Cool. If it had Rallye model with Syncro AWD system, it would be sub zero.
 
Beyond sub-zero. We're talking about a Volkswagen that was built on a previous-generation chassis that remained beyond relevant even after its death. Although we can complain about the lag issues of the G60 (the ladder-charger was not a good idea), the advancements with the SLC model make the car a modern legend.

I only wish the current Scirocco was half as cool as the Corrado.
 
The Corrado was a reasonably sized, practical, fun, good-looking car that wasn't over-the-top and didn't catch much attention. There aren't any negative driver stereotypes that I can think of. It was a good car. It was also quite a capable handler and had some balls under the hood.

It's a cool car.
 
Very cool car, would love to stick an R32 engine in it and give it some forced induction.

My dad had a VR6 golf, and this is even cooler.

Mmmmm.
 
It's certainly cool, but it doesn't ring the bell that cues sub-zero. Love it desperately, but still just cool.

yup.
 
When they came out, they were driven exclusively by branch managers of estate agent (realtor) chains and middle managers with overinflated senses of masculinity (tossers). When they got cheaper, they were driven exclusively by the sort of tossers who wished they were those kind of tossers. They're just tossermobiles.

Couldn't be cool if it was dipped in liquid helium.
 
I don' mind the Corrado - it's nothing special underneath but it looks sort of cool, at least. It's too small for my tastes though.

But, it still gets a 'cool' rating because it was my first car in Forza 2 and it's awesome fun to drive around the smaller tracks. :) Yay Sentimentality!
 
The VR6 may be the most wonderful engine ever conceived by man, and this is the best car they ever put it in.


All of my Cool.
 
Cool when in original condition, seriously uncool when looking like^^

Since you can't blame the car for it's owner, I vote cool. The VR6 engine is a gem, to me one of the best sounding engines ever made. I'd love to own one.
 
Yeah, it pretty much vindicated what I posted.

Regarding the second-hand vehicles, yes. I'm only too young to know what type of people bought them new, so I don't have any bias when it comes to unmolested ones ;)
 
Ah well I think it's cool, well, all apart from the bonnet vents. And I appreciate them as standard cars too :D
