Remember the Opel GT, that German-import sports coupe, with hot looks and unremarkable power, that was brought to the U.S. through a partnership with GM and affectionately known here in the States as the "Baby 'Vette?" Well, the Opel GT, which was actually manufactured in two generations (1968-1973 and 2000-2010), has its 50th birthday this year. To celebrate, Opel will send five Opel GTs to join a lineup of 180 classic cars for the Bodensee Klassik (May 3-5). The rally starts and ends on the picturesque shores of Lake Constance in Bregenz, Voralberg, Austria, and features a challenging stretch through the mighty summits of the Tyrolean Alps.
