The amount of people who told me to "stance" my old corrado when i owned it was terrible, yes i want my alright standard car to look just like the rest of the ride ruined, stupid looking flock that were part of the worst car-fad going.

Nick Zarnetske - BBS? Nah man 15” speedlines

SLC (why??) why not VR6

I've got those BBS wheels on my 88 Fox wagon. I think it's the only other car on which they look good

My brothers buddy had a 1990 model it was definitely a cool car for a 17 year old kid. We had alot of fun it that thing

*inline 7* pathetic

@@Anonymoose345 STRAIGHT. FOURTEEN. Two-stroke diesel. Most powerful engine in the world, according to the Wikipedia article.

How about the W8 in the Passat??

Rx7 laughs in rotary

@@taforth W8 is in the same family as the VR6, it’s pretty much two VR4s put together for a V8 (in the same way a V8 is two inline fours put together, and by that I mean, it obviously isn’t that, but that’s kinda what it is.

yup timings off..

12 year-old me was so hyped for that game... Didn't dissapoint.

“On the bright side, this fine automobile shouldn’t get you killed!”

man am i glad a friend of mine got that game for christmas and gave it to me for like 10€ bc he doesnt like racing games

Likewise, but for Midnight Club LA. It, a 240SX, or another hatch I can't remember, were the starter cars. The Corrado is like four shades of B R O W N.

Did you ever find out if it was your car?

Update ?

How cool would that be to have your car be in an RCR? The Karmann Ghia he reviewed was actually on BaT a while ago, probably one of the most complimentary videos he’s had besides the Delorean

Update yet?

Lol I’m from Lancaster. The people at that dealer are tools

mattmopar440 probably, my 91 passat does

mattmopar440 my 04 1.8t gls does too

mattmopar440 Oh hai there Matt Farah

every euro car from the 90's smells like crayon to me.

Oh my God I never knew this was a thing. I had relatives with an 89 Golf and a late 80's-something Quantum (remember those), and I swear they smelled like that.

Yeah most of them on this side of the pond got absolutely ruined.

VW communities as a whole love to completely ruin cars. They stance literally everything. It makes me really depressed, because there's some good cars in there, but all you get if you own one is WHEN R U GONNA STANCE IT BRO

I don't mind the properly meaty stanced ones, with some nice interior mods. they look badass lowered (not slammed)

VW Bros are the present day Honda Kids, imo. MUH CHIP MUH STAGE TWO I'MMA PUT PORSCHE WHEELS ON MY PASSAT, IT'S GONNA BE LIT AF FAM

Nah man, Porsche wheels might actually look good. If you want to be cool you need some of those ugly-ass Bentley wheels so your car can look shitty all around

Liam S well thats one way to experience anal

Wtf did i just read?

Good for you

You-you lived??or were those your dying words to the EMTs?

You lie. And no one wanted to hear that. Go away

Yes, Mr Regular didn't really touch on typical Corrado reliability issues... like ripping out the dash to replace the heater matrix that is prone to failure etc.

TassieLorenzo That wasn't as much of a Corrado problem as it was a 90's VW problem. My 97 Jettas both suffer from the same issue.

Any modern car requires you to take the dash out.

WinrickRacing -- I know that. :) The point is that in other cars, the heater system doesn't biodegrade, leak coolant over the carpets, and need replacing. ;)

That is most cars with heater cores inside the firewall. Which is most cars.

Kingsley Abrokwah same honestly

Kingsley Abrokwah I got into cars because of rcr!

I got into MrRegular because of cars

I just love their writing and humor.

Mr Regular, this is quite an accomplishment. This is something even chris Harris and all the big car guy couldn't do.

That's because this was the Honda in the VW lineup.

I was looking at it and thinking that it's oddly similar to an EM1, (Or perhaps I should say that the other way around since the 6th gen SI didn't show up till 6 years later.

Scirocco's from the 80-90s are even rarer. Those are really the cult ones.

my first car was a mk2 scirocco and its the reason i still drive and love vw

I live in Germany and even I am excited when I see an old Scirocco. Those cars are absolutely beautiful. My dad says he loved it nearly as much as the 924S he owned after that.

He probably meant 100k

I chuckled also at this statement. 😄

He probably meant 97k corrados ever. 10k of which being vr6 models.

Yeah, I caught that, too. Like my Dad always said..."pobody's nerfict!"

And the W12 from the pheaton/touareg/bentley, and ofc the W16 from the Veyron

You mean, it's two VR4 mashed together.

arrrg cars in pain

Free hydraulics, can't complain.

Probably semi-seized like my MK3 always used to do on cold mornings.

I had a mk3 but it was automatic and had the world's loudest central locking and it had 7 previous owners

3 Clicks Max :-)

Actually, he trashtalks most cars tbh

Yup, and by the time they became affordable, they were worn out worse than any Honda Civic

Jesus thats expensive

It's 4:30 in the fuck morning. That counts

BlueHokage It sure ain't dawn in there either

@Heartamram 4:30 in the fuck morning? Is this a day I hadn't heard about?

JakeAviator timezones are a bitch ain't they..

@ 8:28

I just noticed it. Mr. R. should start a new channel called "Regular Math Reviews"

This whole video is a bit weird, he kept making lots of little speaking mistakes, like he was a bit drunk or something lol

TehBootyBandit ya a huge mistake was claiming the VR6 feels like a four cylinder. NOT EVEN CLOSE BUDDY. No 4 banger will ever sound as good as the VR6 or have the low end torque of it. This dude is definitely drunk.

