It was, together with the Camaro, a try by GM to put a foot on the German market. These two models are the only one, which were offered officially by GM, so via bigger Opel-dealers. All other US-made GM-cars had been private imports or were imported by a special personal order of a Opel-dealer, who had a purchaser for that.

Over here we can get plates in smaller sizes for US-cars. Sometimes in the exact US-size, but often those, sized for 80 ccm-motorbikes or tractors.
