WHY MUST YOU TEMPT ME RABBIT!? lmao i was looking at an 82 Rabbit with a 2.0 Turbo swap, but now that a corrado is back on the table im torn. The G60 is rare and super charged, but how hard are parts to find?Originally Posted by petrified.rabbit

You will probably be able to find any part you will ever need on vwvortex. Those guys know their $h1+.

Veedubtek (the seller) is one of the top 10 vw dealership mechanics in the country. seriously he left yesterday to california for the vw tech competition only the top 10 tested mechanics in the US get to go for the hands on competition. He is a good friend of mine and i just drove to delaware for him to pick up a different corrado (he buys and sells car like i used to, about 4 a month) he bought this one for its interior i think, not sure what else. but he wanted a black interior for his VR he just bought. I will talk to him for you. Any questions you want to know?
i will get the pictures too, just need to hunt them down.
edit: here in the build thread of his other corrado:

just whether the car still runs and drives, passes inspection, and if the supercharger still works. my venture into the VW world is going to be a trial by fire. im attracted to the corrado because of its stock power and rarity, but im also looking at an 82 rabbit turbo with a 2.0 swap and their about the same price.
Rabbits are everywhere, you can always get one of those. When you come across a sweet corrado, you dont think you buy!

good point, sir!Rabbits are everywhere, you can always get one of those. When you come across a sweet corrado, you dont think you buy!
he said it runs and drives surprising well, he bought it for the interior, and it now has tan leather out of the vr, that needs some work..
the charger is a little noisy, boosts fine. starts, drives, idles great though but he isn't spending time looking into it. slight exhaust leak (but he got an extra performance exhaust from over the axle back with the VR he bought that you might be able to pick up too), noise in front suspension common on corrados, $40 vr mounts and $40 sway bar bushing should take it way. needs a good detail
It has a really solid shell he pulled the carpet etc for the interior swap, he only wants $1500.
BTW i think in my circle of friends there ate 11-12 corrados. including one with 24k original miles and original owner, and a 95 canadian spec car.
Dont lie, we all know you dont have any friends
they are all starting to ditch me now that i drive an aveo..:P
