i like the seats and gear gaiter is fine too, just steering wheel seems overkill, nice black one would work, yellow logo on it, but not big yellow bits. and same with gearknob.

i think front bumper would look better if side vents were functional too.

but overall, even with those minor issues, its a damn sight more tasteful and classy and less chav-spec than any S2RST ive ever seen.

A mate of mine had a Golf VR6 at the same time as I had my Rallye. I tell you now that a G60 with some minor mods (air-filter, stage 2 G-lader, remap and an exhaust) will absolutely stripe a VR6.

IMO the VR6's are a bit overrated. The G60 is the way to go everytime.

Oh and the Corrado looks pretty sweet BTW

Agreed
There's something about the corrado's, i quite like em
Only ever driven one when i worked for vee dub and that was a pristine dark green VR6, sounded great but think the Polo Sport 16V went better
The G60's sound wicked though

I'd say the VR6? Didn't they do one called the vr6 storm? not sure if it was anymore powerful than normal one but pretty sure the vr6's were circa 190bhp

oh and G60's were 160bhp.

There were two types of VR6, the 2.8 (found in the mk3 golf) which was circa 170bhp and the 2.9 found in the corrado's, 190odd.
