2 weeks ago, on a whim, I drove to Lima, OH, to possibly pick this up. As soon as we pulled up to the house, I had already made my decision that I was driving this back to Buffalo. Ha. '92 VW Corrado vrSIQQQQ. [ATTACH=CONFIG]22904[/ATTACH] Too much about it to really list. Has freshly rebuilt motor, prob has around 3000 miles on it now. Pretty damn clean inside and out. I love it so much. That is all. Hooray. Right now, it’s parked in my garage waiting for the weather to get nice. I just need a set of tires, and a skidplate and she’s all set. I’ll probably find minor shit that needs to be fixed, I mean, after all, it is a brokeswagen. ---

I’m not driving it all year. I’m going to make it lower because I’m retarded, so I’ll pass on that. Also, it requires 93oct and doesn’t get 40mpg like my civic does so again, I’ll pass. Ha. ---

assuming it has a VR6 why does it need 93? If you’re slamming it I guess it’d be a fun summer car. I remember the guy in OP that had a crazy turbo caged VR6 might have been awd too. ---

I remember the guy in OP that had a crazy turbo caged VR6 might have been awd too. If its the same caged car I’ve seen it around. Nice pick up. Not a VW fan but Ive always liked the way these look. ---

You are probably referring to mine which was dismantled a few years ago. I gave the shell to Gary Burch and not sure if he even has it still. Dawn - Congrats on the pickup. ---

I remember the guy in OP that had a crazy turbo caged VR6 might have been awd too. Rebuilt for turbo setup. Has cams and chip. It also came with all the turbo parts except turbo haha. I don’t think I’ll turbo it. Fast and low doesn’t make sense. ---
