corrado vr6 vs astra gte 16v vs calibra turbo
spike16vgte replied to spike16vgte's topic in General Car Chat
i live in stoke sub hamdon but also have a place in yeovil.but i have made my mind up on what car i want.ive decided to go for the corrado vr6.the transfer box in calibra can cause ALOT of problems.i was looking at some on the owners cars and quite simply they are rude as.then went on a calibra website looking at owners cars and it didnt have the same effect on me.i have read so many reviews on both cars that my head was hurting but every single review said the same.corrado is better.so im now a 'dubster or v dub' man.thanks to vx for the great time we had :( but time to have a car that handles :D and that i dont get pulled over every week :D :D !!!!!. -

"I HATE VAUXHALL CALIBRA'S, but then there is a reason for that....".u got beaten by one didnt u???.calibra turbo is 204bhp with 201lb 4x4 and 6 speed.0-60 6.4 1/4 mile is 14.4 so corrado is slower.im trying to look at both cars rather than what make it is.corrado is better looking but abit slower.inside they are the same really,alittle bit boring but hey what car isnt(audi tt comes to mind).they are both heavy cars and both drink fuel like a somerset girl drinks beer.corrados are more money to buy and insure but dont lose money as quickly as a calibra.i have found a clip of a 440bhp supercharged golf vr6 if any wants the link?.rapid!!!!. -

after owning vxs for 11 years i just thought id like a change.i agree that calibras are not as good looking as a corrado but looks are not everything and i just want a car with some charm.i would still like to hear a vr6 fly by or a pass by.i live in the sticks in somerset so i dont really know what they sound like.and no im not stupid but i really wanna hear what all the fuss is about when it comes to the vr6 sound. -

the calibra would b right there!!!.ive driven a calibra turbo and they r fast alright but i havent driven a corrado vr6.the corrado i was looking at has done 160k but has full vwsh so should i b looking to buy or walking away?.the corrado is clean and has had loads of money spent on it. -
new to forum so hello people.my best friend is a vw nut and loves them to bits.im more a vx fan.i have just sold my astra gte 16v and wanted a calibra turbo but best mate says i should get a corrado vr6.the question i wanted to know is why???.why should i buy a corrado vr6 over a calibra turbo yes the turbo would eat vr6 for breakfast in a race i have no doubts about that but after owning a mk2 astra i would like to have abit of a idea of whats going to happen when u go around a corner!!!!.i would love to hear a vr6 in a video clip or just the sound as around where i live there r no corrado vr6s at all.everyone seems to talk about this bca bma :oops: air filter so what power gains do u get and what does it sound like??????.so why should i get a vr6 over a turbo?.and dont talk about the transfer box on calibra they can break but doesnt everycar have something thats 'weak'.
