Spies in Germany have given us a glimpse of the Opel Corsa OPC Nürburgring Edition.  The limited edition model follows in the footsteps of the Astra OPC Nürburgring Edition from 2008, and is expected to be released alongside the Corsa facelift in 2011.

The Corsa OPC is sold with a 192 PS (141 kW) 1.6-liter turbocharged petrol engine. 

Seen here driven by Volker Strycek, Opel's test driver number one, the Corsa OPC is showing a new front splitter while dual grenade launcher exhaust tips replace the triangular center tip of the current model. 

Other features on the Nürburgring model include Brembo brakes, leather interior with carbon fiber trimmings, lightweight wheels, and lowered suspension.

I've had the chance to drive the Corsa OPC... the power of such a little car is incredible, the interior is beautiful, the recaro front seats are... well... recaro... but the problem is about the massive 190 hp on a front wheel drive car... in straight lines it's a rocket but around the corners you'll be lost if you're not STIG... and for 24000 euros I think I'll buy a BMW or an Audi even with less power

Here in Ireland the corsa OPC starts at €30,500 ex works, so if u get metalic paint, and a few other hidded charges before u know it u have a €32,000 corsa! otherwise u can buy a 160bhp New Astra diesel for just over €25,000. it really doesnt make sense at all. But i suppose it makes the RHD Opel corsa opc more prestigious as no one's buying them!

There is something about the proportions of this car... looks unflattering... chubby...
