The 11/10s Krant is funny, but this new 6/10s Krant is pretty good too Nice Corrado, I recall a neighbor having a G60 about 11 or 12 years ago when I delivered papers to his house, always liked them. ---

First. I’m a girl so I typeeee likeee thisss because I type how I would say it in real life. Emphasis. Second, the only shop it will be in is at my work. Haha. I was bored. Needed something to spend my $ on. It’s really not a bad pickup at all. It has started every time so far. I’m not worried about it breaking too bad. Made it back to buffalo just fine. 😃 ---

So many good comments in here already pertaining to VW ownership so I wont say anything more. haha Besides, Next week Corinne is picking up a pristine 99 Cabby, the only VW I love and would drive so I guess I cant really talk too much shit on VWs or their owners anymore. Congrats on purchasing what looks to be a stellar VW. I hope it treats you well. I will say this though, like what bing said above, you could have something RWD!!! Miata, S14 etc that would give you less problems while DDing it and doing heaeters! But hey, rock what you love. I know I do. and I’m gonna rock the shit out of Corinne’s cabby any chance she lets me lol I may even play Hanson or Mariah Carey while driving it. ---

I’m sure it will run fine on regular or 89, but even my 87 scirocco had a factory label on the inside of the fuel filler door that said to run 95ron/91 octane in it. I think the dude rebuilt the engine, maybe with some better stuff in it, for a low psi setup on stock compression. ---

Everyone realizes that I’m fully aware that I could have gotten a rwd car, right? I didn’t want a miata or a 240 or even another e30. Everyone and their mom has em. I’m happy with my purchase even if I can’t do burnouts. The price I paid for this is doesn’t even compare to what pile of junk not clean e30 I could get in same price range. ---

> [@bing](#): > > this is cool and all but for the price of ownership of a 1992 VW Corrado you would have been much better off buying a clean SR swapped S14… half a decade newer, RWD, cheaper cost of ownership, faster, better on gas, plus you could then hang out with me Some people prefer a well built, solid German machine to a cheap Japanese tin can piece of crap that’s going to rust if you breathe on it. ---
