Used 1994 Volkswagen Corrado Consumer Reviews
VR6 Corrado-not for the timid driver.
The VR6 SLC as shipped is a potentially dangerous ride when driven aggressively. Between the SERIOUS over- steer due to being nose-heavy and the tendancy to swap ends when breaking hard into a turn, it can be fairly unforgiving. While 178 bHp stock, a meager $1,100 worth of chips and bits can easily belt out over 220 bHp. My advice is to invest in Konis and Brembos before testing your abillity to keep this machine on all fours... Supurb fit and finish and damned good looking although plagued by spotty electrical and some unpleasant and unnerving handling problems (stock). Overall, a bargain at twice the price.
love the car
fun to drive, will probably keep and buy another car. Cooling problems normal. Maintenance is costly though.
best car
the corrado is a fun car to drive is fast and handle great, the fuel economy is a not that great but none with a vR6 is or even V8 that dont give the same power as this car. if you have a chance to drive one you will fall in love with it.
SLC
Truely an amazing auto. Spectacular looks that have not been matched since its birth. Unique features like the speed sensitive rear spoiler only seen on corrados and a few porsche. 2.8l provides good power, buckets of torque when you need it. the interior is very nice, leather all around if you opted. The Sound of the VR6 engine wide open will make your hair stand on end. The fact that so few where ever produced for North America make it even more appealing to many. I have never heard of anyone who sold their corrado and did not regret it.
My mini Porsche
Great acceleration, handling and performance, stock that is. After adding sevreal performance parts as far as, suspension, exhaust, chip, supercharger, etc. it was an incredibal ride.
I miss my Corrado
I just had to let go of my Corrado G60 (supercharger, not V6) after twelve years for me (two prior) and almost 200,000 miles. I haven't been able to find a comparable car. My only complaints are I sometimes lost things under the seat and middle consol area, it's hard to get your hand under there and find things you drop, and there was nowhere to put your right arm. Otherwise, a great fun car, great on gas if you didn't gun it all the time. Reliable and unique.
fun to drive
100% fun to drive. Options that are way ahead of its time. body lines that look like a 2000 vehicle. to anyone looking to buy one. GO FOR IT!!
Nick's Review
Only had it for two months, runs great but the fuel economy is terrible. Interior design seems cheap for a sports car. Good seats, but the dash and controls aren't too spiffy.
Don Corrado
This Corrado is the 6th VW I have owned (3rd with a VR6) and I dreamed about owning an SLC VR6 since I was a little girl. I finally got my hands on this black on velour 1992, and it has been great. This car is so solidly built that it doesn't even rattle when I drive it 100 mph! The VR6 pulls strong and you're reading the mileage right: 263k! I love the sport seats (heated too), and it's fun to show people the speed-sensitive spoiler (still works!). It's also great to own such a rare VW that has a lot of cachet and nostalgic value. Most people don't even know what a Corrado is or think it's a Scirocco, but those who know the Corrado know greatness! I can't wait for more good times with him.
great car
Its a very fun car and great on fuel economy. i love the design and it very compact. It can easily be accessorised and custumized.
