I should sell my Corrado but I won't thread !!

[eggplantslc]

1992 SLC (234K on body) 44K miles on full mechanical restoration 2.9 etc. I drive it 3K per year.. I'd never sell it for 2700 - 5300 like what I am seeing. In 2007 I could have gotten 12K.. Its not my daily obviously anyone else in the same boat ?.

[smawgunner45]

Like most of us....I've got waaaay too much $ wrapped up in this thing to even come close to breaking even if I sold it. So.....for now I'm stuck with the beeeauch.....but don't I love it.

70miles all original, I could sell for top dollar but then I would need another 10k for the the next car driving me into more debt. ill just keep it.

[Shere Khan]

Had mine for 12 years. Used everyday for the first 3 years.
It sat for the last 8 years and last summer brought it back to life.
No way its ever getting sold, I said the same thing for 8 years.
The Corrado does not get sold.

For me, the money you get for it will never outlive the feeling you get of letting it go

Your car looked good yesterday.
Don't know about top dollar unless you mean 5k, That full eurospec 2.9 dark blue late spec sunroofless didn't sell for much, its at my work without the RS's.

Hmm.....let me think.....This is Every Corrado owners dilemma.

I bought a Corrado for $4,000 USD. Have put $18K into it over the last 6 Years. Hmm......Selling it is not an option.

For any fool looking at a Corrado as an investment, Do not put any money into a Corrado unless you want to loose money building them for others to buy off you later, or any older VW for that matter. Insurance will not pay you what you have into it if it gets wrecked and totaled. Be prepared for Heart Ache with this car....but the joy of ripping 3rd gear down a Highway or a closed road when the car is running great.......Priceless.

Just like trying to divorce a chick, It is Cheaper to Keep Her.

i was also thinking of selling mine..
body has 346000km engine 100000km after rebuilding..

every C I sold, later I ended up regretting it.. finding a car with as much character would cost 10x as much...

Well both of mine are sitting bone stock with a huge parts collection for the SLC. The G60 needs to be sold but I won't get a a quarter of what I have in it. I think its worth more than average being 100% stock besides the exhaust and its never been wrecked. I had it repainted because the paint was completely faded on the nonmetal parts. I would probably get offered $2k for it and I'd laugh in their face. I'll just have them attach handles to the sides and get buried in it when I kick the bucket.

[Tk2g60]

I owned my g60 for 12 years and it sat for the last 5-6 of ownership. I told my self I would never ever sell it. But then I had this light bulb go off in my head I started thinking if I sold it and all the parts I had for it and put that towards all the money I have been also saving for the project that I could find a even better one with a vr6 instead

So I did it and I don't regret it at all now I can never replace all of the old memories from the g60 that we shared but Its a new beginning for the vr6 and I and along with that comes many more new memories

[IMWALKIN]

I never think of selling...I dont wish this s*it on anyone... corrados build character..if you cant hang...sell your stuff to me... I havent had one long enough to complain really....but my life is kinda like a corrado, never right but just enough to keep you going..

yeah! 5k as it sits now, I would be lucky to get $4 in its current condition. any pictures of that eurospec you got? interior please. was always curious is to what it looked like up close

Personally I think your cars worth about 7 from looks.
The interior is just ugly eurospec cloth seats and the drivers seat is pretty worn. If you actually wont pics i will grab some cell phone pics.
I'd never sell my car simply because it wouldn't help me out finically so what's the point, I live in the land of $500,000-1,000,000 homes what's $5,000 dollars gonna do? buy me a door and a some carpet lol. Basically i'm saying it would need to be enough money to make a difference or what's the point.

every little bit counts when saving for a down payment. but yeah I would like to see some pics. I know the guy was asking like $14,000 or something crazy like that. but I heard it was ugly up close just. pics would be great!

I know what my cars worth

Its on its 3rd owner now I believe, last time i saw it it was for sale in langley for like 6-7 and less with out wheels it doesn't have the rs's on it so I take it new owner grab it for cheap. It's been at work since last week and we haven't even touched it so my guess is its not in great mechanical shape.
