You seriously haven’t seen anything until you have seen the new Opel Flextreme GT/E concept. Open plans to reveal this extended range concept next month at the motor show in Geneva.

The Flextreme GT/E’s body is totally aerodynamic, and as such, it is meant to point to the direction the brand wants to take with its design aesthetic in the future.

Up to this point, GM has showed only the most fleeting teases and sketches of the new concept, which has five doors and LED lamps shaped like wings.

The cabin is a four seater and it can be accessed through light sensors, which actually take the place of any door handles.

Michigan has always held a special place in my heart – it is my home state and Detroit … while not my home city; it is certainly a special place.  So when I read in The Detroit News that GM has gone on the record stating that without the state tax credits, they would have to pull out of the skyline and actually move to the suburbs and surrounding areas.

Now, I have to tell you that this particular building in huge.  I have been inside of it and have actually stayed at the Marriott there and the number of jobs that would be lost is incredible.  Basically – GM needs to have 2,500 employees working and pay out about $60 million dollars in order to qualify for the incentives and tax breaks.

Do I think that is going to happen? Well, if anyone can do it, GM can and I think that they will.
