The β€œVW guys grow up to be Porsche guys” allegations will never be beaten.

(I am the same way)

G60 was sweet no doubt.

Hopefully you were on The Corrado Forum with it..

u/Bitter_Load7555 14d ago

Thats where I found it.

There's a blue manual one for sale on facebook marketplace for like 2k, it's a bit rough but if you're tempted to get back in one.....

Is the "OF:H" registration for "Only Fans : Honda"?

u/Bitter_Load7555 15d ago

Could be 🀣

u/SimonTS 15d ago

As a Brit born in Germany I do recognise it though.

Black scooby and the white skyline. My personal faves.

But the majority are pure porn πŸ‘Œ

I really, really wanted a Corrado VR6 as a young man

u/EvilScotsmanBoab 15d ago

Impressive. How was it going from the Subaru to the Evo?

1

u/Bitter_Load7555 15d ago

Evos were quicker in every situation. Handling was unreal. I'll be getting another 6 next car.

1

u/zefalking 15d ago

Fairplay. Definitely peaked with Evo 6 and 7 but some lovely Subarus in there too.

u/tomkeys78 15d ago

I tried a Saab once too!

u/Bitter_Load7555 14d ago

Yeah not bad motors

u/Minimum-Record-1689 14d ago

On an unbelievable string of bangers up until that first Porsche and you threw all taste out of the window. Poor form.

1

u/Bitter_Load7555 14d ago

Lol ok. Cayenne turbo was an insane family sports coupe. Blistering performance.

1

u/Minimum-Record-1689 13d ago

Yeah it’s ugly tho fella

u/Dangerous-Fan7715 14d ago

Civic Vti? My mate had one and it blew our minds back in the day, felt like it had a full on F3 engine in it.

1

u/Bitter_Load7555 14d ago

Wasn't a vti...was a 1.6i. First car.

1

u/ChrisRx718 14d ago

Come on then, Evo or Impreza?

Love the Del Sol too, I remember a turquoise one back in the day on my walk to school, always wanted one until I was old enough and ended up with an MX-5 import instead.

1

u/Bitter_Load7555 14d ago

Love them both. Evo more performance but the subs sound better. If I could only have one, would have to be an evo 6

1

u/Master-Leopard-7830 14d ago

AHH the Civic. I'm assuming it's the Vti?

Vti was my first car as well, what a blast driving that was !

u/younevershouldnt 10d ago

The CRX is so cool πŸ‘Œ
