VOLKSWAGEN CORRADO VR6
VOLKSWAGEN CORRADO VR6
The Volkswagen Corrado is a sports car that was produced by the German car manufacturer Volkswagen in cooperation with Karmann at the Osnabrück production plant between 1988 and 1995. In 1990, it also went on sale in the USA.
Auto express magazine described the car as “considered one of Volkswagen’s best-handling cars”. The vr6 made car magazine’s “25 cars you must drive before you die” list and was named “by far the most desirable version of the Corrado” by auto express magazine.
All models have a rear spoiler that automatically extends when the car reaches speeds between 72 and 97 km/h (depending on country and model)
