I'm a fan ..
I drove a few .. 16 V and the very first Corrado in Belgium (G60) ... i never owned one but my neighboor had two, his first was a 1.8 with 136 hp but he crashed it heavily while following a friend in his Passat VR6 ... . He then bought a 136 hp 2 litre but that appeared to be a very slow car that he sold pretty quickly ... .
The red one was a 16V 1.8 .. this was a pretty fast car .... check out the numberplate 
This was the first in Belgium, a G60 ... i actually didn't like the sluggish gearbox .. 50 in first, 85 in second and then the revs dropped dead in third ...
These days i wouldn't mind owning a Corrado

VW Corrado, a ( too? ) ambitious coupé from VW?
1988... Volkswagen unveils an intriguing coup. We are far from the angular lines of the Scirocco, the line is more sensual, sweet, almost noble for a car from this era. The engine was promising... With the help of a compressor, the 1.8 reached 160 HP, wh...
Me too....
hi Amanico , we seem to have a similar taste in watches and now cars , I owned years ago a VR6 and only have good memories of that car and its fantastic engine Rgds
That was one of the few cars I regretted letting go.
The noise of the engine, no, the melody, was top. The behaviour on the road, too. Yes, that was a great car! Best, Nicolas

Funny because I had the contrary experience.
My 16 V was mechanically improved, and I got 150 HP on it, but still, a bit anemic. My G 60, I got 190 HP on it, and it was a bomb! I didn't see how much a Corrado will cost nowadays, but it could well be a very interesting car to own! All the best, my fr...
It looks like a better looking US Volkswagen Scirocco.
Line are similar but better, much smaller B pillar. JerryW
Well, the First Scirocco was cool, the 2d generation was really ugly.
So, the Corrado is necessarily nicer! :) Best, Nicolas
