LMA Cars

[jrmacias]

I´ve been looking at the pics available from Lights Motors, Action! Extreme Stunt Show, and apparently the small black cars are Chevrolet/Opel Corsas. Does anyone know what make/model cars are the Sporty Red Ones? They look great!!

fully custom i think.

I believe they are Opals as well but they are only a shell of the real car. They actually use motorcycle engines in them as well a slew of other modifications.

I am pretty sure they are custom made and European made.

Black are Opel Corsas

Red are based on the Opel Speedster/Vauxhall VX220, but share no components with the factory ones.... and they also have a hard top.

I suspected the red cars were based on the speedster. Thanks everyone for your replys.

I actually like the Corsas better than the Hero car. But just imagine import fees and stuff. Otherwise, I'd get one... When I can drive, of course.

Bandit or hero's car, they're still not right unless they've got a mad Frenchman driving!!

eh... the majority of the fees would be waived, since these cars aren't being driven on the roads. They were probably imported as rolling shells in a cargo container on a very long boat ride, which would exempt them from a LOT of duties. Not to mention, they start at under €10,000 retail, so they're probably paying GM about €5,000 for each rolling shell, so they are hardly spending a lot on the cars prior to modifying them.

I'm pretty sure he meant if he were to buy one, the import fees would be high

i'm pretty sure they are custom made from the ground up

but, of course, i could be wrong
insane people don't always get their facts straight :hammer:

Correct. I want one... They look like they get pretty good gas mileage, both from how small they are and from the fact they're from Europe.

We use them as response vehicles and unmodified they handle like a bag of crap! The LMA cars are modified to be rear wheel drive as well. Not an option if you want one.
