Corrado, how I wish for thee

Well, I've always admired the Corrado, always watch them on the road, see them online, scour the classifieds for them...Just want to own one. Some day I hope.

But without many cars to choose from, plus limited funding (not to mention losing money from WorldCom), the Corrado continues to remain out of reach. Whenever one appears in the area, I still try and find a way.

1990 Corrado at Rochester International Auto Show

My first exposure to the Corrado, when I was nearly 5 years old. There's the G60 on the upper level of the local auto show here in Rochester, next to the newly designed Passat. A yellow Cabriolet, Vanagon, and a GLI are all in the backround. I was entranced by the car from the beginning.

1992 Corrado SLC at Lewisburg Motors

Jump ahead to 2000, a car lot off of Route 15, here I pose by a C. First time I remmber getting up close to such a great example. Priced too high for what it was worth. Plus I want a '93

White European Model Corrado

I don't know too much about this car. It was on top of the parking garage near Venice, Italy, where we left our car before entering the city by water of course. Even while on vacation, I still looked for the Corrados.
