Re: Opel Adam: Full Body Spy Pictures
Cute. I could see this as a Chevrolet/Buick competitor to the Scion IQ and Fiat 500. Though I really doubt we'll see it here in NA.

Cute. I like that it is a bottom breather.

Re: Opel Adam: Full Body Spy Pictures
Looks good overall. It kind of looks like it's "smiling" to me, but I guess in this category it's not supposed to be about "macho" design or anything.
I like the side profile of the car though:

Re: Opel Adam: Full Body Spy Pictures
Would take it any day over Phiaaat. It would be good as Buick but It would sell better as Opel (cosmopolitan people of LA seem to be very dumb). Exotic European brand is their choice.

Re: Opel Adam: Full Body Spy Pictures
It looks like the C pillars might be interesting.

Re: Opel Adam: Full Body Spy Pictures
An Opel dealership would be nice, but at what premium?

Re: Opel Adam: Full Body Spy Pictures
I too think that this little car would make an excellent Buick. The sculptural detail of it's muscular rear haunches give it a premium feel. Since the cars it would compete with all seem to have a cute face, I think it would be interesting to see a Buick waterfall grille that wraps under the bumper similar to the '43 Buicks. It would have lots of character but at the same time look less cutesy...Maybe someone on here could photoshop that

Re: Opel Adam: Full Body Spy Pictures
Looks like the offspring of Mini Cooper and Mazda 3. Overall not bad looking.
