Hello I am thinking of buying a Corrado soon (Well once I sold the 300zx TT).

 

I really looking for some pointers on the G60 and VR6 I read some stuff on the net but like to here more for people on this forum what thay like to drive, run, what to look out for..

 

I probably not the 1st or last person to ask this so I say sorry now :oops:

best starting point is the buyers guide, it'll tell you most of what you want to know in terms of what to look out for. http://the-corrado.net/.archive/forum/viewtopic.php?t=5124

 

Other than that the best advice has always been to drive a couple of examples of each and see what you prefer since the g60 and vr6 have fairly different engine characteristics.

Hello and welcome,

 

Don't buy the first one you see.

 

Don't be scarred of high mileage on either the VR or the G60 as long as you have reciepts for timing chains on the VR and a charger rebuild on the G60.

 

I would also look to budget to get most of the suspension bushes and dampers + springs replaced as well. You will definately notice the difference in the ride and handling, there are plenty of threads covering these topics.

 

Not trying to put you off getting a C more letting you know what you may be in for and what is worth doing to get the best out of the car, or already added to the car/s you are looking at.

Get a good VR pay good money for it and get it from someone that know what they are talking about. Not some stupid monkey calling them self a Corrado dealer. AND DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON A STORM

Hello there, the STORM not a waste of money, you pay for what you get :lol:

I'll second that

just a note on g60's....if you see a rebuild reciept from jabbasport, dont trust the charger as a few of us have had probs with under 10k miles on them

 

g werks and pitstop both come on here and can take of any charger work you need

I think storms are proabably worth it, jsut depends on the example you see. Mines for sale at the mo, depends what your budget is tho I guess.

Right printed off the buying guide time to have a good read..

 

I must say I think I well go for a VR, but I do like the idea of G60 for the supercharge novelty if you no what I mean.

 

I well have up to 5k to spend. I guess its time to test drive both 8)

 

Plus just like to say thanks for the pointers and for everyone being friendly too.

Well it looks like I got a buyer for the 300 :cry: So I should be looking for a G60 or VR in a weeks time :D

Welcome & good luck with the search!

AND DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON A STORM

 

guess who hasn't got one :)

[Storm77 0]

I think as soon as you climb up on a VR and hear that V6 symphony, you'll be sold!! That's what clinched it for me. Just the way the note changes into a howl when you step on it! :D

 

P.S. A good Storm is worth every penny :wink:

[StormchargedVR6 0]

Defo guys, STORMS the one :D

[jay w 0]

Well people I have yes yes I have got a Corrado VR6.... Took a bit of a round about way of getting one (like selling the 300zx and getting a S2....) but the S2 was sold last night and I won a bid on a black VR needs some bits sorting but she drives great..
