  2. whilst looking through some old car mags i found this 'automobile' magazine from jan 1993 my dad had brought back from the US. flicking through it found an article and ad for the corrado! was in there top ten cars of the year in 1993, but being Americans their choice was a bit questionable!.....the full list was (in no particular order) BMW 325i coupe Cadillac Seville Touring Sedan Ford Probe GT Lexus SC300 Mazda mx-5 Merc 400E Nissan Sentra SE-R Nissan 300zx Toyota Camry XLE VW Corrado VR6 SLC anyway thought it might be of interest so scanned the review and is attached, apologies for the poor quality! pete
