People are making the usual mistake of saying an engine is crap based purely on facts and figures. Even the 2.8 VR6 in the Golf is a great engine, and yes, 174bhp isn't a lot for a 2.8 V6, but the torque figure is huge and it's more about the way it delivers the power, because it's isn't hard tuned it's very lazy with a huge power band, there's literally power at any revs. It's also a pretty special engine being the first V6 designed for FWD, it sounds amazing, and it's pretty bulletproof. A car is not about facts an figures, it's about how it feels to drive, and a Corrado VR6 is a great car for just that reason, silky smooth, torquey V6, great chassis, smooth ride,great steering, great looks. That's why their a modern classic.
All I'm saying is don't judge a car on facts and figures, drive it for yourself.
