I'm looking to buy a clean '93 Corrado SLC with low miles. Please email pics, details, and price and we'll go from there. I'm located in Los Angeles. Thanks.

Best,

Hello all,

First of all, let me start off by saying I think its only fair to sell this to VW and Corrado enthusiasts and not as a daily driver for some random college kid. The car runs and has a less miles on it than your typical 20+year old car, but you all know that Corrados require attention, and these aren't common cars, and these aren't cars even your average Joe mechanic is familiar with. These cars are becoming endangered and they deserve to be taken care of from special individuals. This Corrado has had a lot of attention mechanically, and therefore mechanically it is in good shape, (with the exception of a few minor wear and tear details), and has had a lot previously replaced. Cosmetically on the other hand, due to its previous location with the previous owner, it needs some attention and thats the main consideration i'm taking in with the price. I'll break down the details below.

Also i want to mention this car has been garaged for a few years and most recently has been brought back to life. This includes smog, which you know is a bitch in California. Fresh stickers are now coming in the mail.



Lets start with the GOOD:
* IT RUNS!! - No problems with the 1.8 engine, recent tune up
-new plugs/cables/rotor/cap
-fresh oil (synthetic) and filter
-coolant (g12 pink stuff upgrade)
-fresh air filter
-new fuel filter
-new fuel pump
-new fuel gasket
-new battery
-alternator was replaced a few years ago
*BBM solid engine mount
-G-ladder stock supercharger still intact (however I would strongly recommend getting it rebuilt unless you plan to replace it with an alternative charger)
-interior in decent shape
-spoiler still functions
-illuminated gauges
-projector style upgraded headlamps
-Fuzion tires have very few miles on them (although wheels might be bigger than most people prefer for a corrado -17")
-transmission is good, sometimes you have to take it easy shifting in reverse though
-brand new illuminated shift knob (audi TT style)
*Passat glass moon roof provided but not installed- will replace bad sunroof (see below)

The "BAD"
*original sunroof was sealed by the previous owner with some kind of calk since i imagine it leaked, and the switch was disconnected (however, i have a replacement switch and a full moon roof to replace the whole system - will require some work)
*Car needs a respray - as i mentioned, the most notable issues with this car are cosmetic. There is clear-coat damage on the hood and roof, major chipping on the rear bumper, some minor rust surrounding the back hatch window, some scratches, and quite a few small dents on both doors. Some bondo and a new coat of paint will be good for this car, body wise though its ok. it hasn't been in any wrecks or fender-benders so you won't need new bumpers or anything like that, just needs a make-over.
-no A/C or heater - heater core is bypassed (most of you know this is a typical thing for a Corrado at this age) I learned to live without it for several years, however it is fixable if you're willing to dig in there
-Clarion aftermarket radio/cd player stopped working a few years ago - probably a fuse or wire problem, just never bothered with it. Still have the deck and everything.


Well thats all i can think of at the moment. the car is in San Diego, east county, more specifically Lemon Grove. However i'm in Burbank so if you'd like to just look at the car I can give you the address and you can check it out. If you're actually strongly interested and would like to drive it or check it out under the hood, etc, then let me know in advance and we'll arrange something so i can come down. Email me directly for a faster response, psyched550@yahoo.com Thanks!

Looking to purchase a stock, unmolested g60 or SLC relatively close to the Philadelphia area. It doesn't need to be a show car but should be in decent running condition. Willing to pay a fair price.

I have a '91 g60 with an automatic transmission. It has lost the ability to drop down into the passing (kick down) gear when I hit the accelerator. I used to be able to reset the transmission by holding down the gas pedal for 20-30 seconds but that no longer works. Any suggestions?]]> Petesky Technical & Chat Board Sun, 22 Apr 2012 09:39:36 -0700 http://www.corradoworld.com/phorum/read.php?6,694,694#msg-694 http://www.corradoworld.com/phorum/read.php?6,694,694#msg-694 tod914@yahoo.com]]> tod914 Buy, Sell & Trade Forum Sun, 22 Apr 2012 09:28:21 -0700 http://www.corradoworld.com/phorum/read.php?2,692,692#msg-692 http://www.corradoworld.com/phorum/read.php?2,692,692#msg-692 -HM]]> handmade66 Technical & Chat Board Wed, 18 Apr 2012 09:50:35 -0700 http://www.corradoworld.com/phorum/read.php?6,691,691#msg-691 http://www.corradoworld.com/phorum/read.php?6,691,691#msg-691 -HM]]> handmade66 Buy, Sell & Trade Forum Tue, 24 Apr 2012 20:00:21 -0700 http://www.corradoworld.com/phorum/read.php?2,689,689#msg-689 http://www.corradoworld.com/phorum/read.php?2,689,689#msg-689 vtimekw92 Technical & Chat Board Thu, 03 May 2012 19:15:14 -0700 http://www.corradoworld.com/phorum/read.php?2,684,684#msg-684 http://www.corradoworld.com/phorum/read.php?2,684,684#msg-684 Parker VW Technical & Chat Board Sat, 05 May 2012 10:26:48 -0700 http://www.corradoworld.com/phorum/read.php?2,682,682#msg-682 http://www.corradoworld.com/phorum/read.php?2,682,682#msg-682 Trainedmonkey101 Technical & Chat Board Tue, 24 Apr 2012 20:23:58 -0700 http://www.corradoworld.com/phorum/read.php?2,678,678#msg-678 http://www.corradoworld.com/phorum/read.php?2,678,678#msg-678 corrado-boy Technical & Chat Board Sat, 05 May 2012 10:34:40 -0700 http://www.corradoworld.com/phorum/read.php?2,676,676#msg-676 http://www.corradoworld.com/phorum/read.php?2,676,676#msg-676
I own a a 1991 corrado g60 about a month ago I noticed my corrado wasent accelerating at all. I checked the engine and noticed the accelerator cable was out of place. Upon further inspection I also noticed that the component where the accelerator cable is wrapped around was broken. As you can see on the photo, the left piece (black rubber like hook) broke so the cable is not securely attached. Problem is I dont know the name of the enitre part. I removed the part and took it to an auto part store but no help there. Can someone please help me know the name of this part for my corrado? part number? or even where I might be able to order the part? I live in Hawaii if there is any where near. Thank you kindly for taking the time to read my post.

Located in upstate NY.

It is complete and in good shape, except no motor or transmission.

I have been waiting to complete to car myself, but have decided to just cut my loss and sell.

*I also have some miscellaneous corrado parts as well.

Call 585-298-0893.

Please, serious inquires only.]]> mb1 Buy, Sell & Trade Forum Fri, 30 Mar 2012 09:31:56 -0700 http://www.corradoworld.com/phorum/read.php?2,665,665#msg-665 http://www.corradoworld.com/phorum/read.php?2,665,665#msg-665 90g60corrado Technical & Chat Board Mon, 19 Mar 2012 08:55:28 -0700 http://www.corradoworld.com/phorum/read.php?2,664,664#msg-664 http://www.corradoworld.com/phorum/read.php?2,664,664#msg-664 Anyone recognize the small flex hose (pictured with the hose clamp) that leads into the air box? Know the actual name or part # for it? I was checking my air filter before my first spring drive when I noticed a clean break completely through in the hose. It's too awkward to reach to try taping up a temporary quick-fix. Can I drive the 20km to my mechanic?
