanced upon that thing about... 3 years ago when i was visiting some peeps in s. korea. (yes, at the incheon airport)
obviously they still haven't done anything about the car...

 

how do they hang cars on the wall?

 

haha interesting. Wow can't believe they have had the display there for that long. It was my first time an Incheon, haven't been out that way in 8 years, last time I flew into Gimpo.

 

Looks like an opel speedster to me
