1992 Silver SLC Corrado, nearly 30k in receipts, WTT/FS

[Superveedub]

Hello all, (SOLD)

I'm in no rush to get rid of this car, but I've been toying with the idea of trading it (or selling it for the right price of course). I just want something a little different, I've had plenty of VR6's in my day and instead of doing a swap on this car, I'd rather give someone else the opportunity to enjoy it as is.

This is a 1992 SLC Corrado, built 4.02.92, has 150k +/- miles (daily). Cluster went out recently so It shows as in the 115k range, and has the 93+ style gauges however I saved the early style gauge faces. Transmission has about 120K on it, when I bought the car the trans was shot, so I replaced it with a known good unit that also has a TDI 5th in it. The car is fast, fun, and reliable.

Here is a list of some things it has going for it,
3.0L EIP tuning car+ receipts for everything done
Very well maintained, again, receipts for everything
Car came from the south I believe, extremely clean underneath, no rot
Spoiler works at speed
Sunroof works (although I never retract it back, I've had too many MKIII's that stayed open..)
Full leather interior, as well as a full grey/blue cloth interior that came out of it
All gauges work, minus the coolant temp (due to old wiring, the wire on the sensor came out of the connector and I haven't had the time to fix it.)
sounds GREAT
Nuespeed strut bar
All glass is good
Eyelid

Few things done under my ownership,
Coolant system refresh (Billet crack pipe, all new hoses, new water pump, coolant tank, housings, t-stat, etc.)
Timing chains + all hardware to get to them
Religious oil changes, 5w40 synthetic
FK coils with new strut mounts/bearings/etc
Longbeaches with new tires
Sparkplugs
02 Sensor
Leather interior/cluster as mentioned earlier
Trans fluids changed when installed
3" Mandrel bent catback (with highflow cat) from MBS

Things that aren't perfect,
E-brake doesn't work (Have COMPLETE new rear brakes with MKIV calipers and e brake cables that go with the car if I dont get around to it)
Brakes are pretty worn (as I said I have complete rears, and fronts are on the list soon)
Its a higher mileage VR6, I watch oil levels.. It doesnt burn much oil unless abused when cold which I dont do.
Whiny PS pump
Shifter has a bit of play, nothing excess but the usual for an 02A

Dings/Dents
Hood was dropped on an engine cradle, nice dent/little rust spot there now (recent)
Front bumper is kinda goofed up, not sure the story on that, its how I bought it
Rear bumper has defects (you will see in the picture)
Dent in the Pass. Quarter
Passenger fender/door has a bit of damage
Some small dings in the roof

Things it could come with deal depending,
French Ecodes with Tmtuning harness
Borbets shown in one of the pictures (they have some bends in them, hence why I changed them)
Old suspension if you want it, bilstein shocks
White gauge faces
Cloth interior most likely will go with it
All the extra parts (brake stuff, misc interior stuff, etc)


Im sure I'm forgetting things but I hit all the main ones. Now for some pictures,




TDI 5th

Receipt count the day I bought it,


As for the price, for everything mentioned I'm looking at around 8k for a cash price. But I'm also interested in trades so let me know what you have. I would prefer a trade + cash on my end, but straight up trade or putting cash on top for the right car is possible as well.

Things I would be most interested would be,

1990 - 1991 G60 5speed in very good DD condition (Ideally a G60 from March 1991). Engine swaps OK unless its a VR6
I'm an Aircooled guy, so a DD able Air cooled is possible as well
Building a 2165cc FI turbo engine, so Megasquirt type things are on the menu
I'll consider most VW vehicles for trade, but I'd REALLY Like a early Corrado. MKIII 2.0/ MKII also are high on the list.
I also like WRX's
Just don't try and trade me a lifted truck

Pricing update

Was doing some number crunching to see what I had in the car and I've come up with a few possible prices.

As is with all extra's
7000 OBO
Without longbeaches or E-codes (only borbets, brake stuff, and interior)
6500 OBO
Just the car w/ Borbets and extra interior
6000 OBO

(SOLD)

Do keep in mind, cash price would be OBO, and cash definitely talks! I'm just looking to get into something else other than a VR6. A solid G60 Corrado (Prefer stock or very clean) I may nearly straight trade for depending on the car. A 1.8T swap car would be very high on the list as well.

Few things I forgot to mention that I just thought about,
Car has a mishimoto external oil cooler
about 70k or so on the 3.0 conversion
Compression has been raised to 11.1 to 1 IIRC

Like I say Im open to a lot of trades, so long as its stock/Clean/not a MKIV/is a VW/Audi. 8K is just a relative number of what I have in the car, but a trade for a nice driver plus 1-3k would be fine with me. I want a slow DD and money to throw into my fun/track car

Any questions please ask!

Man nice SLC, nicely doc'd too. U should be able to find a nice trade for this. As far as a WRX goes dont take one unless you know what your getting yourself into haha, there money pits once modded.

Thanks man! I know for sure, my buddies are big into WRX's, I just want a stock one if any lol, maybe a few tiny mods. Every car I've owned was modded a lot, or I modded it myself, for once I just want a decent driver! lol


@vdubdrivenfool,

Shoot me a PM so we can talk a bit more about them, I'll look at the ads in detail later on, but I want to know whats up with the Rocco engine wise! But generally speaking, I could be interested in any of those three.

[Superveedub]

Bump for price change, I found something else I want to get into, lets talk cash deals! I also had a motor mount malfunction recently, which lead to the usual VR6 Corrado hood ding (very small). It also tore the mounting tabs off the radiator. I've changed the motor mount, but since the radiator is fine Im not going to touch it. Car is still very much drivable, I've driven it easily 200 miles this weekend alone. No hassles. Dropping to 7k cash OBO for damages on the hood and radiator.
