Just bought a Corrado, red automatic with a rather neat 'go faster button' that changes the ratios - unusual I'm told. Looking forward to many hours of fun, notably resolving a few repairs for which I'm bound to be seeking help

I'll sort some pics out when it is not pi**ing down (the joys of Scotland) the button sits adjacent the auto selector and in essence reduces the revs required between the auto gear shifting - you can accelerate faster. The seller advised it was very rare and that in his ownership research he thought there were only ever 4 such cars in the UK. I have found nowt to date on any others

My old manual car had overdrive in 3rd and 4th. Passengers were bemused by the dash mounted switch to get 3rd.5 or 4th.5

 

O and welcome aboard.
