I like the look and the performance is also pretty good for a FWD car. Infact many of the auto magazines have said that it was the best handling FWD car for its time. If you get one get the VR6 engine, but make sure that it has been maintained. make sure that the head gasket does not leak or has been changed, the timing belt tensionerhas been replaced, especially if the car has close to 100K miles,once those have been done then the car should be good for another 100K or so miles. The tranny does not shift as good as the BMW's but the Corrado with the VR6 is faster than a stock E30 M3 in a straight line, the engine has plenty of torque and will rev easily to about 7500 with a chip. The build quality is not as good as the newer VW's or as a BMW but for a "FUN" everyday car it can't be beat. The Integra is also fun but has not torque and may feel more like a E30 M3 that needs to be reved. Good Luck and God Bless.
