This guy i was stationed in TX had one with a supercharger. Man we would go back and forth. HE was cool, his friends talked so much trash. He had so many gremlins in that thing. Nice car though. Very torquey.

you know, corrado was designed by porsche ag.

the big throw up was between that and and an rx-7. corrados are badass, theyve got rettactable spoilers and a supercharged four or the six, which i cant remember if theyre supercharged or not

they look kinda cool for a hatchback, but untill one beats me, i wont respect them as a sports car much. I've raced about 4 of them, 2 with over exagerated body kits ...

The V6 is N/A, 2.8L, 172hp and about the same torque.



It is a fifteen degree vee and has only one cylinder head, thus fits into places a normal V6 wouldn't, like under the hood of a Corrado.



The Corrado is one of the best handling FWD cars ever. Next time you guys race one, try throwing in some curves. It would come down to the driver I think.



Some company in Germany was adding the AWD drivetrain from the Rallye Golf to them, and turning up the supercharged four to about 350hp. You might get burned if you race that one or if the VR6 Corrado has an eip turbo kit, putting out about 400hp, you might be seeing taillights as well.



Cheers
