The Williams Formula 1 team could be looking to get involved with the premier German touring car championship DTM.
It is reported by Switzerland's Motorsport Aktuell that German carmaker Opel is keen on collaboration in the series with the famous British formula one team.
Williams chief executive Adam Parr is quoted as saying that a meeting with Opel took place "a few months ago", but described reports of a likely collaboration as a rumour.
But he added: "Personally, I would love to do it. I would be very interested."
Opel is thought to be on the verge of announcing a DTM programme, with spokesman Volker Brien confirming a decision is due "within the next two months".
Reports say Opel would compete with its Insignia model, prepared by Williams.
Opel competed in the DTM until the 2005 season.
Williams Touring Car Engineering were Renault's official entry to the British Touring Car Championship between 1995 and 1999.
The Renault Laguna-based cars were produced by Williams and they won the manufacturers title in 1995 and 1997 and the BTCC drivers title with Swiss Alain Menu in 1997.
