    Strange, I didn't realize there was a time limit on fixing stupid. Guess it's better late than never for some.

    LOL. American ignorance at it's best? Unless I'm mistaken the Speedster came out 5 years before the SE-R.

    lol reps for you! Production on the Speedster/VX220 ended in 2005, about the time the Alitima SE-R got similar wheels...

    Incorrect...this is an Opel Speedster. You're thinking of the Opel GT. The Speedster is mid-engined and far more stripped down than the GT. Love how they look and I bet they're a blast to drive.

    lol! The sky platform was the replacement for this car. The Opel Speedster Vauxhall VX220 is MID-ENGINE...nothing like the Sky/Solstice.

    Oh the GT was actually a replacement? I don't think it does justice. The Sky/Solstice is more comparable to the Miata whereas the VX220/Speedster is more like the Lotus Elise.

    I thought OnURLeft's comment was obviously sarcastic, being posted right after you explained every thing, but who knows...
