The Opel Super 6 is an executive car which was built by the German car manufacturer Opel between 1937 and late 1938. The car was equipped with a 2.5-litre straight-six engine and had a top speed of 115 km/h (71 mph). It was available in three different versions: a 4-door sedan, a 2-door coupé, and a 2-door cabriolet. A small number of custom-bodied cars were also made by various coachbuilders such as Karosseriewerke Otto Kühn [de] and Gläser.[1]
