hello forum,

everyone knows that g60's are cool.

i have driven a g60 corrado and it was quite good, power from low down and a wicked noise form the engine!

you got it in one, the mighty G60,
i had a corrado G60 which was so much fun, 0-60in as long as it takes the tyres to grip, i got 153mph (indicated) out of a standard one, am in the middle of now moving the engine into a mk2 golf as i crashed it 5mins after reaching 153mph and also if you have an original one you have to pay stupid insurance as it LHD convert one into a older mk2 car and you get cheap insurance, can't wait to get the car on the strip should be very quick.
anyway they are quick cars average mpg is around 22, just very dangerous for you licence as 110mph seems like an 8v's 70mph

i don't know cause my friend passed me at his off the clock 160 in his rice machine and he's didn't fly by, might i add it had a new charger on it just worn in at 1500 miles and boost was kicking in lovely,

Go for one if you can get it. The torque is superb and is so responsive. 150+mph is pretty amazing for a standard rado g60, but have to agree that you're up near the licence losing speeds pdq
