Sport Luxury Coupe: 1993 Volkswagen Corrado SLC VR6

The Volkswagen Corrado was a oddball in VW's 1980s/90s lineup.  It somewhat replaced the aging 2nd gen Scirocco, but not really and it wasn't much sportier than a Golf GTI...so what was it?  A VR6 powered Golf chassis based 3-door with a 179 horsepower 12-Valve VR6 motor...forget the why and just enjoy! Find this 1993 Volkswagen Corrado SLC VR6 offered for $5000 in Las Cruces, NM via craigslist.  Tip from FuelTruck.

4k: Baby We Were Born To Corrado: 1992 Volkswagen Corrado SLC

Corrado in Spanish means "to run." Corrado after two decades of use in North America means "better off running," "gotta run to the auto parts store,' or simply "the runs." In 1988, the global reaction to Volkswagen's Scirocco replacement was "Oh you're being serious about this?" It was an odd move for VW, and an even more unusual choice for consumers in the early 90s. Today, the Corrado is cheap and still considered one of the best-handling FWD cars of all time. Find this 1992 Volkswagen Corrado VR6 for sale in Madison, WI for $3,500 via craigslist.

A Future Classic: 1990 Volkswagen Corrado G60

Launched in 1988 as a replacement for the long in the tooth Scirocco, the Volkswagen Corrado was produced through 1995 as a handsome version of the popular Golf people car.  If you think of the Corrado as an expensive Golf it doesn't make sense, but if you look at it like a cheap Audi TT, the hatchback sports coupe starts to make a little more sense.  Find this 1990 Volkswagen Corrado offered for an undisclosed price in Hartford, CT via craigslist.  Tip from John H.
