with which motor and how much money?
corrado's arent really 1/4m cars, but there are a few in VR6's the 11's both NA and boosted. if you want a fast 1/4 VW, get a Mk2 golf and put a VR6 in there. the chasis is much lighter and the motor plops right in.

Get a 95 VR6 and put a turbo set up on there. 75 shot of nitrous, and some suspension and lightening work and you have a rocket.

95 corrados are only available in canada. there are pros and cons to having a canadian corrado, but performance wise, they are more or less identical. i've never seen a VR6 turbo corrado break the mid 11's...and there have only been like 2 or 3, ever.

Re: what can they do

Well i have seen 600hp turbo VR6's (95 VR6's). Not sure what times they ran but im sure they are fast. But i wouldent look into a Corrado for shear speed. It is more of a love for the car that is required not so much a need for speed (if speed is all that matters buy a camarro).

Sorry to sound like an idiot but what exactly are the pros and cons of having a Canadian 1995 Corrado VR6??

no more than owning any canadian corrado. the canadian models dont have automatic seatbelts, which is nice. they also do NOT have fog lights since their bumpers are rated differently and the rebar behing the bumper skin is different. they also have a shelf where the knee gaurds are in the US versions. and you can get headlight squirters on the bumper and cloth Recaro interior aka hot!
i was just pointing out that 95's were only available in canada since you specified 95 VR6.
