Volkswagen Corrado?
Posted by Anonymous on Thursday, March 18, 2004 9:51 PM
Hello everyone, me again. Everyone was so helpful last time that I've got to try again. I've got a friend that owns a 1990 VW Corrado and is looking for a scale model to match. He hasn't had any luck looking around hobby shops, but claims he saw one on Ebay once. That tells me there must be some out there somewhere! Does anyone have any idea where we can find this car in any scale, and by which manufacturer, and even more importantly, where we can buy one? Thanks very much.

I did some searching and found out that Revell of Germany made 3 models of this car a while back, but they are out of production now. Does anybody know where to find old models?

One place that I know that has alot of OOP kits is http://www.modelroundup.com/index.html

They also have pretty decent prices on them as well. Just have to look through all the pages as there is no search feature unfortunalty.

Looked at model roundup, it's not there. I'm also desperately looking for such a kit, but they are Super rare and, more to the point, super expensive.

If anybody has a source, I'd be really grateful...

Yeah, if anyone does, please post, as I didn't even realize a model of this car was ever manufactured...

Hey everyone, thanks for the feedback. I've been gone and havent had a chance to check in. I'm getting the same info from everybody it seems. Looks like Ebay is basically our only option. Does anyone have any info on what we could possibly do to get Revell to rerelease this kit? It seems like there are alot of other Corrado nuts out there. Let me know.

E-mail campaign? I do not know how effective those are...

But if they rerelease, I'l buy a couple (read 6-7), that's for sure!

But, as they say, I'm not holding my breath...!