He is probably comparing the VR6 to a much newer 4-cylinder. They subjectively feel similar, but if you compare four cylinders from the same era as that Corrado, it would feel much weaker.

True, there's not a single one I found that is stock. All previous owners did something with it one way or another. Mine was also pre-tuned, and I had the choice to downgrade it back to stock, or improve upon it and actually make it professional looking. I chose the latter hehe, but I kept interior pretty much stock. Nothing wrong with recaro and Harman Kardon.

@@Xtoxinlolinecronomicon A buddy of mine went looking for one (early midlife crisis), either they were way WAY too expensive or they were worn out by 18 year olds thinking redline = boostpressure

GM had already registered the Typhoon trademark for the US in preparation for the *drool* 1992-93 GMC Typhoon.

Yup, nostalgia is hitting me with searing intensity.

That’s where I discovered this car

Just call it Forza Horizon. Putting the 1 after it is just redundant man.

@@tombstonejones9581 he was trying to emphasize that is the first game and that its old

@@tombstonejones9581 I find it reasonable

you mean Lou Donaldson?

Nah that was LSD A$AP

Will Mol good for you man!!

Will Mol I had a 2003 Passat sedan with the W8 that had 70k miles when I bought it in 2012. Awesome car, and stupid fast.

W engines just make me think of Soos with his homemade "W-neck" t-shirt.

Will Mol Dear Lord, I've always wanted a W8 wagon.. I'm stuck with a 1.8T Passat wagon, still pretty nice looking for it's age tho.

I really like the idea of a having an eight-cylinder Passat, especially a manual one. How does yours treat you? I've heard mixed stories about engine reliability.

Same

I've wanted one since Forza 1 :P

I WANTED ONE SINCE GT 2.

Kuri Brown the 95 is real nice

Kuri Brown I never thought this car existed too . Thank you Forza Horizon , best started car...

Kuri Brown I beat 25% of the game in this car it's that fast later I tuned it and it went very fast until I have to race against that Lamborghini Diablo boss and I had to use a freaking different car.

Real shame, that metallic color is also quite hard to find these days. It's all purple, black and silver now.

It was a crying shame. Literally. I think I cried when I got t-boned by some uninsured dude in his POS VW bug.

Seen a lot of them come and go too. A few droven into ponds or rivers, and they write them off.

bassumarus Well then your not one of the kids ruining them, its that dumbass's fault for wrecking your baby, isn't it?

You didn't have a brush racing green German car. You had a dark green German car..

Matevž Malenšek if he ever comes overseas he should definitively grab a Calibra

If he can find one. In my part of EU most of them got tuned, blown up or written off. It's even hard to find a base 115bhp version.

You forgot the Fiat Barchetta. :)

Matevž Malenšek we had chevy luminas :(

Matevž Malenšek IMO the Lumina was a tank in comparison. I'd take the Lumina. Slower yes, but you could have a rave in it if you wanted. Even fit a few bodies in the trunk while you're sucking on a pacifier and flipping glow sticks up front.

William Low wow congrats

Thats when they were good games

@@shuto.k5124 Forza Horizon 4 is incredible tho

N O S T A L G I A A T T A C K

speaking of.. the thing makes a pretty badass drift machine in horizon 4

Forza Horizon 4. It and the old VW Golf are great sleepers.

But that's only technically correct. It's false advertising. Yes there may be two cams per cylinder head but that's not what actually matters. In a proper DOHC one camshaft operates the intake and one the exhaust, which is what allows for superior performance. In the Corrado VR6 that is simply not the case. Yes there may only be one cylinder head and therefore two cams per cylinder head, but it's still a V6, it's still separate banks of cylinders, just a lot closer together than usual, and each camshaft is still only operating ONE bank of cylinders, not both, therefore it doesn't actually function like a DOHC. It only has 12 valves. So calling it a DOHC is a complete marketing lie. And no, it's not that weird an engine. Again, it's just a V6 with a very narrow angle. It's still a great engine, but it's almost puzzling to me how no one figured they could do that before. And just like all V engines, it's a measure taken to save space, so a proper L6 still has more torque and more potential power, and imo better sound. Great engine for a compact car though, props to VW for making it.

George Perakis If you haven't seen Engineering Explained's video you should check it out. He concludes that it's technically an inline 6. It has the same firing order as an inline and doesn't need a balance that V6 engines do. It also is technically DOHC. It seems difficult to imagine because it seems like there are two banks of cylinders but there is actually only one row of cylinders, just not in a straight line path.

George Perakis it has the same crankshaft angle thought as an I6.

George Perakis Lol who gives a shit they sound so sexy. Even more so in a mk1.

How can an engine sound sexier in one model opposed to the other asssuming all variables are the same? (sound deadening , exhaust system , high flow filter.)

You mean the Gracie Films logo?

Amesie's Automotive Corner Haha funny thing is I had a 1.6td in a rabbit pickup, with the boost cranked and it killed my cousins g60 corrado.

Strange, I thought I saw your video weeks ago. You re upload it?

The only thing wrong with my Scirocco: front-wheel drive.

@@bartricky5894 Rocco's still handle so good though

get one

They have kind of always had that problem in the US which is why the people that bought them were full samba kool aid drinkers, the "sporty" vw guys are always weird lol
