Opel Admiral

The Opel Admiral is a luxury car made by the German car manufacturer Opel from 1937 until 1939 and again from 1964 until 1977. The first Admiral was introduced at the Berlin Motor Show in early 1937, although production did not begin until the end of the year and only eight units were produced in 1937. The model was an attempt to challenge luxury cars in the growing 3.5 liter class from Horch, Mercedes-Benz and Maybach, though it came at a substantially lower price than the similarly specified rivals.
