agreed, they wouldnt make it faster than the astra vxr as then the astra would lose its deseriability. I personally think it will be a 2.0 n/a or a downtuned version of the z20 let.

If it was due on sale in Jan 2007 we would know what the final specs were before now.

Your not going to pre-order your new corsa VXR without knowing what engine etc its going to have.
