Is Opel Considering An All-New Manta?

Rumors have now begun stirring up regarding the resurrection of yet another shelved, yet beloved, Opel name. Coming from a German automotive news outlet, the latest remarks from soon-to-be GM Europe President Karl-Friedrich Stracke saying that a new take on the classic Opel Manta is easy to imagine has left several news sources speculating that such a vehicle is indeed on the way, someday.

Years back, the Manta was a spirited rear-wheel-drive coupe with some roots in rally racing. If the powers that be bring such a vehicle to market, enthusiasts can only hope that they stick to that tradition, and one way they could do it would be to utilize the upcoming Alpha platform.
