[CTWG60 0]

VW-Motorsport builded also 2 of 16V G60 Corrado, one with 2WD and one with all wheel drive. Extraordinary on this two Corrado

Um, yes. As far as I know this is true. Great engine. Questionable styling....

Kinda covered this now, IIRC correctly there was more than 1 of these 4wd beasts as Karmann crashed one on a test track a long time ago.

Its really interesting to read about Corrados that never hade seen the light.

That Limited is seriously uggly but I wonder what happen to his brother, the 4WD Corrado...

There is of course another 16VG60 Corrado kept in the Karmann museum. We've seen it a few times now. It's totally standard looking from the outside and relatively standard on the inside (save a bespoke armrest sitting above the handbrake tunnel) - the sticker in the boot says that it's an alpine white G60 but it's a nice sort of dark metallic grey, and if you pop the bonnet it has a genuine VWM 16VG60... rather nice! :)

that to me looks like a homebrew 16vg60, doesnt look as neat as the vwm one, and the alternator doesnt quite look right stuffed behind the engine in one of the pics...

One thing... the 16V inslet doesnt look like the ordinary thing you would find on a 16V GTi, is that because its made by VWMS?

Besides that its a great looking car with a mean engine bay!

VWMS did know what they where doing! :lol:

 

But its a pitty that VWMS dont tune any of the new VW that is for sale so we can se some mean GTi on the street!

its very similar to the old scirocco 16v manifold, ie the throttle body comes off the right side of the manifold as opposed to the normal left side..

 

there is a reason for this and im sure its to do with the supercharger... i may be wrong..
