While we were hanging out at Wookies in the Woods (an annual gathering of Volkswagen .:R32 and Golf R enthusiasts from all over the country at the Tail of the Dragon), we came across Danny's VR6 Swapped Corrado. There is no shortage of VR6 swapped cars at Wookies, but when Danny told us he had actually AWD Swapped his car as well, we were really interested. Then he told us he drove all the way from California... 35 HOURS AWAY... We had to grab our cameras and let him tell his story!

Too much emphasis on just sheer power now. I prefer driving dynamics as well. You can make a car go fast in a straight line but for me it’s gets old quickly.

@dannylanz6441 3 года назад

Just want to say thank you to the boys at DAP for this video, and the community for all the awesome and flattering comments both here and DMs in IG, I was blown away and really appreciate it. This car was built 99% for me and me alone, but that other 1% of people loving it does mean a hell of a lot!! I’m especially proud to inspire others to take on something challenging and build something special! I could not have built this car without the advice of good friends (you know who you are) and James and the crew at FourSeason Tuning, but ultimately I did build this thing almost 100% myself on Jack stands in my garage, and again, if I can do it anyone can 👊 Thank you again!

The Corrado is one car that VW should bring back. I remember seeing them all over the place when I was a kid. Now the last time I saw one was about 15 years ago. They're such good looking cars!

@SAVETHEMK4 3 года назад

That's my dude right there! Amazing build and more amazing human. True Corrado guy too. Went with his Dad to see it on the showroom floor when it was brand new in the early 90's, had one in high school, and now this!

@bjjbrawler1 2 года назад

His love for the Corrado obviously shows! I graduated in '91, and there was one guy in our school that had a Corrado. They weren't nearly as common as the GTI's, Fox'es, etc... I loved that car for it's looks and technology. The auto elevating wing was so cool!

I owned a '90 G60 and it's still by far my favorite car ever. This guy is a true Corrado guy, legit awesome build. I have neither the skill or patience to do this so my hats off to this guy. My dream is to own another Corrado at some point and considering the above I want to find one that someone has already done the work on and just enjoy it. Danny, if you ever want to sell let me know!

@rxtuninginc8444 3 года назад

The Corrado VR6 is my favorite VW. I'm not a VW fan either but I love that car. Wish I could find a clean one up here in Ontario, Canada. I don't even remember the last time I saw one on the road tbh.

Thumbs up for this and the custom fabrication of the rear. Excellent work. I would happily watch a one hour video of the entire build. I'm aiming at doing something similar to my Jetta and making it 4wd and adding a DSG. Lots of work but agreed that once you get into it, you build confidence. Cheers!
