Yeah ,looks nice but take away the lower swage line and fit real world wheels and tyres and it's all VW/BMW/Audi/Merc.
Another German designed clone car me thinks.....

Actually it's the replacement for the Vectra, nothing replaced the Omega unless you count the Signum  ::).

If you want RWD in the future I don't think it'll be a GM car.  :'(

If it aint RWD it aint an Omega replacemrnt then, as mentioned above it is the replaceplacement for the Vetra if it's FWD.

 ::) Anyone (like I) whom are tall will have a heck of a time getting-in without grazing their scalp in either the front or the back seats of the Insignia; just look at the shallowly-raked rooflines. :'(

The Miggy`s generous portals and capacious interior are hard (if not impossible) to equal IMHO. ;)
