  • Opel GT: Opel Goes Roadster
    January 2007 Opel GT: Opel Goes Roadster • Classic proportions: sleek silhouette, long hood, short overhangs • Archetypal roadster architecture with front-mounted engine and rear-wheel drive • High-tech turbo direct injection and twin A-arms • Roadster fun and performance at affordable price: 264 hp for 30,675 euros Rüsselsheim. The modern definition of an athletic two-seater finds its form in the new Opel GT. As a classic roadster, it has a powerful front-mounted engine, rear-wheel drive, a cockpit with sporty instruments and a tailor-made fabric roof. With a wide stance, sleek silhouette, long, front-hinged hood and short overhangs, the proportions are typical of this class. The Opel GT also brings new charm to this genre with its own unmistakable personality thanks to its exciting shape, which contrasts sharp edges with curved surfaces to create a dynamic look, and its configuration, which enables a refined driving experience, even on long journeys. The GT’ s pricing is also attractive. For 30,675 euros (recommended retail price in Germany incl. VAT), customers get no less than 264 hp from the high-tech turbo engine with gasoline direct injection. Acceleration from zero to 100 km/h takes less than six seconds. The new two-seater carries its legendary name because it continues the tradition of the first Opel GT (1968 – 1973) and, like the original, competes in one of the most exciting vehicle classes. The new Opel GT also showcases the brand’ s passion for dynamic cars, and the conviction that “ Opel was never as young as today” . This is underlined by niche models with a high fun factor, such as the Astra GTC with panorama windshield, the Tigra TwinTop Information concerning specifications and equipment applies to the models offered in iermany.

  • Request for Partial Conversion Support Materials
    City of East Lansing Bailey Community Center Protecting Michigan’s Future Bond Fund Grant #BF89-373 Request for Partial Conversion Support Materials Introduction In 1990, the City of East Lansing entered into an agreement with the Michigan Department of Natural Resources to accept a Protecting Michigan’s Future Bond Fund Grant in the amount of $69,000 to replace existing windows on the Bailey Community Center (Grant #BF89-373)1. The Community Center had been constructed in 1922 as an East Lansing Public School and had been used for that purpose until the 1980’s, at which time it became a City of East Lansing public facility. The building has been used as a Community Center since then. The Bailey Community Center is located at 300 Bailey Street, East Lansing, MI. The Community Center and surrounding parking lots comprise the southern 1/3 of Bailey Park. The Park is 3.77 acres, with 1.58 acres being dedicated to the Community Center and parking lots2. The entire Park was encumbered in the Bond Fund Project Agreement. Concerns with the physical condition of the Community Center and the cost to continue operation of a Childcare Facility in this location prompted the City of East Lansing to pursue a Building Assessment in late 2014. The purpose of the assessment was to gain a comprehensive understanding of the existing condition of the Center and the actions needed to allow continuation of the current Center uses. The main body of the report can be found in Attachment C. The Building Assessment identified a wide range of building needs and deficiencies.

Yacobucci Specialist in Energy and Environmental Policy March 26, 2010 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov R41154 CRS Report for Congress Prepared for Members and Committees of Congress The U.S. Motor Vehicle Industry: Confronting a New Dynamic in the Global Economy Summary This report provides an in-depth analysis of the 2009 crisis in the U.S. auto industry and its prospects for regaining domestic and global competitiveness. It also analyzes business and policy issues arising from the unprecedented restructurings that occurred within the industry. The starting point for this analysis is June-July 2009, with General Motors Company (GM or new GM) and Chrysler Group LLC (or new Chrysler) incorporated as new companies, having selectively acquired many, but not all, assets from their predecessor companies. The year 2009 was marked by recession and a crisis in global credit markets; the bankruptcy of General Motors Corporation and Chrysler LLC; the incorporation of successor companies under the auspices of the U.S. Treasury; hundreds of parts supplier bankruptcies; plant closings and worker buyouts; the cash-for-clunkers program; and increasing production and sales at year’s end. This report also examines the relative successes of the Ford Motor Company and the increasing presence of foreign-owned original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), foreign-owned parts manufacturers, competition from imported vehicles, and a serious buildup of global overcapacity that potentially threatens the recovery of the major U.S.
