A bit of a nerdy question but does anyone know the drag co-efficent of a corrado and does the differnt bonnet styles (flat g60 and vr6 bulge)change it.

Drag Co Efficient for Corrado G60 and Corrado VR6 = 0.32 from what I can find out they are the same!

Cheers RadoMan, I'm telling you the faster you go in a Rado the smoother it gets!!, I was coming up through France on the toll roads in the summer cruising at 145, and it was as smooth as butter!!, no pulling left or right, just pure driving pleasure

Yes I reckon if it was not for coming up on traffic, every few miles or every 30-40 secs, I could easily have soared past 150

wonder why mine stays the same when on 17's as it is on speedlines. suppose its just set so when the speedo hits a certain speed regardless of alloy size

VW as I understand it adjusted the Spoiler settings in certain countries as for those whose Spoiler was set to come up @70MPH were finding themselves landed with speeding tickets by the Police just for getting the Spoiler to raise up, so it was reduced to rise at lower speeds in some countries. Spoilers Up , just check for Police / Cameras first Ha Ha!!

Hows it goin matey.Is 44mph with standard alloys or a bigger size.Mine still comes up at 55mph with 17's aswell as 15's. Is that because the spoiler unit is set to the speedo.
