263 hp / 280 ft-lb torque on my MS3. What did the Corrado have?
Quite the turbo lag on the MS3 too. I found it to be dangerous in canyons / uneven roads, accelerating out of turns. Sure, you can handle it, but it would have been so much better with AWD or RWD.

I liked the car for being a sleeper - grocery getter looking thing that was pretty darn potent when you stepped on it. Reported 0-60 was just over 5s.
